ALPINESTARS ANDES DRYSTAR, TECH-AIR 5 compatibleS, dark blue/black/red, 2024, sizing. L

The ALPINESTARS ANDES DRYSTAR men's textile motorcycle jacket is designed for year-round travel, especially for enduro-style riding. Thanks to its fixed Drystar® climate membrane, it offers 100% waterproofing and breathability, keeping you dry in all weathers. For riding on colder days, it is equipped with a removable thermal liner. Safety is provided by certified elbow and shoulder protectors, and the jacket is compatible with TECH-AIR®5 airbag vests. A sophisticated ventilation system and adjustable waist, shoulder and sleeve widths allow you to adapt the jacket to different conditions and body shapes.

Ready for any weather

The multi-panel polyester outer shell forms the durable foundation of the jacket. The key feature is the fixed Drystar® climate membrane, which ensures 100% waterproofing while wicking away body moisture, so you stay dry inside and out. For riding in cold weather, you'll appreciate the removable long-sleeved thermal liner, which has 100g/m³ insulation in the chest area and 80g/m³ on the sleeves. In warmer weather, the DVS Direct Ventilation System with vents on the chest and shoulder blades provides effective airflow.

Comprehensive rider protection

The ANDES DRYSTAR jacket puts safety first. It is equipped with removable and CE-certified NUCLEON FLEX PLUS elbow and shoulder protectors. For increased abrasion resistance, the elbows are reinforced with a PU print. The jacket is also prepared for the insertion of NUCLEON series back protectors. A major advantage is its full compatibility with TECH-AIR®5 airbag vests, which significantly increases the level of protection. Reflective elements on the shoulders, back, sides and front improve visibility in low-light conditions. The entire jacket meets CE A-rated certification.

Comfort and a custom fit

For maximum comfort during long journeys, the jacket has a pre-curved sleeve cut and stretch textile panels above the elbows for ease of movement. A wide range of adjustments lets you tailor the jacket to your figure. The width of the shoulders, forearms and waist can be adjusted with Velcro straps, D-rings and press studs. The sleeve ends are adjusted with a Velcro cuff and the bottom hem of the jacket can be tightened with an elastic cord and toggle. The extended back protects your lower back from the cold and the raised collar with Velcro fastening prevents wind from getting in.
