FAQs

Is the Drystar® liner removable?

Yes, the jacket features a three-layer 'liner to drop' system, allowing the Drystar® liner (and the thermal liner) to be removed individually or together for climate control.

Can I wear this jacket without any liners?

Yes, the jacket can be worn with both liners removed. This configuration maximizes airflow through the extensive ventilation panels for very warm conditions.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

Hand wash the liners separately with mild soap and cold water, then hang dry. Wipe the outer shell with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the membrane and coatings.

What is the benefit of the 'liner to drop' system?

This system allows you to easily adapt the jacket's thermal and waterproof properties to suit changing weather conditions, making it a true all-season garment.

Is the armor included with the jacket?

Yes, the jacket comes with Level 2 CE Nucleon Flex Pro shoulder and elbow armor for impact protection.

Can I install a back protector?

The jacket is designed with a pocket for a back protector, and it is compatible with Alpinestars Nucleon back protectors (sold separately).

What does 'Tech-Air® Ready' mean?

'Tech-Air® Ready' means the jacket has been designed with internal space and connection points to accommodate and operate an Alpinestars Tech-Air® 5 or Tech-Air® 3 Airbag System.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too warm or too cold.

Adjust the jacket's configuration by removing or adding the thermal liner and/or the Drystar® liner according to the current weather conditions. Utilize the ventilation panels for airflow.

Water is leaking through the jacket.

Ensure the Drystar® liner is correctly installed and zipped securely. Check the outer shell and seams for any damage. Reapply a DWR treatment if the outer fabric is no longer beading water.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers.

Fit feels restrictive.

Adjust the cuffs, hem shock cord, and ensure stretch inserts are positioned correctly. If the restriction persists across all liner configurations, consider if the size is appropriate.
