Alpinestars GP Plus R v4 Rideknit® Leather Motorcycle Jacket - Black/Black US 50 / EU 60

The Alpinestars GP Plus R v4 Rideknit® Leather Jacket offers exceptional rider comfort and advanced protection features designed for high-performance motorcycling. Crafted with a 1.3 mm ‘Race’ grade leather, this jacket balances durability and comfort, providing an optimal abrasion-resistant shell for demanding riding conditions. The inclusion of extensive race-inspired features ensures that riders benefit from superior fit, mobility, and safety during intense riding sessions. Its dedicated ‘Sport’ fit with pre-curved arms enhances riding ergonomics, while the strategically placed stretch panels improve breathability and freedom of movement, making it suitable for both racing and everyday riding. The jacket’s construction incorporates lightweight A-CS® Plus stretch panels that are about nine percent lighter than traditional leather panels, offering improved comfort without sacrificing strength. These panels provide approximately 30% elongation, along with a 300% increase in tear resistance and a 600% boost in cut resistance compared to standard stretch fibers, ensuring durability in high-stress areas. RIDEKNIT® engineered inner arms combine high abrasion and tear resistance with mechanical stretch, delivering a flexible fit that maintains breathability and comfort during extended wear. The jacket also features dual density DFS shoulders for superior friction control and impact protection, along with GP Lite elbow armor and Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder armor, both designed to absorb impacts efficiently. Additionally, the jacket is Tech-Air® 5 and Tech-Air® 3 ready, providing compatibility with Alpinestars’ advanced airbag safety systems. This combination of technical innovation and premium materials makes the Alpinestars GP Plus R v4 Rideknit® Leather Jacket an excellent choice for serious riders seeking top-tier protection, comfort, and performance in a stylish package.
