Fox MTB Jerseys

(136 products)

A good MTB jersey (sometimes called an MTB shirt) is cut looser than a road jersey so you can move freely and wear pads underneath, with tougher fabrics that handle trail abrasion. We stock mountain bike jerseys in short, 3/4 and long sleeve, from Fox, Leatt and more.

What's the difference between an MTB jersey and a road jersey?

Road jerseys are cut tight for aerodynamics and have rear pockets; MTB jerseys are looser for mobility and to fit protective gear, with tougher fabrics and reinforced stitching for trail conditions. If you mostly ride trails, an MTB jersey will be more comfortable and last longer.

Short sleeve, 3/4 or long sleeve?

Short sleeve suits hot, humid riding and pairs well with a UPF rating for the Australian summer. Long sleeve adds sun protection and guards your arms against branches and trail rash — and breathable fabrics mean you don't necessarily ride hotter. 3/4 sleeve sits in between and works well with elbow pads. Many riders own more than one.

Loose fit or race fit?

Loose (relaxed) fit gives more room for movement and pads, and is what most trail and enduro riders prefer. Race fit is closer-cut and better for cross-country racing where a flapping jersey costs you. Fox's Defend runs relaxed, Flexair runs slightly more fitted.

Do I need an MTB-specific jersey for Australian conditions?

For trail riding in the Australian heat, a breathable MTB jersey with good sun coverage earns its place.

Moisture-wicking fabric keeps you cooler than a cotton t-shirt, a longer back hem keeps you covered on the bike, and the durable construction survives the scrub.

Our team rides these trails too, so come into our Heidelberg, Hallam or Hoppers Crossing stores to try sizing before you buy.

FAQs

Do Fox MTB jerseys run true to size?

Broadly yes, but fit varies by range.

Ranger is cut closest to casual wear, so most riders take their usual size. Defend is a relaxed trail fit and accommodates MTB guards. Flexair is the most athletic, slightly closer-cut than the other two.

If you're between sizes or plan to wear pads underneath, sizing up is the safe call.

And because we have stores in Heidelberg, Hallam and Hoppers Crossing, you can try one on before you buy.

Can I wear elbow pads or armour under a Fox jersey?

Yes. Defend's relaxed fit is designed with pads and armour in mind, and Flexair's stretch fabric will go on over body armour despite the closer cut.

Long-sleeve versions leave room for thinner elbow pads; if you run heavier armour, the Defend is the easier fit.

What's the difference between Ranger, Defend and Flexair?

Ranger is the casual, versatile, everyday range. Defend is the toughest, built for enduro and gravity with reinforced panels and a relaxed fit for pads. Flexair is the lightest and most breathable, with a more fitted cut for hot days and racing. There's a fuller breakdown in the sections above.

How do I care for a Fox MTB jersey?

Wash cool and avoid the tumble dryer — the technical fabrics last longest air-dried, and heat can shorten the life of moisture-wicking and stretch properties. Check the care label on your specific jersey.

Does Fox make women's and youth MTB jerseys?

Yes. You'll find women's-cut Fox jerseys in our women's MTB jerseys collection. For the full brand range across fits and sleeve lengths, browse all MTB jerseys.
