A multi-rider vehicle retention apparel system includes a jacket and one or more gloves. The jacket includes loop fasteners on the front face of the jacket, on both the left and right sides. The gloves have palms covered with hook fasteners able to releasably attach to the loop fasteners on the jacket. In use, the jacket may be worn by a vehicle operator, and the gloves may be worn by a rider seated behind the operator. Using the gloves, the rider may be able to very securely hold onto the operator while riding on the vehicle, reducing fear of losing grip.

A garment includes a first material layer including a first surface, a second material layer laminated to the first material layer, where the second material layer includes a second surface, and a laminate material disposed in a non-continuous manner between the first and second surfaces of the first and second material layers. An amount of laminate material disposed between the first and second material layers varies at different zones defined along the first surface of the first material layer. The laminate material can be applied via a dot lamination process so as to form an array of laminate dots that varies by one or more of spacing between laminate dots, dimensions of laminate dots and shapes of laminate dots at the different zones.
