I like a warm innerwear.
When it comes to winter protection, we tend to focus on outerwear, such as jackets and electric heatwear, but we should not forget about innerwear!
Recently, it has become possible to keep warm to a certain extent just by wearing innerwear, for example, with the addition of heat-retaining ingredients. One of the most familiar ones is UNIQLO's HEATTECH, for example!
The warmer your innerwear is, the less you need to wear thicker clothing with outerwear and mid-wear, and the lighter you can ride.
In this article, I'll introduce you to the winter riding essentials of warm innerwear as well as summer's cold innerwear!
What is warm weather innerwear?
Even if we talk about warm innerwear, not all of them are the same, as each company uses a variety of materials and makes innovations. However, one thing that many garments have in common is that they are made on the principle of trapping the heat that people emit and keeping them warm.
In addition, many of our innerwear are designed to be windproof, as opposed to the usual warm innerwear, which is unique to motorcycles. Everyday innerwear often lack this ability to keep you warm. In addition, since humans sweat even in winter, high-functional clothing can absorb that sweat and convert it into heat, and prevent perspiration from getting cold by absorbing water and drying it quickly.
This is what warmth looks like the moment you put on your thermal innerwear! And that's the difference between it and a regular t-shirt.

Innerwear is the key to a comfortable winter ride!
The inner workings are on the fringes! In order to stay comfortable in winter, it is important to combine three types of clothing: outerwear such as riding jackets, windproof mids, and innerwear that is worn on the bare skin. The inner and mid-inner are often neglected because of their thin appearance, but they have a very important role to play in terms of their role. Let's think about the total winter clothing to achieve a comfortable winter and motorcycle!
Webike has a fierce little kid who spends the winter in a mesh jacket, but maybe he's good at using his inner and mid-inner wear.
