At the initial stage, these were hiking and ski boots. Then shoes were added to them. In the 1990s, the range expanded incredibly and began to include almost any clothing and accessories necessary for motorcyclists.
Alpinestars is now one of the largest sports brands specializing in motorbikes.. The company has offices in Los Angeles and Tokyo. Today, it is governed by the founder’s son, Gabriele Mazzarolo. Alpinestars has become a favorite brand of many world champions.

When sensors are triggered in an extreme situation, the suit is filled with nitrogen. The action takes place instantly, which greatly increases the chances of a favorable outcome in the event of an accident.

Motorcycle pants

Protective properties are achieved by enhancing the strength of the fabric in the required areas with special aramid Kevlar fiber. The cut of the pants is straight, but close to the anatomical bends of the legs - this provides convenience and comfort while riding. Some models in the knee area use accordion inserts that provide even greater comfort while driving a motorcycle.

Special attention deserves the exclusive VIKA female kit. The VIKA kit includes a jacket, pants, boots and gloves. It has a restrained design, reminiscent of a vintage style, made with a combination of black and gold. Women's motorcycle clothing is made of thin leather. Through the use of foam and aramid inserts, protectors on the joints, the necessary protective characteristics are achieved.
