The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 Utility Vest offers advanced safety features combined with versatile design, making it an essential gear for serious motorcyclists. Constructed from durable stretch nylon canvas, the vest includes a ribbed bomber collar and elasticated side panels for a comfortable fit and increased mobility. The center zipper features two internal magnet snap buttons—one to secure the chest bladder during riding and another to conceal it when not in use—providing convenience and streamlined performance. Equipped with two zippered hand pockets, two chest pockets including a sunglasses channel on the right, and an inner concealed pocket, this vest offers ample storage options for riders on the go. The waist loop allows attachment of gloves or other gear, enhancing practicality. A discreet, yet highly visible LED display on the front chest indicates the airbag system's operational status, incorporating a haptic vibration alert to confirm activation or warn of low battery levels. The LED display’s reflective backing enhances visibility in low light conditions, contributing to rider safety. The vest houses Alpinestars’ Pro 2nd Generation electronic control unit (ECU), located in an upper back pocket, which manages the airbag deployment system seamlessly. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 5.0) connectivity with the Tech-Air® App enables riders to monitor system health, battery life, and software updates, ensuring optimal performance at all times. The vest’s software is upgradable via the app, allowing users to stay current with the latest features. Powering the system is a certified lithium-ion battery with an estimated 40-hour life and approximately four hours recharge time, ensuring long-lasting use between charges. The gas inflator, positioned on the lower back, provides rapid inflation during a crash and is easily replaceable by authorized service centers. The entire electronics assembly, including the inflator housing, wiring, and airbag, is removable for maintenance or washing, with the canvas vest being washable once electronics are detached. Certified to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +40°C, the Tech-Air® 3 vest ensures all-weather durability. Its sealed ECU design enhances weather resistance, providing peace of mind in various riding conditions. With this vest, Alpinestars delivers a cutting-edge safety solution that combines innovative airbag technology with comfort, style, and user-friendly features for a confident riding experience.
