Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for all-season riding?
The jacket includes a removable thermal liner, making it adaptable for cooler weather. However, it is primarily a leather sport jacket and may require additional layers for very cold conditions or be too warm for extreme heat without the liner.
What type of protection does it offer?
It comes with CE certified armor in the shoulders and elbows. It is also designed to accommodate additional chest and back protectors (sold separately).
Can I attach any brand of riding pants to this jacket?
The jacket features a waist connection zipper specifically designed to attach to Alpinestars riding pants that also have a corresponding zipper. It is not universally compatible with all brands.
How should I clean the leather?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner for motorcycle apparel. Do not machine wash or submerge in water.
What is the benefit of the pre-curved sleeves?
Pre-curved sleeves are designed to match the natural bent-arm position of a rider on a motorcycle. This reduces muscle fatigue and increases comfort, especially during extended rides or aggressive riding stances.
Is there an internal waterproof pocket?
Yes, the jacket features an inner waterproof pocket designed to protect items like smartphones or wallets from moisture.
What is the sizing based on?
The sizing is based on Men's UK waist measurements (e.g., UK 38). It's recommended to consult the Alpinestars sizing chart for the most accurate fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too tight or restrictive
Adjust the Velcro and D-ring waist straps and the Velcro wrist closures for a more personalized fit. Ensure the thermal liner is removed if it contributes to tightness.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and try again.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a quality leather conditioner specifically designed for motorcycle apparel. Follow the product's instructions for application.
Thermal liner is difficult to install/remove
Ensure the liner is correctly aligned with the jacket's attachment points. Take your time and avoid forcing it.
