FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for summer riding?
With the thermal liner removed and ensuring proper ventilation, the jacket can be used in warmer conditions due to its breathable construction. However, for extreme heat, dedicated summer jackets may offer better airflow.
How do I clean the jacket?
Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild technical outerwear detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Air dry only.
What is the CE certification for?
CE certification indicates that the jacket meets specific safety and performance standards required for protective motorcycle apparel in Europe, including impact protection.
Can I connect this jacket to riding pants?
Yes, this jacket is compatible with most Alpinestars riding pants via an internal waist zipper for a secure connection. Please check the compatibility of specific pant models.
How often should I reapply the DWR treatment?
The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's recommended to reapply when water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.
What is the warranty period for this jacket?
Warranty information can vary by region and retailer. Please refer to the product documentation or contact the point of purchase for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment to the outer shell. Ensure all seams and zippers are properly sealed.
Jacket feels too warm
Remove the internal thermal liner. Ensure the main zipper and ventilation zippers (if present) are open.
Zipper is difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and water. Apply a graphite pencil to the teeth or a silicone-based lubricant for smoother operation.
Fit feels restrictive during movement
Ensure the stretch panels are properly aligned and not bunched. Adjust sleeve and waist closures. Confirm the correct size has been selected.
