Product description

The new centerpiece of the Alpinestars Motion Technology range, the AMT-8 Stretch Drystar XF jacket combines 100% stretch construction with an ACTIVE cut specifically designed for motorcycling, offering optimized ergonomics and exceptional freedom of movement. Every detail is designed for rider comfort over long hours of riding.

Its Hyperflow ventilation system doesn't just open a few zips: it redefines airflow management with long zipped inlets on the torso and arms, transforming the openings into real air intakes, and an always-open rear exhaust to continuously evacuate hot air. The result: powerful, constant cross-air circulation, even in the most demanding conditions.

The jacket also features a versatile, removable Drystar®XF waterproof liner, which can be worn inside as a windbreaker, or over it for rain protection. Practical, it's self-packable in an integrated bag that fits into the large, double-entry rear cargo pocket.

CE Class AA certified, it features Nucleon Plasma Pro level 2 shoulder and elbow protection, and is compatible with the Tech-Air® 7x airbag system for those seeking the best possible protection. Multiple adjustments at the collar, cuffs, forearms and waist ensure a precise fit, whether you're wearing the liner or not.

Designed for long distances and changing climates, it also offers a multitude of smart storage options: front cargo pockets with quick access, a waterproof inner pocket for your valuables, and large back storage for your gear.

A jacket designed to go far. A long way.
