Tech-Air® 5’s electronic system operates independently, providing full upper-body protection without external tethers or connections.
Compatible with any textile jacket (with 4 cm of room around the chest) and most leather jackets with expansion panels or additional space.
Constructed as a fully self-contained, wearable vest, it delivers industry-leading coverage and impact absorption—engineered to perform in real-world crashes.

Since 2001, Alpinestars has led the development of electronic airbag technology—from MotoGP to consumer-ready systems. Milestones include Tech-Air® Race (2011), Tech-Air® Street (2014), and Tech-Air® 5, launched in 2020. Recognized by CES for innovation, it represents two decades of relentless rider-first engineering.

Due to regulations for transport of dangerous goods by air (IATA) and road (ADR), consumers are not permitted to ship Tech-Air® products themselves for return or servicing. In the event of a return or service request you must therefore deliver the goods in person to one of our Tech-Air® Hubs. Please ensure you first contact our Customer Care team to receive confirmation of the correct Hub and approval before visiting.

Currently the Tech-Air® Hubs are only available in Italy, Germany and Netherlands but we are onboarding more centers across major European countries shortly.

Please use the map below to find your closest Tech-Air® Hub.

By purchasing a Tech-Air® product on the Alpinestars website, you acknowledge and accept this return policy. If you still decide to ship your Tech-Air® product as a return, Alpinestars Spa will not be held responsible for the transit of such goods and will not accept them as returns. For this reason, no refund will be issued.
