Top 10 Motorcycle Gear Brands
TOP 10 best brands of motorcycle equipment
10 SPYKE
Country: Italy
Rating (2022): 4.3
Protection is the main function of motorcycle equipment. Style and design fade into the background, although they are extremely important. The Italian company SPYKE pays special attention to protection. On the company's site, there are entire laboratories involved in the development of new technologies and materials. According to the terms of the company, clothes should combine: the quality of tailoring, the best safety indicators and the most extensive range. Add to this the Italians' innate sense of style, and we get one of the best motorcycle equipment of its time.
This company did not take the first place in the rating only because of the relatively high average price tag and the scarcity of the produced arsenal. For example, the company does not produce helmets, but it does have universal overalls and jackets that are suitable for both professional athletes and simple lovers of two-wheeled vehicles.
9 IXS Motorcycle Fashion
Country: Switzerland
Rating (2022): 4.3
Speaking about products from Switzerland, associations with the highest quality immediately arise, and the IXS Motorcycle Fashion brand is a direct proof of this. The company was founded over a hundred years ago. Then her field of activity was the repair of motorcycles and bicycles. Later, an import direction appeared, and in the 70s the company was appointed the official representative of Yamaha in Switzerland.But the owners did not stop, but began to produce their own clothing line. Motorcycle gear quickly became the mainstream, and the main distinguishing feature is the best quality and no compromises.
In the world of sports, the manufacturer is well known. He often sponsors teams and individual racers, but among ordinary users, not everyone can boast of having protection with this logo. It's about the price. It is much higher than even the most popular brands. But there's nothing you can do about it. Only the best materials, only the most advanced technology, only perfect protection. And as a result, only positive feedback from customers, if they do not concern the price.
8 Hein Gericke
Country: Germany
Rating (2022): 4.4
In the distant 70s of the last century, a young German named Hein Gerrik opened his first shop selling motorcycle accessories. He sold various goods, and rather quickly the lonely store became a chain. And just 10 years later, it was decided to completely switch to the trade in motorcycle equipment and announced the start of developing their own clothing line. Then, few people paid attention to the statements of an ambitious entrepreneur, and global brands only grinned. But not for long. By the beginning of the new millennium, the company gained popularity far beyond the borders of Germany, and soon left the borders of Europe, starting to develop the complex and competitive American market.
Surprisingly, things went uphill, and many American publications called Hein Gericke motorcycle equipment the best of its kind. Both protection and style were taken into account here.The reviews were simply amazing, and today motorcyclists from the CIS can also enjoy the company's products. Stores and representative offices of the brand are open in many major cities, and the feedback from Russian buyers is also extremely positive.
7 BLAUER
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.5
Each manufacturer of motorcycle equipment goes its own way. Someone founds racing teams to attract investments, someone sponsors world racers, and some, such as BLAUER, go into direct contact with the authorities. For the firm, this resulted in huge contracts. The company received an order to develop uniforms for US police patrols on motorcycles. By that time, the brand was already quite popular in certain circles, but it was these contracts that brought it to a whole new level.
Until now, BLAUER creates motorcycle equipment for special services, but does not forget about ordinary lovers of two-wheeled vehicles. In the arsenal of the company there are huge collections of various clothes. There are comfortable lightweight gear for racers, and strict leather items for bikers. In addition, it is a huge network of retail stores around the world. The brand is known far beyond the United States, and its products are often called the best of its kind on specialized resources. Apparently, the accumulated experience of working with special services was not in vain for the company.
6 Fox Head Inc.
Country: USA
Rating (2022): 4.5
The Fox Head brand originates in the USA in the mid-70s of the last century. Then a small company was engaged in the import of European motorcycles to America.Gradually, she switched to her own production of components and body kits for bikes, and later to the manufacture of motorcycle equipment. The creation of their own clothing line began with the organization of a racing team that demonstrated the brand's products. She was distinguished by bright, flashy colors and defiant prints. In those prim years, this seemed unacceptable, but the people quickly fell in love with the new style.
Over the years, Fox Head has shifted entirely to racing gear, and today they also have racing-inspired clothing lines for everyday wear. The company's products are often called the best and these are reviews from both ordinary users and professionals. The protection is top notch, and the acid styling has become a trademark of the company, along with the fox face being the logo.
5 INFLAME
Country: Russia (produced in China)
Rating (2022): 4.6
Not all motorcycle enthusiasts consider themselves professionals, and not everyone has the opportunity to spend fabulous sums on motorcycle equipment, which, moreover, cannot be used outside the context of the bike. Especially for such people there is a Russian brand INFLAME, which produces clothes for trips on two wheels and everyday wear. Versatility is the strong point of the company. Jackets and trousers can be worn in everyday life, but they are also full protection.
Reviews about the company's products are extremely positive, and yes, in some aspects it is inferior to global firms, but the price tag here is several times lower. The brand does not hide the fact that all clothes are produced by Chinese enterprises, and Russia is only the birthplace of the brand and the developer of the appearance.However, for such an inexpensive outfit, the quality can be safely called the best, which is also written a lot in reviews on specialized resources. INFLAME is a great opportunity to save money without sacrificing quality.
4 madbull
Country: Russia
Rating (2022): 4.7
Not only European and American companies are awarded the title of the best manufacturers of motorcycle equipment. There are also Russian brands on this list, which not only adequately compete with the mastodons of the market, but also outstrip them in some respects. For example, for the price. The cost of a full set of protection from MadBull is much lower than that of any Italian brand. At the same time, it is practically not inferior in quality, as evidenced by numerous positive customer reviews.
The same reviews praise the wide range of the company. Under the brand, boots, turtles, overalls, knee pads and elbow pads are produced. That is full body protection. The company is relatively young, but already mastering the world markets. While the company's logo is not found on the jackets of famous racers or billboards of sporting events, but as the company is sure, this is a matter of time. Let's hope that this is the case, and the young, Russian company will still be able to climb to the very top of the ranking of the best motorcycle equipment.
3 Daytona
Country: Germany-US
Rating (2022): 4.8
Most of us know Daytona as a global sporting event, and only a narrow circle of professionals and ardent lovers of two-wheeled vehicles know that it is also a motorcycle equipment brand, or rather two brands. The first is a German company that manufactures Frey Daytona protection.And the second is the American brand Daytona Helmets, which produces exclusively helmets of the original design and shape.
A US manufacturer specializes in half and three-quarter open chin helmets. This protection is especially popular with bikers. In addition, it is possible to order an exclusive version according to your own sketches. Daytona from Germany is considered by many to be the best manufacturer of motorcycle equipment. Their strong point is a complete set of uniforms, and the brand's shoes are especially popular. The most thoughtful, high-quality and the most comfortable. The coincidence of the names of brands and the racing event is not accidental. The German company is directly related to racing, and the American one is simply located in the city of the same name.
2 Acerbis
Country: Italy
Rating (2022): 4.8
The Italian manufacturer Acerbis knows exactly what reliable protection is. Initially, the company was engaged in the production of plastic body kits for motorcycles and cars. Later, it launched the production of clothing and today is one of the leaders in this industry. Acerbis motorcycle gear allows you to fully dress the rider from head to toe. The range of the company is simply huge. There are also shoes and turtles. The company also produces helmets, which is rare among similar firms.
In addition, Acerbis is the official sponsor of several racing teams and their logo is emblazoned on the uniforms of world-famous racers. This leaves a certain imprint on the price tag, but the quality here is the best. Unlike less well-known manufacturers, this brand does not delegate its production to Asian countries.Everything is produced exclusively in Europe and only under the strict supervision of the brand owners. When buying such motorcycle equipment, you can be completely sure of its highest quality, and for this it is not a sin to overpay a little.
1 Alpinestars
Country: Italy
Rating (2022): 4.9
All fans of sports and motorcycles have heard about this brand. The most advertised manufacturer with worldwide fame. Official supplier of several teams and athletes. The company regularly cooperates with various competition organizers and their logo is invariably emblazoned on billboards and equipment.
At the same time, the quality of the products produced is at the highest level. We can safely say that we have the best motorcycle equipment in front of us, and it has been produced for more than 50 years. It all started with the manufacture of shoes for cross-country, but with the growing popularity of two-wheeled vehicles and competitions on it, the company's range also grew. Today Alpinestars makes everything but helmets. They have both full-fledged overalls made specifically for a particular athlete, and equipment modules: knee pads, elbow pads and turtles. Clothing from Alpinestars has no cons, except for the price, but it is also easily explained by the popularity of the company. Extensive advertising strategy and doing their job. Besides, who refuses to show off on his bike in the same jacket as the best riders on the planet.
