What is Airflow riding gear designed for?
This collection brings together motorcycle gear built for high-ventilation riding in warm weather. Airflow-focused pieces typically use large mesh panels, laser perforations, or breathable textile constructions to improve cooling while maintaining a motorcycle-specific fit and protective structure.
It is best suited to street, sport, and urban riding in hot or humid conditions. For cooler temperatures, sustained rain, or long weather exposure, riders usually add layers or choose a more weather-focused category.
Are products in this Airflow collection CE certified?
Many airflow garments are protective riding products rather than casual apparel, and certification often varies by item. Depending on the product type, look for CE-certified garment ratings such as EN 17092, plus impact protection standards like EN 1621-1 for limb armor, EN 1621-2 for back protectors, and EN 1621-3 for chest protectors.
Because certification class, armor level, and included protectors can differ across the collection, always check the individual product page for the exact standard and protection level before choosing your setup.
How should Airflow motorcycle gear fit?
Airflow gear should fit close enough to keep the protective zones correctly positioned without restricting movement. Mesh and perforated garments should feel secure in the shoulders, elbows, waist, and sleeves, but they should not be so tight that they reduce comfort or natural airflow.
When trying on a jacket or pant, check the fit in your riding position rather than standing upright only. If you plan to wear a base layer, back protector, or airbag system, allow the additional space needed for that setup.
Is Airflow gear compatible with Tech-Air systems and protector upgrades?
Some airflow jackets are marked Tech-Air® Ready or Tech-Air® Compatible, while others are not. Many garments also include internal compartments for optional back and chest protector inserts, but compatibility depends on the exact garment design and the required protector format.
Before ordering, confirm the product page and use the Tech-Air® compatibility checker. If a jacket is not listed, follow Alpinestars guidance for the fit clearance required by standalone Tech-Air® systems.
How do I wash and care for Airflow motorcycle gear?
Always start with the care label. For textile or mesh gear, remove armor, liners, and any electronic components before cleaning, close zips and hook-and-loop fasteners, and hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cold cycle only if the label permits.
Avoid bleach, fabric softener, tumble drying, and direct heat. Let the garment air-dry fully before reinstalling protectors, and inspect mesh panels, seams, and armor pockets regularly for wear, stretching, or damage.
