Alpinestars T SP-5 Rideknit® Motorcycle Jacket - Airbag Compatibility

The Alpinestars T SP-5 Rideknit® Jacket is engineered for riders seeking a sophisticated balance of advanced protection, ergonomic comfort, and modern style. Featuring a specialized knitted textile construction, this jacket offers a body-mapped fit with pre-curved sleeves to enhance riding performance and reduce fatigue. The chassis is crafted from hard-wearing poly-fabric, providing excellent durability and abrasion resistance for demanding road conditions.

Safety is at the forefront of the design, as this jacket is Tech-Air® 5 ready. It is designed to accommodate the world’s first completely electronic, self-contained, full independent upper body motorcycle airbag system, featuring strategically positioned stretch panel inserts that allow for expansion upon inflation while maintaining a superior anatomical fit when riding without the system. Protection is further bolstered by Level 1 Nucleon Flex Plus armor on the shoulders and elbows, complemented by DFS Lite shoulders with dynamic friction shields for enhanced abrasion resistance.

For climate control, a large mesh panel on the back of the collar optimizes airflow to keep you cool during intense rides. The jacket’s elongated rear design ensures enhanced coverage while in a riding position. Practicality meets performance with a low-profile sports collar, a large tooth Vislon® main zipper for glove-friendly operation, and a secure hook-and-loop waist and cuff closure system.
