The Alpinestars Venture XT jacket is designed with the dual sport/adventure crowd in mind.
The jacket has a water-resistant outer shell to keep you dry if a quick downpour comes out of nowhere, but it also has substantial venting options. The main zipper has the option of opening it up about an inch with a full length mesh panel that will bring in plenty of air. There are two exhaust vents on the back to pull the air around the body. There are two-way zippered vents from the forearm to the armpit as well.
The collar on this jacket has a 3D-mesh feel to it so it is extremely soft and comfortable. The Nucleon Flex armor in the shoulder and elbows is extremely flexible so you should almost not even feel it on the bike. The back protector and chest protectors are optional (see related products below) or you can upgrade to the Tech-Air®5 Airbag System. There are also belt loops to attach the jacket to a belt in your pants so it holds the back down. The rear “dakar inspired” pocket is massive and goes from one side of the jacket to the other so you can fit everything you could possibly need, and probably plenty that you don’t need, in there.
The Venture XT is ready for your next dual sport ride. The comfort and breathability combined with the waterproof shell for the unexpected showers make it a perfect packable outer layer. :: Mike, 01/03/22
