Sizing Note: Alpinestars warns that any Tech-Air 3 System smaller than size SM must not be worn under your jacket and should only be worn OVER your jacket.

Note: Read the entire user manual prior to operation. The Tech-Air 3 Vest can be worn under any properly fitting textile jacket, keeping in mind that the jacket must be large enough to accommodate the expansion of the airbag in the event of a crash. For textile jackets, riders need 4cm of additional space around the circumference of the body. Riders who wish to wear a leather jacket that is not Tech-Air compatible must be sure that the leather jacket has an additional 4cm of space around the circumference of the entire body. Riders can also pair the Tech-Air 3 Airbag Vest with any Alpinestars Tech-Air compatible jacket that features airbag expansion panels. Not intended for use with heated riding gear. Heated gear exceeds the Tech-Air 3's upper operating limit of 122° F. 

Say hello to safety with a new found style - The Alpinestars Tech-Air 3 Canvas Vest has upped the safety game to keeping you protected without losing your style. The black or tan canvas colorway can blend seamlessly on top or underneath your riding jacket. The Tech-Air series of autonomous airbag systems by Alpinestars are custom tailored for your type of riding. Whether your goal is going fast, commuting in the urban cityscape or exploring the road less traveled, Alpinestars has a Tech-Air autonomous airbag system for you. It even accepts patches and embroidery.

Top-Tier Protection Without Compromising Your Drip

If you're a city commuter or street rider looking for an added layer of protection, look no further than the Tech-Air 3. It's the lightest autonomous airbag system offered by Alpinestars and it can be worn under or over your jacket, so you can ride comfortably.

Cutting Edge Technology

The Tech-Air 3 integrates the advanced Street crash detection algorithm from the Tech-Air 5, utilizing six sensors to accurately deploy the airbag during various street riding scenarios, providing full upper body protection. Its rapid activation and coverage of the chest and back enhance safety, complemented by an integrated back protector pocket for additional security (back protector sold separately).

Intuitive System

An LED display on the front chest indicates the airbag's operational status and features a haptic alert which vibrates to confirm that the system is armed, and again when the battery is running low. Bluetooth connectivity to the Tech-Air App allows you to monitor the Tech-Air 3's operational status, battery status and access a detailed map of your ride.

Rider Friendly Tech

The Tech-Air App offers Bluetooth connectivity, enabling riders to monitor the airbag system's status, battery life, and access detailed ride analysis, including route plotting on a map. The Tech-Air 3 uses the street algorithm only and is not meant for race use.
