3-LAYER MOUNTAIN BIKE JACKET
Added warmth and waterproof protection for cold, wet UK rides
The BlackLine 3-Layer MTB Trail Jacket is built for colder, wetter days when a lightweight shell is not enough. Its warmer three-layer construction, waterproof outer coating, taped internal seams, helmet-compatible oversized hood and longer riding cut provide dependable protection without the bulk or price tag of traditional premium-brand MTB jackets.
3-layer MTB Trail Jacket: frequently asked questions
Is the 3-layer MTB Trail Jacket waterproof?
Yes. It uses a waterproof outer coating and taped internal seams to help keep rain and trail spray out. The warmer three-layer construction makes it particularly well suited to colder, wetter rides.
What is the difference between the 3-layer and 2-layer Trail Jackets?
The 3-layer jacket adds warmth and extra weather protection for cold and wet conditions. The 2-layer version is lighter and better suited to mixed conditions or riders who prefer to control warmth with their own layers.
Is the 3-layer jacket suitable for winter mountain biking?
Yes. It was designed for colder UK trail conditions, combining waterproof protection with a warmer construction. You can adjust what you wear underneath according to the temperature and intensity of the ride.
Will the hood fit over my mountain bike helmet?
Yes. The oversized hood is designed to fit neatly over a trail helmet, giving you extra coverage when the weather turns.
What size should I choose?
Choose your normal size for a closer riding fit. If you are between sizes, plan to wear winter layers underneath or prefer a looser feel, we recommend sizing up.

Another excellent product from Blackline clothing, so glad I sized up on the 3 layer, just gives that little bit more room. The change to have an oversized hood was a good choice. The colours are better in person than on the photos.
Hey Stuart,
Late getting around to this one - thanks for taking the time to leave a review and thanks for being an awesome customer.

The smock looks 👌🏻, good fit easy to get on and off and is very well built for the cost. As for breathability I can't answer that as I haven't worn it riding yet as it still a bit mild.
Great jacket ,fits really well and quick delivery,one downside it could do with a zip on the chest pocket
Super happy with my purchase, great looking jacket with nice quality anda good fit. I almost dont want to get mud on it 😜
Great jacket, great price point, sold my more expensive jacket as I prefer this one…..
Very happy overall but there are a few issues.
It is a very warm jacket but not very breathable and can get very wet inside unless the weather is cold enough to not break into too much of a sweat.
The sizing is excellent and true to size but could be improved if the back was longer than the front like most of the other better known brands. To be fair though the price of this jacket makes it fantastic value in comparison. Waterproofing seems good. Came back covered in mud today and used a hosepipe to clean it as I didn’t want to use detergent on it just yet. Nothing got through!
Great fit,looks mint , great value for money ,why pay double for lesser quality jacket .love it .thanks guys .
Great coat. Lovely and warm wicked water proof
Amazing service and amazing jacket perfect for this time of year.
What a fabulous jacket. Its warm and its dry, it fits really well although i had to get a 2xl when im normally between a L and an XL. Equally its very stylish but ibe not worn it on the bike yet as its defo more for the winter. Perfect for those autumnal mornings walking to work though.
Good fit and seems well made. Very warm (could do with more venting zips). only real disappointment is that the DWR is almost non existent, its wets out very easily.
I have now sprayed it with Gtechniq to give it better repellency to make it more suited to a UK winter ride.
Hey Steve,
Ah no way, we’re super surprised/disappointed you’ve had a poor experience with the jacket. It’s very rare but sounds like there may have been a reduced coating of the DWR which we’ve fed back to our supplier. These coats were tested in Welsh monsoons where we stayed bone dry.
That said the main waterproofing Defense is the internal PU layer vs the external DWR coating, you’ve done the right thing with a reproofing agent as that’ll help increase the longevity of the jacket 10-fold, but you should still be staying dry internally thanks to the membrane.
Have dropped ya an email.
Quality is superb! So much so I've ordered a second jacket for off the bike. This meant returning my original order and sizing up which was painless with great comms from Alex. Will be trying out the 2 layer next and look forward to future products
Brilliant product, great price and highly recommend 👌😎
Great price great jacket now that autumn is on our doorstep, I was going for a fox jacket but this came up and I thought I would give it a try, so glad I did and got the gloves too which were perfect, up at fort William in Scotland this weekend so will give it a good try out

Cracking trail jacket, perfect for the autumn / winter season. Great quality, lots of storage pockets in the right place and a generous hood to ensure coverage of your helmet in the rain 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey Nik,
Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We looove the trail jackets, glad you do to! Sadly looks like the hood will be back in use quite regularly now the summers heading off.
This jacket is literally too nice to ride trails in! Super comfy, smart and light weight. Will be perfect for that wet windy weather on the trails in Wales! Cheers guys!
Just the best jacket !!
Possibly too good to wear for biking, and can’t wait to try it out in wet conditions.
Really happy, thank you. ⭐️
