Alpinestars has been at the front of motorsports protection for over 60 years. The brand's motorcycle apparel combines race-derived technology with everyday wearability, and every piece in the Alpinestars collection at Knockiva reflects that heritage. If you want gear that is engineered for protection without feeling like bulky armor, this is a brand worth knowing.

The Alpinestars Story

Alpinestars built its reputation at the highest levels of racing, then brought that knowledge to gear for everyday riders. Decades of work with professional racers feed directly into the armor, materials, and fit of the apparel you can buy today. The result is Alpinestars motorcycle gear that carries genuine race pedigree while remaining practical for the street, the tour, and the track day.

Alpinestars Motorcycle Jackets

Jackets are a core part of the Alpinestars lineup, and this collection covers both leather and textile. The GP Force V2 Air is a perforated leather motorcycle jacket that is Tech-Air ready, with Nucleon Flex Plus protection, DFS armor, and a sport CE-certified fit. The Missile V2 steps up to CE AAA certification for riders who put protection first. On the textile side, the T-GP Plus Air and T-GP Plus R V4 Airflow deliver ventilated comfort with CE-certified armor. See how they compare in our Motorcycle Jackets collection.

Alpinestars Pants and Suits

Alpinestars protects your lower body as thoroughly as your upper. The Missile V2 Airflow leather pants offer perforated thigh panels and CE-certified knee armor, while the Missile V3 is Tech-Air 10 compatible with CE AA certification. For full coverage, the GP Tech V4 one-piece racing suit brings track-level protection to riders chasing lap times. Explore these in our Motorcycle Pants and Motorcycle Suits collections.

Tech-Air and Modern Protection

One reason riders choose Alpinestars is its airbag ecosystem. Many Alpinestars jackets and pants are built to work with the Tech-Air airbag system, adding a layer of protection that inflates in a crash. Pairing Tech-Air ready gear with the matching system gives you some of the most advanced protection available to a road or track rider today, and it is a big part of why the brand stays at the front of the field.

How to Choose Your Alpinestars Gear

Start with fit, since Alpinestars gear tends to run to a sport cut that sits close to the body to keep armor in place. Check the size guide for each piece and try it in a riding position. Then match the certification to your riding. A CE sport jacket suits everyday and spirited road riding, while CE AAA and airbag-ready gear is built for the highest speeds and the track. Building a matched set of Alpinestars jacket and pants keeps the fit and protection consistent from the shoulders down.
