Alpinestars Racing Absolute v2 Race Suit The Alpinestars Racing Absolute v2 Race Suit is a top level professional grade racing suit incorporating all the lightest-weight and most-advanced materials and technologies that the worlds fastest MotoGP and WorldSBK riders wear on the track. Aside from its full kangaroo leather construction, with dual kangaroo leather layers in all the highest abrasion prone areas like the elbows, forearms, seat, hips and back, the Racing Absolute v2 also features Kevlar reinforced stretch inserts in higly flexed areas. The bonded Kevlar Grid provides increased cut, tear, and abrasion resistance, as well as offers highly reduced heat transfer to the riders body generated from any friction during a slide on the asphalt. A-Cs Tech material provides increased breathability, comfort and freedom of movement with a lower weight and a lower profile than accordion leather. Gp-R PRO CE Level 2 shoulder, elbow, forearm and knee armor with CE Level 1 Bioflex racing version hip protectors provide an additional layer of protection.

Race suits are made to fit best in the riding position, making them uncomfortable to wear while standing upright. Second skin fit - In the riding position, the suit should fit snugly against your body without any excess fabric bunching and shouldn't restrict movement or breathing. Account for ALL the gear - Wear all of your track gear when you try-on the suit to check for compatibility and proper fit. This includes: airbag, armor, back protector, base layer, boots, gloves, socks and yes... even your helmet! Like peas in a pod - Race suit sleeves are tapered to fit within full length gauntlet gloves & legs are tapered to fit within full height race boots. Break-in period - Keep in mind that leather stretches about 3-5 after the first few wears.
