Alpinestars Chrome Air Sport Hoodie CE A Aramid with Protectors

Alpinestars Chrome Air Sport – The hoodie for real city riders

You ride into town every day, take quick trips through the countryside or just out to the car park before work. Your motorbike is as much a part of you as your jacket – except that a classic leather suit can sometimes seem like overkill. This is where the Chrome Air Sport Hoodie from Alpinestars comes in: a motorcycle hoodie that combines safety and everyday style without looking like a motorsport costume. This is serious stuff – the garment is certified to EN 17092:2020 Class A. This means it meets genuine motorcycle protection standards. With Nucleon Flex Plus protectors on the shoulders and elbows, you're not riding blind in the event of a fall. Aramid reinforcements in critical areas give you abrasion resistance without turning you into a racing driver.

What makes the Chrome Air Sport Hoodie practical:

• Tech fleece construction – lightweight, breathable, ventilated while riding
• Nucleon Flex Plus Level 1 protectors – shoulders and elbows with genuine impact protection
• Aramid reinforcements in critical wear zones – maximum abrasion resistance
• Press stud hood with collar lock – stays in place while riding
• 2 regular pockets plus 1 waterproof pocket – handy for your valuables

What sets the Chrome Air Sport Hoodie apart in practice

The ventilation is not just a marketing gimmick. The Airflow mesh is strategically placed on the sides and under the sleeves – you'll definitely notice this on longer rides in summer. The fabric breathes without leaving you freezing when you get off your motorbike. That's the balance Alpinestars has achieved here. The hood deserves special praise. With the press stud collar, you can secure it around your neck while riding – no flapping chaos in the wind. It's not sexy, but it's practical. A real plus, especially on bad weather tours. The waterproof pocket is smart: your mobile phone or wallet are protected, while the rest of the hoodie remains airy. What motorcyclists particularly appreciate is that the hoodie looks completely normal. You can stop anywhere for a coffee break and no one will bat an eyelid. From a motorcycling perspective, it protects you just as well as a classic textile jacket – only in hoodie format.
