Alpinestars Atem v5 Leather Jacket - Black US 48 / EU 58 - Premium Racing Motorcycle Gear

The Alpinestars Atem v5 Leather Jacket is a high-performance racing jacket designed specifically for sport bike riders seeking maximum protection, comfort, and aerodynamic efficiency. Crafted with race-derived features, this jacket offers a dedicated ‘Race’ fit with pre-curved arms that enhance riding posture and control. The incorporation of Flex Plus ‘Race’ leather provides a lighter, more adaptable material that improves freedom of movement while maintaining superior durability. This innovative construction allows riders to experience enhanced agility and responsiveness on the track or open road.
The Atem v5 features extensive technical stretch panels strategically placed under the arms, on the inner arms, and around the neck, ensuring an optimal fit that accommodates dynamic riding positions. The use of A-CS® Plus panels, which are approximately 9% lighter than traditional leather, contributes to the jacket's lightweight profile and superior stretch performance, offering around 30% elongation and a significant increase in tear and cut resistance compared to conventional materials. The RIDEKNIT® engineered inner arms blend abrasion resistance with flexibility, providing comfort without compromising safety. Protective armor elements include dual-density DFS RR shoulder and elbow protectors for friction management, GP elbow armor for impact absorption, and Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder armor for enhanced impact protection.
Additional features like a streamlined speed hump improve aerodynamics and ventilation, while the chamber within the hump provides space for a hydration pouch, supporting hydration during intense rides. The jacket's waterproof inner compartment offers secure storage for valuables, complemented by two external zippered side pockets. The mesh interior liner ensures comfort and breathability, with pockets designed to accommodate back or split chest protectors. The low-profile sports collar and ergonomic cuffs with zippers facilitate ease of wear and adjustment, while the 3/4 waist zipper allows seamless integration with Alpinestars pants for a unified riding suit. Longer back coverage enhances protection in riding posture, making this jacket a comprehensive choice for serious sport riders who demand performance and safety in a sleek, race-ready package.
