In this evolved version, the Radium V2 motorcycle jeans are still a worthy addition to the Alpinestars range.
The Italian manufacturer of premium racing material has propelled lots of knowledge and knowhow toward ‘urban’ motorcycle clothing – the Radium V2 being one example of this. The Radium V2 is made of mono-layer stretch polyamide, which means that it only needs one layer to combine comfort with safety and style.
If you are a little bit of a style guru, you’ll nominate this cut ‘regular tapered fit’. Relatively straight but not completely. At the bottom, the Radium V2 is tapered, which means that your motorcycle boots are more likely to go over them than in. The enhanced and more comfortable sitting position is the direct result of the small adjustments Alpinestars applied to the design. The motorcycle jeans are contoured on the knees with a designed cutout in the back and with a specific waist that delivers more riding comfort and protection in the back.
These may look like regular jeans; they obviously are not. Pay close attention to the Cordura label at the back pocket. Hardwearing and durable material that has found its spot in most motorcycle clothing and that clearly indicates the ambitions of this Radium V2. We are glad to add that these motorcycle jeans stay comfortable even during the hotter days, thanks to the effective moisture-wicking and thermal treatment given to the materials used.
In short, the Radium V2 are safe and comfortable motorcycle jeans. Adjustable Nucleon Flex Plus knee protectors – adjustable at three heights – come standard, as do the hip protectors.
Also worth mentioning are the triple seams, the special attention granted to comfort at the groin area, and the excellent zip-and-button closure.
There is maintenance clothing, and then there is clothing maintenance. Good, solid motorcycle clothing is an investment in comfort and personal safety. So invest in its maintenance after your purchase and enjoy your gear for longer.
