FAQs

How do I clean my Alpinestars Racing Absolute v2 suit?

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to clean the suit. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. Always let the suit air dry naturally and away from direct heat or sunlight.

Can I wear this suit on the street?

The suit is designed for track use. While it can be worn on the street, it may be less comfortable and practical for everyday riding. It is best suited to track day or racing conditions where the full protection is needed.

What kind of protection does the suit offer?

The suit offers comprehensive protection, including CE Level 2 armor at the shoulders, elbows, forearms, and knees, CE Level 1 hip protectors, and abrasion-resistant kangaroo leather panels.

How should I store my racing suit?

Store the suit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a wide hanger to maintain its shape, and avoid folding it for extended periods.

Can I get the suit tailored?

Alpinestars offers various sizes. It's recommended to consult a professional tailor for any alterations to ensure the suit maintains its protective integrity.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every 2-3 months, or more frequently if the suit is used regularly or exposed to harsh conditions. Follow the leather conditioner's instructions.

What should I do if my suit gets wet?

Allow the suit to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area. Avoid using heat sources such as a hairdryer or direct sunlight, as these can damage the leather. Once dry, condition the leather.

Troubleshooting

Armor feels uncomfortable or misaligned.

Adjust the armor pockets to ensure proper positioning and comfort. Consult the suit's manual for specific adjustment instructions.

Suit feels too tight or restrictive.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Consider using base layers to aid movement, or seek professional fitting advice.
