Our Two Cents
The Alpinestars SMX Air jacket is designed with the summer sport or commuting rider in mind.
Large mesh panels cover the front, back, and under side of the arms on this mesh jacket allowing air to flow through freely. Combined with the thin Nucleon Flex Plus armor this jacket will be lightweight and flexible. There are pockets to upgrade to optional Nucleon chest and back protectors as well. There are also hardened external DFS Lite armor at the shoulder.
There are two zippered hand pockets at the belly and one internal hook and loop storage pocket and one zippered waterproof internal storage pocket. Additionally there is one hook and loop storage pocket on the removable windbreaker liner. At the waist are hook and loop adjusters so you can snug the belly down to fit if needed. Inside the rear of the jacket are two snap loops to attach the jacket to pants via the belt loops.
3 sporty color choices give you options to match your other gear or the bike. The Alpinestars SMX Air jacket is a great option for sport and commuter riders that want protection and airflow that doesn’t break the bank. :: Mike 03/16/2024
