Technical Data Sheet:

• Alpinestars composite stretch technology, A-CS® Plus, stretch panels on torso for outstanding breathability, comfort and freedom of movement, as well as offering a lower weight and lower profile than a traditional accordion leather panel (A-CS® Plus panels are approximately 9% lighter than leather panels).
