The ST-1 WP motorcycle jacket is a budget-friendly entry level model. A modern, adventurous touring style, linked to a high dose of comfort and lots of protection against weather conditions that will get you far from home.
For this ST-1 WP Alpinestars chose to go for a fixed, waterproof membrane, attached to the wear and tear-resistant exterior. Underneath that first layer with breathing and waterproof properties, there’s a removable thermal lining which makes this ST-1 WP motorcycle jacket a very practical 2-in-1. Alpinestars opted for an 80-gram thermal lining which suggests that the ST-1 isn’t really looking to go for the extremes. Don’t forget to add the ventilation panels on the chest and what you get is a pretty complete package.
The cut of the ST-1 WP is that of an adventurous motorcycle jacket. A little longer in the back than in the front, with shoulders that were given a little relief and some contouring. This ergonomic assistance postpones fatigue and enhances comfort. There are a few individual customisation options, with the centring belts and press studs on the upper arms as most defining ones.
The ST-1 WP has a few storage pockets, in the thermal lining as well as in the outer layer. The two cargo pockets in the front are the most apparent ones.
The ST-1 WP motorcycle jacket is Tech Air-ready which means that it can contain an airbag system. Until that is installed you can already count on the Nucleon Flex Plus elbow and shoulder protectors that are standard equipment. Optionally, you can add a Nucleon Plasma back protector (level 2-certified) or Nucleon KR-CELLi back protector (level 1-certified) and even Nucleon Flex Pro Ci chest protectors.
For the perfect combination it is best to take a look at the ST-1 WP motorcycle trousers.
