The Alpinestars Tailwind Air Waterproof Jacket combines advanced technical features with versatile comfort, making it an ideal choice for serious motorcyclists. Crafted from durable 600D polyester fabric with a PU coating, this jacket offers reliable weather resistance and longevity. The extended high-performance mesh panels on the chest, back, and sleeves enhance airflow, helping keep riders cool during long rides or in warmer conditions. Strategically placed shoulder accordion stretch panels are designed to accommodate the Alpinestars airbag system, providing expansion when deployed while maintaining an excellent fit during regular riding without the system fitted. This integration ensures rider safety without sacrificing comfort or mobility.
The jacket is Tech-Air® compatible, allowing seamless integration with the world’s first fully electronic, self-contained upper body airbag system. An embedded LED display on the sleeve indicates the operational status of the airbag, while an internal housing in the back protector is designed to hold the system’s ECU securely. The detachable waterproof membrane adds all-weather versatility, enabling riders to adapt to changing conditions effortlessly. Multiple elasticated adjusters on the sleeves and a waist adjustment system facilitate a personalized fit, reducing fatigue and enhancing comfort during extended rides. The ergonomic touring collar and pre-curved sleeves are engineered for optimal rider comfort and reduced fatigue, while padded areas on the sleeves increase impact protection and rider comfort.
Practicality is a key feature of the Tailwind Air Waterproof Jacket, with two front kangaroo pouch-style pockets and a zippered chest pocket for essentials. An innovative collar construction with rubberized fabric edging and a brushed tricot lining prevents chafing, offering a comfortable riding experience. The waist connection zipper allows attachment to Alpinestars riding pants for a seamless riding suit. Reflective prints on the back improve visibility at night, enhancing safety. Additional impact protection is provided by Bio Armor shoulder and elbow protectors, and the jacket’s compartments are designed to accommodate optional Nucleon chest and back inserts for extra safety. Overall, this jacket offers a perfect blend of protection, comfort, and weather resilience for the modern motorcyclist.
