Winter Motorcycle Jackets for Men and Women
At 5 °C, on a motorbike it feels below freezing. These jackets keep you warm, dry and protected all winter.
A winter motorcycle jacket has to block the wind, keep the rain out and insulate you from the cold without giving up protection. Every jacket on this page has a removable thermal lining and CE protectors, and almost all of them add a waterproof membrane.
How cold is it when you ride?
Mild cold, city
10 to 15 °C
Short trips and traffic lights. An urban jacket with thermal lining and membrane is enough.

How to choose a winter motorcycle jacket
Warmth is not just about the lining: heat escapes through the gaps. These are the three points to check before you buy.
Where your heat escapes
- 1. Collar
This is where most cold air gets in. Look for a collar that closes well (velcro, neoprene or fur) and, when it is very cold, add a neck warmer. - 2. Cuffs
They need to adjust so the glove sits over the sleeve, with no gap at the wrist. - 3. Waist
Hip adjusters and a zip to connect the jacket to your trousers, so no air gets in at your back when you lean forward.
Beyond the closures, look at these four things:
Warmth
Removable thermal lining
This is what insulates you from the cold. Being removable matters: you wear it in January and take it out in April without changing jackets. Several Invictus models use a 100 g lining (Heracles, Heracles Dakar, Ragnar and Lagertha). If that is not enough, add a thin thermal base layer underneath rather than two hoodies, which are bulky and do not stop the wind.
Rain
Waterproof membrane or water-resistant fabric
They are not the same. A waterproof membrane (such as Reissa) keeps water out even in sustained rain; a water-resistant fabric handles a shower but not a long downpour. Getting wet is what really chills you, so if you ride in the rain, look for a membrane and sealed zips.
Cut
Short or three-quarter
A three-quarter jacket covers your lower back and hips and is warmer on the road and on bikes where you sit upright. A short jacket is more agile for the city, scooters or naked bikes. For winter road riding, go three-quarter; for daily city use, either works with a good lining.
Protection
EN 17092 certification and EN 1621-1 protectors
The whole garment is certified to EN 17092, in classes AAA, AA, A, B and C (AAA is the highest). Each protector is certified separately to EN 1621-1, at Level 1 or Level 2. Check whether the back protector is included or sold separately: the Heracles, Ragnar, Aquiles 2 and Lagertha include it as standard.

Not sure about your size?
Measure yourself with your winter layers on
In winter you ride with the lining in and an extra layer or two. Measure chest, waist and arm with those clothes on and, if you are between two sizes, go for the larger one.

Frequently asked questions
about winter motorcycle jackets
What is the best motorcycle jacket for winter?
For winter, the best motorcycle jacket combines a thermal lining, a waterproof membrane and good closures at the collar, cuffs and waist. If you ride in cold and rain, a three-layer jacket such as the Heracles or the Tulkas is the most complete option. For the road, a three-quarter jacket such as the Ragnar; for the city, an urban jacket with a lining such as the Lannister or the Atlas.
What is a three-layer motorcycle jacket?
It is a jacket made of three independent layers: an abrasion-resistant shell, a waterproof and windproof middle membrane, and an inner thermal lining. You combine them as you need: all three in winter, no lining in spring and autumn, and just the shell in summer. The Invictus three-layer jackets are the Heracles, the Heracles Dakar, the Tulkas and the Tulkas Women.
Does a winter motorcycle jacket need to be waterproof?
It is highly recommended. Getting wet is what chills you most on a bike, because water and wind together strip away your body heat very quickly. A waterproof membrane keeps water out even in sustained rain, while a fabric that is only water-resistant handles a short shower. Almost all Invictus winter jackets have a membrane; the Aquiles 2 is water-resistant without a membrane.
Is a short or three-quarter jacket better for winter?
A three-quarter jacket is warmer, because it covers your lower back and hips and stops air getting in at your back, so it is the best choice for road riding and trips. A short jacket is more comfortable for the city, scooters or naked bikes. If you ride every day in town, a short jacket with a thermal lining and membrane is enough.
What certification should a winter motorcycle jacket have?
The whole jacket is certified to EN 17092, which has classes AAA, AA, A, B and C, with AAA the highest. Protectors are certified separately to EN 1621-1, at Level 1 or Level 2. All Invictus winter jackets have CE shoulder and elbow protectors; check each product page to see whether the back protector is included or optional.
Can I use my winter jacket for the rest of the year?
Yes, if the thermal lining is removable. Without it, the jacket works for autumn and spring, and on three-layer jackets you can also remove the membrane for warm days. Every jacket on this page has a removable thermal lining, and some, such as the Ares and the Atlas, add mesh panels for when it warms up.
What size motorcycle jacket should I get if I wear layers underneath?
Measure your chest, waist and arm length wearing the layers you will use in winter and compare them with each model’s size guide. If you are between two sizes, go for the larger one: with the lining in and a thermal layer you will be more comfortable. Size exchanges are free at Invictus.
How much does a good winter motorcycle jacket cost?
A winter motorcycle jacket with a thermal lining, waterproof membrane and CE protectors usually costs between €120 and €250 in the mid-range. At Invictus they range from €125 for the Atlas to €179.95 for the Heracles Dakar and the Tulkas Women, with free shipping and free size exchange.
Where do you lose the most heat when riding in winter?
Through the gaps: the collar, the cuffs and the join between jacket and trousers, where air gets in when you lean forward. That is why you want a jacket with a collar that closes well, cuffs that adjust over your gloves and a zip to connect it to your trousers. A good pair of winter gloves completes the kit.
Do you have women’s winter motorcycle jackets?
Yes. The Lagertha is a three-quarter jacket with a 100 g thermal lining, Reissa membrane and back protector included; the Tulkas Women is a fully waterproof three-layer jacket for riding in cold and rain all winter.
