FAQs
This collection includes one-piece and two-piece motorcycle suits designed for different riding disciplines. One-piece suits are primarily engineered for track and sport riding, offering maximum aerodynamics and protection through seamless construction. Two-piece suits provide versatility for street and touring riders, with jackets and pants that can be worn separately or zipped together for full-body coverage.
Materials range from premium kangaroo and cowhide leather for track use to advanced textile constructions with Cordura and Kevlar reinforcements for touring applications. All suits feature CE-certified armor and are designed around Alpinestars' racing heritage and protection philosophy.
Many suits in this collection are designed with Tech-Air® compatibility, featuring integrated housing for Alpinestars' electronic airbag systems. Compatible suits include specific mounting points and internal pockets that accommodate the Tech-Air® 5 and Tech-Air® Race systems without compromising fit or mobility.
Tech-Air® compatible suits are clearly marked in their product specifications. The airbag system deploys in milliseconds using AI-powered crash detection algorithms, providing additional protection to the chest, back, shoulders, and collarbone. For riders seeking maximum protection, pairing a compatible suit with a Tech-Air® system delivers race-proven safety technology.
Motorcycle suits should fit snugly without restricting movement, particularly in the riding position. Leather suits require a tighter initial fit as the material will conform to your body over time, typically breaking in after several rides. Textile suits generally offer more immediate comfort with adjustable features for personalized fit.
Key fit points include shoulders that align naturally, sleeves that don't ride up when reaching for handlebars, and armor that stays positioned over impact zones (shoulders, elbows, back, hips, knees). Most suits feature adjustment straps at the waist, arms, and legs to fine-tune the fit. When trying on suits, adopt your riding position to ensure adequate mobility and proper armor placement.
Alpinestars motorcycle suits meet or exceed international safety standards, with many models carrying CE certification under the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425. Track-focused suits often feature FIM homologation, meeting the strict requirements set by the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme for professional racing.
All suits include CE-certified armor at critical impact zones, with protection levels clearly specified (typically CE Level 1 or Level 2). Premium models offer upgrade options to Nucleon Flex Pro armor for enhanced impact absorption. Leather suits use abrasion-resistant hides tested to meet or exceed CE standards, while textile suits incorporate Cordura, Kevlar, and other technical fabrics with proven slide resistance.
Leather and textile suits offer distinct advantages depending on riding style and conditions:
| Feature | Leather Suits | Textile Suits |
|---|---|---|
| Abrasion Resistance | Superior slide protection, ideal for track | Excellent with Kevlar/Cordura reinforcements |
| Weather Protection | Limited, requires separate rain gear | Waterproof membranes and breathable layers |
| Versatility | Best for sport/track riding | Adaptable for touring and varied conditions |
| Break-in Period | Requires conforming to body shape | Comfortable immediately |
Track riders and sport enthusiasts typically choose leather for maximum abrasion resistance, while touring and adventure riders often prefer textile suits for all-weather capability and comfort across long distances.
