The ALPINESTARS Andes Air Drystar® Jacket is purpose-built for touring riders seeking lightweight airflow performance without compromising weather protection or riding safety.

Engineered with extensive 2D mesh ventilation panels across the chest, inner arms, and back, the jacket delivers outstanding airflow and breathability during warm-weather riding, helping riders remain cool and comfortable on long journeys.

When weather conditions suddenly change, the detachable 100% waterproof and breathable Drystar® membrane allows riders to quickly adapt. The membrane can conveniently be worn either over or under the jacket depending on riding conditions, delivering excellent versatility for dual-season touring.

The jacket’s road-oriented ergonomic design features pre-shaped arms, a reduced-length touring profile, and a contoured lower edge that improves riding comfort while reducing fatigue during extended hours on the motorcycle.

For enhanced durability, ripstop reinforcement panels at the shoulders, elbows, and forearms provide additional abrasion resistance in key impact and wear zones.

The Andes Air Drystar® Jacket is equipped with integrated Nucleon Flex Plus Level 1 shoulder and elbow armor, offering lightweight impact protection while maintaining rider flexibility and mobility. The jacket is also fully compatible with Tech-Air® 5 and Tech-Air® 3 airbag systems for advanced rider safety.

Designed for touring, commuting, and adventure riding, the Andes Air Drystar® Jacket combines airflow, weather adaptability, comfort, and protection in one versatile touring package.
