ALPINESTARS VECTOR JACKET

ALPINESTARS VECTOR JACKET

The Vector Jacket by Alpinestars is a soft vest with an approved back protector, usable as an alternative to a hydration backpack since it includes a pocket for the hydration bladder built in. Ideal for MTB, Enduro, or training rides. The jacket’s goal is to provide maximum protection for the biker. On the rear pocket of the Vector Jacket, you’ll find a pocket to house the protector and the hydration bladder, which has a tube that passes through a hole on the left side and a loop, at the height of the left shoulder blade, for the rubber tube to pass through. All the fabric is perforated and breathable, with the possibility to adjust the elastic zones as needed. Usage during bike outings is the same as a backpack, with the substantial difference of lightness: the Vector Jacket is extremely light to ensure maximum comfort and full freedom of movement for the biker. The objective, however, is total protection from bumps or impacts, in fact the jacket features excellent protection systems on the back, neck, shoulders, and chest. It can be worn with a shirt underneath, or directly against the skin. The Vector Jacket can also be used in hot temperatures.
