If you’re a biker, you already know that great get-up does a lot for your attitude with and on your two-wheeled commuter. The most conspicuous part of the said get-up has to be the shirt, and riders are always on the lookout for unique, durable designs that complement their personalities best.

Luckily, there are tons of good designs out there. From inscriptions to 3D art, shirts have evolved to each have unique vibes, and it should not be hard to find something that suits your personal style.

To help with the search for that one shirt that speaks to the biker in you, here’s a list of 15 awesome motorcycle shirts for men.

15 Awesome Motorcycle Shirts For Men

1. 1N23456 Motorcycle Gear Shift T-Shirt

Among the most popular motorcycle shirts, the 1N23456 gear shift shirt is very popular and our personal favorites. Reviewers like the shirt, with 3 of the 4 critics giving it a perfect rating. People love that non-riders don’t know what it means.

That may not be a win for everybody, but if you’re into inside jokes this shirt may be particularly enticing.

2. I Don’t Snore I Dream I’m A Motorcycle T-shirt

We’ve got to say, the IDSIDIAM tee makes an argument that is impossible to beat. Motorcycles don’t snore, they rev. But asides coming with one of the wittiest inscriptions we’ve seen, this tee delivers on quality and comfort 100 percent. It also comes in five solid colors, so you’re bound to find something that suits your style.

The shirt comes in sizes large enough to fit The Hulk, and that makes it a great option for any body size. It will fit to a tee, in more ways than one.

3. Hot Leathers Fire Bobber Long Sleeve T-Shirt (Black, X-Large)

Hot Leathers definitely have a thing for making the coolest, or in this case hottest, shirts for bikers. The Fire Bobber long sleeve is super-sturdy yet soft and breathable, and it is impossible to disagree that the hot flames print on the front, back and sleeves make this a staple for any biker. All this, plus the lightweight cotton material of the shirt, explains why it ended up on our list of top 15 tees for bikers.

If passersby report a fireball dashing through the streets on a bike, that may just be you in the Fire Bobber.

4. Heathen Black Chief T-Shirt

This shirt from Heathen is imprinted with a true-to-scale Indian Chief. The symbol has been closely related with motorcycles since the Indian Chief motorcycle range was founded in the early 90s. However, there’s nothing 90s about the quality and design of the Heathen tee, and the cotton material keeps you comfortable 24/7.

The fabric is thick enough to withstand heavy bike winds without stretching, but you may want to avoid washing the shirt with any other clothes, as the color is known to bleed.

A word of caution, however; if you’re not part of the one-percenter Heathen Motorcycle Club (and chances are you’re not), be sure that there aren’t any local Heathen MC chapters in your area, so you cause any trouble when all you’re doing is wearing a cool tee.

5. Motorcycle You Wouldn’t Understand T-Shirt for Bikers

The shirt says we wouldn’t, but we do understand that the You Wouldn’t Understand shirt is soft, comfortable and breathable. The design is super minimalist, and it comes in five versatile colors.

Heads up, the manufacturers recommend that you get a size larger than yours, as the fit of the shirt is super slim. Stick with that, and you’ll hopefully not have reason to join the customers that are complaining about the poor fit of the shirt.

We have to say though, that the manufacturer’s ‘lightweight’ description of this tee is actually our own ‘thin’, but maybe we just don’t understand.

6. Some Grandpas Play Bingo, Real Grandpas Ride Motorcycles T-Shirt Vintage Aged to Perfection T-Shirt

If you have a grandpa or a dad that is an ex-biker, then you will definitely blow his mind with this tee as a gift. It comes in a whopping eighteen colors so there’s something for every grandpa. The material is 100% preshrunk cotton, so best believe that the tee will not stretch or lose shape after wash and wear.

The Shirt Den, who are the manufacturers, are not green to the tee-shirt market, but they went the green way and printed these Grandpa shirts with eco-friendly inks that ensure our planet stays safe.

The shirts fit true to size, are super comfortable, and make for great gifts. If that’s not a winning combo, we don’t know what is.

7. Retro Vintage Motorcycle Tee-Shirt

If you’d love to be identified as a biker at one glance, when all else fails, go for this tee-shirt. With its retro motorcycle print displayed across the chest, all doubts will be cast away. If you’re also a die-hard fan of rare vintage motorcycles, that’s a huge plus- the bike depicted is a classic German BMW R25.

This tee is lightweight and comfortable, but you may want to order a size up as the fit runs small most times.

8. Biker Life USA You Would Be Loud Too T-Shirt

If you want a biker tee that makes a bold statement, look no further. The inscription speaks volumes about your confidence and would get more than a few heads turning.

Biker Life USA makes the best quality tee shirts, and they did not disappoint with this one. It is durable and true to size, and the printing is true to scale. Plus, the fabric does not fall apart after washing so you’re getting true value for your money, and then some (wink).

9. Biker Life USA Men’s American Rebel Biker T-Shirt

If a shirt looks great, feels great, and goes for a great price, then it is a total yes from us. Biker Life’s American Rebel tee does all that for us, hence, its listing in this out top 15 picks for awesome tees.

The material is lightweight and breathable, but like the You Wouldn’t Understand tee we featured above, this fabric runs a little thin. You could make it a summer wear, or layer it up with a jacket, because we don’t recommend that you pass on this shirt.

10. Brisco Brands is My Bike Okay? Motorcycle Biker T-Shirt

Brisco delivers on another head-turning shirt, and the unique design on this quality tee is sure to get some laughs. Because of the unisex cut, these motorcycle shirts are great to wear for all bikers.  It is super comfy and fits true to size, and the fabric is thick enough to withstand bike tough winds.

Although it comes in three staple colors, the shirt is super versatile and the cotton fabric is very comfortable. For the gram, and if you’re that versatile, do a cool headstand near your bike while wearing this shirt. Thank us later.

11. Ann Arbor My Retirement Plan Motorcycle Tee Shirt

Ann Arbor’s Retirement plan tee-shirt is 100 percent comfy, like all our other picks. The shirt is slightly tapered to be a little less loose than regular tee-shirts. It’s also preshrunk, so the fit remains the same even after washing.

Ann Arbor’s shirts are ringspun, 30/1 fine jersey knit on 100 percent USA-grown cotton, which is all code for they’re soft and smooth with a high thread count. High-quality ink means you don’t lose the cool inscription to machine or hand wash, and you’d not be having any cracks on your cool tee.

12. Biker Life USA Men’s Born to Ride/Ride to Live T-Shirt

Biker Life’s Born To Ride tee, like all of the others, has a perfect quality, good fit, and great colors.

If anything, it’s a great biker vibe, and the soft hand-printed ink ensures that the print remains clear after continuous wash and wear. Jump on your two-wheeler in this statement tee and show what you’ve got.  Just make sure you’ve got the skills to back your bold claim up.

13. Hot Leathers Ride or Die Skull Sleeveless Shirt (Black, X-Large)

If you’re a Rick or a Buck, this shirt is custom made for you. Just kidding though, this is perfect for any biker and has to be a wardrobe staple. The frayed sleeves make a fashion statement that only bikers can pull off, and although the material runs a little thin, it is great to wear for riders.

Hot Leathers’ sizing on the Ride or Die shirt was off-kilter, so maybe order two sizes up so you don’t end up with a cool shirt that you cannot wear.

14. 6TN Motorcycle Club T-Shirt

Induct yourself into a motorcycle club with this cool tee by 6TN. Great fit, great material, great price, and the classic biker statement, and it’s a yes for us. 6TN promises durability of the cotton fabric, and it comes with a tagless tag so you don’t feel the annoying label behind your neck.

The cotton wicks away sweat and keeps you feeling fresh all day.

15. Biker Life USA Men’s I Love It When My Wife Motorcycle T-Shirt

Who runs the world? Girls. Biker Life acknowledges this fact with this cool tee-shirt that pays its dues. From a distance, all you can see is I Love My Motorcycle, but upon a closer look, it becomes I Love It When My Wife Lets Me Use My Motorcycle.
