The Alpinestars T-GP Plus R v4 Airflow: a sport-fit textile jacket built for maximum airflow without giving up CE protection. Made for Richmond summers.
What the features mean on the road
- Extensive mesh on chest and back, plus perforations on chest, back yoke and forearms: why it matters: real airflow when it's humid and 90 degrees.
- 450D poly-fabric: durable and abrasion resistant.
- Sport fit with pre-curved arms.
- DFS Lite shoulders and Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder and elbow armor.
- Airbag-ready: built to accept Alpinestars' Tech-Air system (airbag sold separately). Alpinestars says Tech-Air 5 reduces impact force by up to 93% compared with a CE-certified passive protector.
Fit and sizing
Sport fit with extended stretch inserts. Try it on in the riding position.
A good fit if you want a ventilated sport jacket for summer.
