MEN'S COLLECTION

Men's MTB Clothing: Jerseys, Pants, Gloves & Layers

The men's mountain bike collection at Foxracing.si brings together the riding kit men wear on the trail: MTB pants and shorts, jerseys, gloves, base layers and windbreakers. It covers everything from summer trail rides and bike park laps to cold, wet shoulder-season days, and is aimed at riders of every level, from beginners buying their first proper kit to enduro and downhill regulars replacing worn-out gear.

What you'll find in this category

  • MTB pants – shorts and long trail pants cut for a bike position, with room for knee pads and hard-wearing fabric where it matters.
  • MTB jerseys – short and long sleeve tops in breathable, quick-drying fabric with a loose trail fit.
  • Gloves – thin, grippy summer gloves and warmer models for cold rides, with silicone fingertips for brake and touchscreen control.
  • First layers and underwear – base layers, liner shorts with chamois and long underpants that manage sweat and add warmth under your kit.
  • Windbreakers – packable wind and shower-resistant jackets for descents, early starts and changeable mountain weather.

How to choose men's MTB clothing

  • Fit and discipline: trail and enduro kit is cut loose for pads and movement; XC riders usually prefer a closer, lighter fit. Check that shorts have enough length to overlap knee pads.
  • Sizing: use the brand's size chart and measure your waist and chest. Shorts with an adjustable waist ratchet or hook closure give the most flexibility between layers.
  • Fabric: polyester and stretch woven fabrics dry fast and resist abrasion; mesh panels at the back and under the arms keep you cool on climbs.
  • Padding and comfort: longer rides are far more comfortable with a chamois liner short worn under your outer shorts.
  • Layering: a base layer next to skin, jersey over it and a packable windbreaker in your pack covers most conditions without overheating.
  • Protection details: reinforced seams, abrasion-resistant panels and glove palms with extra material stand up better to crashes and bike park use.
  • Season: ventilated shorts and short-sleeve jerseys for summer; long pants, long-sleeve jerseys and thermal base layers for spring and autumn.

FAQ

What should I wear for mountain biking?

A breathable MTB jersey, trail shorts or pants over a chamois liner short, gloves, and a packable windbreaker for descents and cooler weather. In spring and autumn add a long-sleeve base layer.

Do I need padded shorts for mountain biking?

For rides over about an hour, a padded liner short worn under your outer shorts makes a clear difference in comfort and helps prevent chafing. Many riders skip the padding only for short bike park laps.

What size MTB shorts should I buy?

Measure your waist and compare it with the brand's size chart rather than relying on your jeans size. If you ride with knee pads, choose shorts long enough to overlap them when seated.

Should MTB jerseys be loose or tight?

Trail, enduro and downhill jerseys are cut loose so they move freely and fit over protection; XC and marathon riders often pick a closer fit for less flapping at speed.

Are MTB gloves necessary?

They improve grip on the bars in sweat and rain, reduce hand fatigue and protect your palms in a crash, which is why most riders wear them year-round.
