FAQs

What is the jacket made of?

The Alpinestars GP Force Leather Jacket is made from bovine leather.

Does the jacket come with armour?

Yes, it includes CE-certified elbow and shoulder armour.

Is a back protector included?

No, a back protector is not included but there is a pocket for the back protector.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is not waterproof, but it offers some water resistance. Use a suitable waterproof over-layer for wet conditions.

Can I use the jacket without the thermal liner?

Yes, the removable thermal liner allows the jacket to be used in warmer weather.

What is Tech-Air 5 compatibility?

The jacket is designed to accommodate and work with the Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 airbag system, enhancing rider safety.

How do I clean and maintain the leather?

Use a leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid harsh chemicals and direct sunlight. Regularly check the jacket for wear and tear.

What sizes are available?

Please refer to the size charts provided by Alpinestars or the retailer you are purchasing from.

Troubleshooting

Armour feels misaligned or uncomfortable.

Adjust the armour within the pockets to ensure proper fit and coverage. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or consulting a professional.

The jacket feels too tight or restrictive.

Check that you have selected the correct size. The jacket may need some break-in time, and leather can stretch slightly with use. If it continues to be restrictive, consider sizing up.

The thermal liner is not providing enough warmth.

Add layers of clothing underneath the thermal liner or consider a thicker thermal base layer.

Zippers stick or are difficult to operate.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant, or apply a wax-based lubricant if they are still difficult to operate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the jacket fits properly before riding. The armour should be correctly positioned, and the jacket should allow for a full range of motion without restricting movement. If using Tech-Air 5, follow Alpinestars' instructions for system activation and use.
