Product Details and Qualities

Materials and characteristics from Moto GP suits are used in the Alpinestars GP Pro v2 Racing Suit for Tech Air Race. Combining this full grain leather suit with the Tech Air Race Airbag System will provide professional racers with safety and efficiency that is up to par. You can move thanks to accordion stretch panels and fabric in crucial places, so you can bike hard without feeling restricted by your suit. When moving quickly, localized vents aid in the suit’s ventilation.

In the case of an accident, the shoulders, elbows, and lower back are protected with Kevlar lining. To keep the suit fresh, simply out the mesh lining and wash it. The factory includes standard CE-rated elbow, shoulder, and knee armor. Add a strap-on Alpinestars back protector with a matching multiple snap system to enhance the track-ready impact protection.
