Alpinestars launches spring 2026 collection with lightweight airbag

Alpinestars has introduced its spring 2026 collection, featuring 185 products that blend motorcycle protection with streetwear aesthetics. The lineup targets urban riders through the MO.ST.EQ. concept, emphasizing discreet functionality. A highlight is the Tech-Air 5 Plasma, the company's lightest airbag system at 1.53 kg.

The Alpinestars spring 2026 collection spans Racing/Sport, Adventure, and Contemporary categories, with a focus on the Contemporary line under the MO.ST.EQ. (Moto Streetwear Equipment) banner. This approach integrates functional pocket layouts, fused materials, and motorcycle-grade construction into everyday apparel, appealing to commuters who prefer not to appear as bikers off the bike.

In jackets, options include the Flight Air Jacket, priced at 239.95 euros and available in four colors for warm weather protection. It pairs with the Unite Jacket and the women-specific Stella Moshell Jacket, alongside the Mogress Airflow Gloves in five color variants starting at 79.95 euros. The Contemporary Classic series features the Dice Jacket at 259.95 euros and Bruiser at 239.95 euros, incorporating Nucleon Flex Plus protectors and compatibility with the Tech-Air system, alongside vintage-inspired details like spiral patches.

For versatile use, the Provoke Jacket and Radium Tech Hoodies offer wind resistance and slim fits suitable for city and light off-road riding. Pants such as the Flex-AST Canvas at 199.95 euros and Flex-AST 5 Denim include stretch construction with knee and hip protectors, while the Juggernaut V2 provides ergonomic adjustments.

Gloves range from breathable Ignite mesh models to leather Mustang v3 with Plasma knuckle protection. Footwear adds four models, including the Ride-63 in leather and canvas, merging retro sneaker looks with protective elements.

The Tech-Air 5 Plasma airbag vest, now available in Europe and internationally after a U.S. launch, weighs 1.53 kg—over 25 percent lighter than its predecessor. It uses six sensors and AI for crash detection, with modes for Offroad, Street, and Track, controllable via an LED button. Bluetooth connectivity links to a smartphone app for status monitoring. The vest activates by zipping and securing a magnetic flap, offering 30 hours of battery life and up to eight hours from one hour of USB-C charging. Users can replace the gas inflator up to six times if permitted locally, and the airbag is removable for washing. It includes a breathable back protector.

Certifications cover CE standards, EN1621-2 Level 1 for the back protector, EN 1621-4 Level 1 for the airbag, and Class C under EN 17092-6 for the vest. Other collection items include the GP Force V2 leather suit at 999.95 euros, Supertech R10 Arius helmet at 1,199.95 euros, and Andes Pro Drystar XF jacket at 499.95 euros.
