The Alpinestars AST v3 Air Jacket is engineered for superior rider comfort and advanced climate control, making it an ideal choice for high-performance motorcycling. Featuring dual tech mesh and strategic laser perforations across the chest, back, and sleeves, this jacket ensures optimal airflow and temperature regulation during demanding rides. The extensive laser perforations are complemented by 2D mesh stretch inserts on the front, sleeves, and back, which enhance ventilation and promote a cooling effect even in hot conditions. The inclusion of strategically positioned stretch inserts allows for unrestricted movement, providing high levels of mobility essential for aggressive riding positions and quick maneuvers.
Designed with a sport fit, the jacket offers an elongated rear section that provides better coverage and wind protection when in riding posture. The aerodynamically engineered cuff design reduces drag and pressure, improving comfort and performance, especially when worn with Alpinestars gloves. An integrated no-flap low collar minimizes pressure on the neck, prevents helmet chafing, and eliminates flapping at high speeds. Additionally, extensive stretch panels on the sides of the torso and upper back enable an adaptive fit while maximizing shoulder movement, which is particularly beneficial in a racing crouch.
Constructed with multi-panel 450D polyfabric, the Alpinestars AST v3 Air Jacket combines durability, comfort, and abrasion resistance to withstand tough riding conditions. The strategically placed accordion stretch panels are designed to accommodate Alpinestars Airbag System, allowing for expansion during airbag deployment while maintaining an anatomical fit. The pre-curved elbow construction reduces rider fatigue by providing a natural riding posture, and adjustable cuff and waist straps allow for a customized fit. Practical features include internal and external pockets for storage, and the jacket is compatible with Tech-Air® 7x, Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA, and Tech-Air® 3 airbag systems, offering enhanced safety options for serious riders.
