The Alpinestars AST v3 Air Jacket is a lightweight motorcycle riding jacket designed to deliver high levels of airflow, mobility, and protection in warm-weather conditions. Finished in Black, Silver, and Yellow Fluo, this Large-size jacket uses a multi-panel 450D polyfabric construction for dependable abrasion resistance, comfort, and everyday riding durability. The sport fit features an elongated rear for added coverage and wind protection while riding in a forward-leaning position.
The AST v3 Air Jacket combines extensive laser perforations across the chest, back, and sleeves with 2D mesh stretch inserts on the front, sleeves, and rear for effective climate control and ventilation. Stretch panels along the torso and upper back promote freedom of movement, while pre-curved elbows help reduce rider fatigue. Cuff and waist adjusters allow for a more personalized fit, and the aerodynamically shaped cuffs are designed to reduce drag and pressure while working comfortably with Alpinestars gloves.
Strategically positioned accordion stretch panels accommodate compatible Alpinestars airbag systems, allowing the jacket to expand during airbag deployment while maintaining an anatomical fit during normal riding. The integrated low-profile collar helps reduce neck pressure, helmet chafing, and flapping at speed. Interior and exterior pockets provide practical storage for riding essentials. The jacket is Tech-Air 7x, Tech-Air 5 PLASMA, and Tech-Air 3 ready, making it a versatile choice for street, sport, and warm-weather touring applications. The manufacturer and vendor part number is 3300426-159-L.
