Alpinestars – Bionic Tech v3 Jacket – Black/White/Red

Both the dual-zone chest and back protectors have a rigid central zone with a flexible soft compound around the perimeter and are backed by a soft bio-foam padding | On the chest protector, the flexible and soft side wings in combination with the bio-foam padding works as an adaptive system that molds to the chest | The central zone of the chest and back protectors directly behind the highly perforated impact grid are completely open to allow for maximum ventilation | The chest and back protectors are securely held in place via adjustable shoulder straps | With an easy-on-off design, the removable chest protector features a magnetic, quick release lock buckle on the left shoulder while the lower securement is actioned with the adjustable V-belts which run through the ventilated rib guards | The V shape spreads the tightening force over a wider area of the back protector, resulting in a more secure and comfortable fit | The rib guards offer additional coverage in critical areas | 17% of the protector structure consists of ventilation apertures aligned through both hybrid layers to ensure maximum ventilation | Ventilated with channeling of direct heat build-up away from the chest | Anatomically profiled back protector is highly ventilated and flexible | BNS compatible via removable puck panel and elasticated BNS pull tabs | Chest and back protectors can be detached from the base layer for easy washing of the jacket | Chest can be opened on the left shoulder by a convenient quick-release magnetic buckle providing easy access to the central zipper | V-straps on the lower forearm to ensure a customizable fit while keeping the elbow protector securely positioned | V-straps on the back protector make for a more adaptive fit | Strategically placed EVA foam padding on the upper arms and chest provide improved roost defense | Race-proven breathable and stretchable textiles used for the base layer construction | Floating chest and back protectors, and rib guards | Waist strap not attached to back protector
