FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for cold weather riding?
The Dusk Airflow jacket is designed for maximum airflow and is best suited for warm to mild conditions. For cold weather, layering with insulated garments underneath is recommended.
What type of protection does it offer?
It offers Class AA protective clothing certification (EN17092-3:2020) and includes CE Level 1 Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder protectors and Nucleon PLASMA elbow protectors.
Can I add a back protector?
Yes, the jacket is designed to accommodate Alpinestars' Nucleon back protectors (sold separately) for enhanced spinal protection.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the Alpinestars official sizing guide for leather jackets. Measure your chest and waist accurately and compare with the chart. It's recommended to try the jacket on if possible, as fit is crucial for both comfort and protection.
What is the primary material of the jacket?
The jacket is constructed from durable, abrasion-resistant leather.
How should I clean and maintain the leather?
Clean with a dedicated leather cleaner and apply a leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness. Avoid soaking the jacket and allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to operate
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth to improve glide.
Armor inserts feel stiff or uncomfortable
Leather jackets often require a break-in period. Wear the jacket for extended periods to allow the leather and armor to conform to your body's shape. Ensure armor is correctly seated within its pockets.
Excessive wind noise at higher speeds
Ensure the main zipper is fully closed and any collar snaps or adjustments are secured. A well-fitting jacket minimizes wind entry points.
