Alpinestars GP Plus R v4 Airflow Leather Motorcycle Jacket - Black/Black US 50 / EU 60 with Race-Optimized Ventilation and Impact Protection

The Alpinestars GP Plus R v4 Airflow Leather Jacket is engineered for superior riding performance, combining extensive ventilation with high-level protection. This sport-fit jacket features pre-curved arms designed for maximum comfort and control during aggressive riding. Its race-proven shoulder and elbow armor provide reliable impact resistance, making it suitable for both track days and street riding. The jacket's vented shoulders and perforated zones across the chest and sides ensure exceptional airflow, helping riders stay cool in warmer conditions. Crafted from premium materials, it includes lightweight A-CS® Plus panels that offer about 9% less weight than traditional leather while delivering superior stretch and tear resistance—up to 300% higher tear strength and 600% increased cut resistance compared to standard leather. Technical stretch panels located under the arms, on the inner arms, and around the neck enhance flexibility, fit, and freedom of movement, ensuring the jacket moves with the rider’s body. An ergonomic collar with a hook-and-loop closure and a large built-in flap provide a secure, comfortable fit, while adjustable cuffs with hook-and-loop fasteners and a zippered sleeve facilitate easy wear and removal. Practical storage is available through two zippered external side pockets, and the mesh interior liner offers comfort plus pockets for optional back or split chest protection. The jacket extends slightly longer in the back to improve coverage when in riding position, and a hook-and-loop waist adjustment helps customize fit. Dual density DFS shoulder panels improve grip and reduce friction, complemented by GP Lite elbow armor for impact absorption and Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder armor for enhanced impact protection. The ALPINESTARS GP Plus R v4 Airflow Leather Jacket is also compatible with Tech-Air® 5 and Tech-Air® 3 electronic airbag systems, offering additional safety for high-performance riding. Designed with rider comfort, protection, and airflow in mind, this jacket is ideal for riders seeking a lightweight, ventilated, and protective gear that performs under demanding conditions.
