FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Alpinestars Mogress Air Jacket is designed for airflow and is not specified as waterproof. While its polyester material offers some water resistance, it's generally not intended for heavy rain. For wet weather, we recommend wearing a dedicated waterproof over-jacket.

What protection level do the included protectors have?

The jacket comes with Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder and elbow protectors, both certified to CE Level 1. This provides a good balance of protection and flexibility for general riding.

Can I upgrade the back protector?

Many Alpinestars jackets are designed to accommodate an optional back protector. While this jacket includes shoulder and elbow protection, a back protector is typically sold separately. Check the jacket's internal pocket for back protector compatibility and recommended Alpinestars models. > Info needed: Back protector pocket type/size.

How should I clean the jacket?

First, remove all CE-certified protectors. Follow the care label instructions, generally hand washing in cold water with mild soap or machine washing on a gentle cycle. Air dry thoroughly, avoiding direct heat or sunlight, and do not tumble dry.

What kind of weather is this jacket best suited for?

Given its 'Air' designation, this jacket is best suited for riding in mild to warm weather conditions where good ventilation is beneficial. For colder temperatures, additional thermal layers underneath would be necessary.

Is the beige color practical for motorcycling?

The beige color offers a stylish alternative and can be cooler in direct sunlight than darker colors. However, it may show dirt, dust, and road grime more readily, requiring more frequent cleaning to maintain its appearance.

Troubleshooting

Protectors feel uncomfortable or shift during riding.

Ensure the jacket is sized correctly. The protectors should sit directly over your joints. Adjust any internal or external straps (e.g., bicep adjusters, cuff closures) to secure the fit. If discomfort persists, check if protectors are inserted correctly or consider if a different size is needed.

Jacket feels too hot despite 'Air' design.

Ensure all ventilation zippers or panels are fully open. Consider your base layer – moisture-wicking fabrics can help manage sweat. If riding in extreme heat, even 'Air' jackets have limits; short breaks in shade can help.

Jacket material appears creased or misshapen after washing.

Ensure you followed the care instructions, especially avoiding tumble drying. Gently reshape the jacket while damp and air dry it flat or on a broad hanger to maintain its form. Creases in textile are often minor and may relax with wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Fitment: Ensure the jacket fits snugly but comfortably. The shoulder and elbow protectors should sit correctly over your joints without significant movement.
  2. Adjustments: Utilize any available adjusters (e.g., cuffs, waist, arms) to customize the fit, preventing flapping at speed and keeping protectors in place.

Compatibility:

  • This jacket is designed to be worn over standard riding apparel. For maximum safety, pair it with CE-certified riding pants, gloves, and boots.
  • It may feature connection zippers to attach to Alpinestars riding pants, creating a full protective suit. > Info needed: Specific connection zipper details.
  • Consider wearing a base layer to manage moisture in warm weather or a thermal layer underneath for cooler conditions.

Care:

  1. Before Washing: Remove all removable protectors (shoulder and elbow). Check the care label inside the jacket for specific washing instructions.
  2. Cleaning: Generally, polyester textile jackets can be hand washed in cold water with a mild, non-detergent soap, or machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners as they can degrade the material and protective coatings.
  3. Drying: Air dry the jacket flat or hang it in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the fabric and coatings.
  4. Re-insert Protectors: Once completely dry, re-insert the Nucleon Flex Plus protectors into their designated pockets.
  5. Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
