Founded in 1963, Alpinestars developed the first motocross boot in 1965. Development continued at pace, with the company producing boots for all forms of motorcycling, road and off-road, competitive use and leisure; they then graduated to all clothing, too and continue to this day, to be at the forefront of motocross clothing technology and development. The Alpinestars Techstar Rantera MX jersey features a racing-inspired cut for durable advanced-level competition. With an athletic race fit, the lightweight Techstar Jersey features an updated multi-materials construction with a poly-fabric stretch main chassis that incorporates ergonomic stretch inserts for enhanced freedom of movement. The jersey’s strategically positioned mesh inserts provide enhanced airflow and ventilation, as well as no seams on the side, under the arms, or on the collar for optimised rider comfort with an ergonomically optimised design. The extended rear and seamless bonded cuffs maximise comfort along with the moisture-wicking function. Fade-resistant graphics stay bright wash after wash. The matching Alpinestars Techstar MX pants offer a racing-inspired cut for advanced-level competition. Made from an advanced blend of stretch rip-stop fabric and 600D poly-fabric for enhanced stretchability and durability, with durable 4-way stretch on the yoke, thighs, and upper knees, the Techstar MX pants are ultra-durable and comfortable. They offer superior airflow thanks to the highly breathable Stretchnet zones with laser perforations for maximum comfort. The performance-engineered single-layer construction and linerless design offer enhanced wearability, superior comfort, and lighter weight, providing an effortless on and off, even when worn with knee braces or knee guards. Goatskin leather inner knees offer a premium feel and durability with additional reinforcement at the seat and knees. A revised Babel knee gusset gives flexibility and ventilation; fade-resistant graphics keep vibrance after washing. The elasticated waist offers a silicon inner waist to keep these in position with a secure SX2 auto-lock magnetic buckle for secure closure.
