Alpinestars GP-R Jacket

Posted on: January 26th, 2013 by Road Rider MCA No Comments


Fortunately, jackets like the Alpinestars GP-R make our jobs really, really easy.

When shopping for new gear, we encourage you to discover the intersection where safety, fit, feel, and function come together. The GP-R is, simply put, a first-rate leather jacket. It offers Alpinestars’ uncompromising attitude toward safety and quality, and blends it with awesome style that looks good wherever the road takes you.

The GP-R has a slightly more relaxed fit than the GP-Tech or GP-Pro, so the fit is a little bit looser and longer in the torso. It also has moderate articulation at the arms, making the GP-R a comfortable cut for most riding styles. The leather on the front panels is perforated, which provides plenty of airflow and ventilation for summer rides. Alpinestars says the GP-R is “designed to let you feel as cool as you look”. Maybe that’s all I needed to say?
