2024 Road Riding Gear

The 2024 Road Riding Gear collection features a comprehensive range of motorcycle jackets designed for street and sport riding. This includes leather jackets crafted from premium materials like kangaroo leather for maximum abrasion resistance, textile jackets with advanced weatherproofing and ventilation systems, and versatile options compatible with Tech-Air® airbag technology. Each jacket incorporates CE-certified armor and is engineered with Italian design excellence to deliver race-derived protection for everyday road riding.

Many jackets in the 2024 Road Riding Gear collection are designed with Tech-Air® compatibility, featuring integrated harness systems that work seamlessly with Alpinestars' electronic airbag technology. Tech-Air® compatible jackets are specifically constructed to accommodate the airbag vest underneath while maintaining optimal fit and comfort. Check individual product specifications to confirm Tech-Air® compatibility, as some models may be designed as standalone protective garments. For riders seeking maximum protection, pairing a Tech-Air® compatible jacket with the airbag system provides world-leading crash protection backed by AI-powered deployment technology.

Proper care extends the life and performance of your road riding gear. For textile jackets and pants, remove all CE armor and close all zippers and fasteners before washing in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent and avoid bleach, fabric softeners, or harsh chemicals that can degrade technical fabrics and waterproof membranes. Air dry completely away from direct heat sources—never tumble dry, as high heat can damage protective materials and bonded seams.

Leather garments require specialized care. Wipe down with a damp cloth after rides to remove road grime, and periodically condition with leather-specific products to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. For heavily soiled items or specialized materials like Nomex or Kevlar reinforcements, professional cleaning is recommended to preserve protective properties and certifications.

The 2024 Road Riding Gear collection meets rigorous European safety standards, with garments certified to EN 17092 for motorcycle protective clothing. Products include CE-certified impact protectors at shoulders, elbows, and back, with many offering upgrade options to higher-level armor. Selected race-oriented suits and jackets carry FIM homologation, meeting the strict requirements for professional circuit racing.

All protective armor is CE-certified to EN 1621 standards, with Level 1 protection as standard and Level 2 available on premium models for enhanced impact absorption. Airbag-compatible garments are designed to work with Tech-Air® systems that provide chest and back protection exceeding traditional armor capabilities. This multi-layered approach to safety reflects Alpinestars' 60-year commitment to rider protection validated through championship-level motorsports.

Leather and textile jackets each offer distinct advantages for road riding:

Leather jackets deliver race-proven abrasion resistance and timeless style preferred by sport riders and track enthusiasts. Textile options provide superior versatility for varying weather conditions, touring comfort, and practical everyday use. Both categories in this collection feature Italian craftsmanship, CE-certified protection, and race-derived technology to meet the demands of serious road riders.
