The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Canvas Vest offers advanced protection with a fully autonomous active airbag system designed for motorcycle riders. Featuring six integrated sensors—including three accelerometers and three gyroscopes—this system monitors crash risks in various dynamic riding situations, activating automatically even when stationary. The magnetic zip closure ensures quick and reliable deployment, while the vest's packable design allows for easy storage in a backpack, saddlebag, or top case when not in use.
Constructed from stretch nylon canvas, the vest provides a comfortable fit with a ribbed bomber collar and elastic side panels that accommodate expansion and movement. Its center zipper, paired with internal magnet snap buttons, secures the chest bladder in position during rides and allows for discreet folding when the system is deactivated. Multiple pockets—including two hand pockets, two chest pockets with a sunglasses channel, and an inner concealed pocket—offer practical storage options. A waist loop is included for attaching gloves or accessories, enhancing convenience.
An intuitive LED display on the front chest indicates the system's operational status and features a haptic alert that vibrates to confirm arming or warn of low battery. The display's reflective backing improves visibility in low-light conditions. Powered by Alpinestars' Pro 2nd Generation electronic control unit (ECU), the vest supports Bluetooth low energy connectivity through the Tech-Air® App, enabling riders to monitor system status, update software, and review ride data via MyRide. The integrated lithium-ion battery provides approximately 40 hours of operation and recharges in about four hours, ensuring reliable protection for extended rides.
The system's gas inflator, housed on the left side of the lower back, deploys the airbag during a crash. All electronic components—including the inflator housing, wiring, and airbags—are removable for maintenance or replacement, which can be performed at authorized Alpinestars service centers. The vest's ECU seal ensures all-weather functionality, certified to operate between -20°C and +40°C, maintaining performance across diverse riding environments. The washable canvas exterior allows for easy cleaning once electronics are removed, maintaining the vest's appearance and hygiene. Overall, the Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Canvas Vest delivers advanced safety features with a comfortable fit, intelligent monitoring, and customizable software updates, making it a dependable choice for riders seeking comprehensive protection.
