Advice & Guides If it feels like armour in your bike kit then the law demands it is actually proper, protective armour. Here's how to tell how effective your impact protection is...
Customers praise the hoodie for its comfort, lightweight feel and stylish look, saying it fits well and feels like a normal hoodie while still offering reassuring protection. They also value the thoughtful rider-focused details such as armoured pockets, belt loops and wrist loops that help prevent it riding up. The main drawback is that a back protector is not included, but overall customers find it good value and would recommend it.
My 14 year olds hoodie. Reports it’s comfy and feels ‘safe’ apparently.
Hope never to find out if it is ‘safe’!!!
Perfect for local riding on warm evening, whilst being reassured you have some protection too.
Really nice looking hoodie that fits perfectly.
Another great product by alpinestars and great price by SBS as usual.
Great fit (one size larger than normal) excellent quality and a good price delivered next day. Great service, no faffing around. Recommend SBS
Comfortable and well armored. Great hoodie for summer.
I would definitely recommend this hoodie to anyone it is super lightweight and It's a great bretheable hoodie. 10/10 comfort with great shoulder and elbow armor with a insert pocket for a back armor peice.
VERY COOL IN SUMMER CAME SUPER QUICK, THE BEST TOP I HAVE EVER OWNED BY FAR GREAT QUALITY LOOKS AMAZING.
It's just like wearing a normal hoodie, except a slightly heavier version of a hoodie. Will be buying one again when my current one gets abit worn and tatty.
Little over a thousand miles using it so far. The look of it is cracking I really like the fit. The only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 is that the OEM armour is incredibly thin, like reels of paper thin, I'll be replacing it with D30 stuff but it's not that big a deal given how affordable it is! Doesn't flap about in the wind as it's quite a heavy tog and I'm yet to be choked out by the hood so overall I would buy another when the time comes
Now this is absolute comfort the fit is spot on,the pad sizes are ofcourse universal but there is good coverage all round,unfortunately this comes with no back protector and the alpinestars one is around £60 so this is why it's not a 5 star review because the hoodie is expensive enough it would be a 5 star product if it come with a back protector or do a discount off a back protector when you purchase the hoodie atleast 40% off that will even draw more people to check it out as humans love deals and offers but overall I'm happy with the quallity of materials well put together also I like that it has the stretchy elastic to connect with your lowers so the hoodie dosnt ride up when riding that is a very nice attention to detail
Really impressed with the quality of this hoodie. The fit is perfect, it looks and feels just like a normal hoodie even with the back protector in (which you have to buy separately unfortunately) and is really comfortable on and off the bike. It's ideal for this time of year when it's not warm enough for a mesh jacket but too hot for a bike jacket. Compared to others as well it's very good value for money too.
Usual fantastic SBS service so no need to go into detail there, they're always absolutely spot on.
Bought this hoodie as I wanted a light weight alternative to my leather jacket. The hoodie itself is very comfortable and breathable. It looks and fits great.
Comfy, stylish, protective,
Down side back armor isn't included that aside for the price good value too,
Has belt loops in the band to stop it riding up and wrist loops to keep sleeves down
Bought this hoodie as i wanted a nice light weight alternative to my mesh jacket, especially now it's summer. The hoodie itself is very comfortable and breathable.
Great fit. Usually wear medium clothes and got large as going over. Unintrusive armour with room for a back protector.
Needed some kit to wear this summer for my 5 min ride to work and didn't fancy putting on my leathers. The guys in the shop recommended the hoodie and I'm over the moon with it.
