Alpinestars GP Tech v5 Race Suit

Alpinestars GP Tech V5 1-Piece Leather Suit

The Alpinestars GP Tech v5 1-Piece Leather Suit is meticulously tailored for high-speed performance and stability, essential for racers executing aggressive maneuvers on track days. Constructed from a fusion of kangaroo and bovine leathers, it delivers exceptional abrasion resistance and a conforming fit. Impact and heat from friction during slides are mitigated by dual layers of leather and a bonded Kevlar network. Functional and form-fitting, the suit uses Kevlar stretch panels and a pre-formed 3D waist accordion to enhance riders' mobility without sacrificing aerodynamics. The engineered speed hump aligns with the S-R10 helmet, channeling airflow effectively, while silicone patches inside the legs enhance machine grip. It features anatomically designed GP Tech Knee Sliders and resilient triple-stitched seams for sustained track engagement. Riders' comfort is addressed with a padded mesh liner and integrated Lycra inserts that promote air circulation, complemented by pre-curved sleeves and angled wrist zippers that alleviate pressure points. The lower leg construction is compatible with Supertech R boots, showcasing an integration of lightweight materials. Altogether, the Alpinestars GP Tech v5 enables racers to fully leverage their bikes' capabilities, upholding stringent safety benchmarks.
