The Alpinestars AST v2 Air Jacket in black and white combines advanced safety features with superior comfort for motorcycle riders. Designed with the rider's safety and performance in mind, this jacket is compatible with the Tech-Air® 5 airbag system, the world's first fully electronic, self-contained upper body motorcycle airbag system. The jacket's construction incorporates strategically positioned stretch panel inserts that allow for expansion when the airbag inflates, ensuring optimal fit and protection. These panels also provide a high level of anatomical performance and flexibility when riding without the system fitted, making it a versatile choice for riders seeking both safety and comfort.
Constructed from durable 600 Denier poly-fabric, the jacket offers excellent resistance to abrasion and wear. Extensive mesh panels are strategically placed on the front, back, and arms to promote optimal airflow, helping to keep the rider cool during long rides. The jacket features removable Nucleon Flex protectors in the elbows and shoulders that are lightweight, sleek, and designed to provide exceptional impact resistance. For added durability, the shoulders are reinforced with GP Lite panels, specifically engineered for superior abrasion resistance in high-risk areas. The jacket also includes adjustable chest and back pad compartments with comfort padding, allowing riders to upgrade with Alpinestars Nucleon back and chest protectors for enhanced safety.
Designed with rider comfort in mind, the sleeves are pre-curved to fit naturally in riding positions, reducing fatigue and discomfort during extended use. The volume adjustment system on the sleeves utilizes hook-and-loop closures for a personalized fit and to help maintain proper positioning of the elbow protectors. The elongated rear profile combined with hook-and-loop D-ring waist adjustments enhances riding comfort and customization. Additional features include external zippered hand pockets for secure storage, a moisture-wicking textile comfort edge on the collar and cuffs for added comfort, reflective details for visibility, and auto-locking zippers for durability and safety. This jacket provides a comprehensive balance of protection, ventilation, and adjustability for the dedicated motorcyclist.
