Super comfy

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.

Comfy as hell

10 March 2025 by Josh A

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 comfort

02 January 2025 by Anonymous

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

Looks great, feels great

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.

Absolutely Fantastic!

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.

Great Hoodie

01 April 2022 by John B

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.

The ultimate safety / casual compromise

06 December 2021 by Matthew W

I always have the issue of fashion over form however with this a stars amazing hoody I get the best of both worlds. Great protection (with standard armour and slot for back protector) plus a really good looking hoody for walking around in during the day

Absolutely amazing Service from the team as always !!

Worth trying on both sizes (one up and down) to be sure you get the right one

Very good well thought out product

30 September 2021 by Daniel M

Very happy with the product looks like any other alpinestars hoodie with the same fit an comfort.

That's where the similarities end as the construction is a lot more robust, along with added layers in slide contact areas and internal pockets for armour.

Loops in the cuffs and loops with pop buttons in the bottom elastic that can be looped around your belt to prevent the wind causing the hoodie to ride up. This along with zips on the large front pocket shows this has been thought about for the rider.

My only criticism is that it does not come with a back protector (it does have a pocket to hold one an i have put one in) but I imagine this was a costing decision regarding the sale price point . It is worth noting too on this issue when a back protector is installed it's evident as the outline can be seen an so does detract a little from the "causal" nature of the hoodie an would be a personal preference as to if the added protection was worth it in your usage.

Over all very happy an would fully recommend.
