Verified Customer Reviews for Alpinestars Missile V3 Airflow Leather Jacket
Bit more expensive than others, but top quality an
24 Feb 2026 by Martin
Really nice looking jacket, some nice features. Fit is really nice, but I bought one size up from what I expected. I also bought the optional (long) back protector, which surprisingly made no difference to the fit or feel. I also bought the matching zip together trousers, which were also spot on. I tried and purchased from the shop, service from sportsbikeshop was spot on, as always. I knocked off one star because although you can't knock Astars quality, it is a little pricey.

Great fit

I was torn between this and the ‘Dusk’ jacket.
At 180cm & 87kg the size 44 was the best fit in both jackets.
Decided to go for the missile jacket due to the snug’er fit and the level 2 armour.
Sportsbikedshop returns kept it stress free!
It’s still breaking in but very comfortable and the airflow is very cool in this hot weather.
Just need to buy the matching trousers now ?
Style: Black / White / Red Fluo
