Verified Customer Reviews for Alpinestars Stella Tech-Air 3 Airbag System
More comfortable than expected
07 June 2025 by Anonymous
I have been riding with the air vest under my jacket and I have been pleasantly surprised how comfortable it is.
As another layer it does keep me warm so during summer it’s best to wear it with a cooler jacket.
Worth the investment
