Alpinestars A-5 Plasma Chest Protector: A chest protector engineered to move with your body instead of fighting it.
Features
- Independent side wings: a fully adaptive fit as you move
- Nucleon Plasma back protector: greater force dispersion in a critical area
- Perforated 3D mesh: real airflow, not just a marketing claim
- Chest and back protectors are mounted on a highly perforated 3D mesh for airflow and breathability
- The side wings are independent from the main semi-rigid chest protector outer shell to ensure a fully adaptive fit
- The back protector is a composite construction and has a central semi-rigid thermoplastic zone on a Nucleon Plasma back protector for greater impact force dispersion in a critical area
- Protectors have an adaptive fit that follow the body's contours for comfort and freedom of movement
- Nucleon Plasma is a viscoelastic material engineered from bio-based polymers and formed into a structure that is pliable in all directions while maintaining the ability to dissipate impact energies
