Alpinestars - Tech-Air 3 v2 Leather Vest

Forget playing it safe—this is protection with attitude. The Tech-Air® 3 v2 takes the soul of a classic leather vest and fuses it with crash-detecting, airbag-blasting tech that doesn’t just save your ass, it saves your ride. It’s raw, tough, and smart enough to know when things are about to go wrong—activating in the blink of an eye to keep your chest, back, and shoulders covered when it matters most.

Inside the vest lives a brain of accelerometers and gyroscopes that constantly read your every move, waiting to fire the airbag before your body even hits the ground. The cowhide leather chassis is supple yet tough, built with ribbed stretch panels for comfort and perforated zones for airflow, so it feels like gear you want to ride in, not just something you “have to” wear. Add in Bluetooth connectivity, LED/haptic alerts, and a 40-hour rechargeable battery, and you’ve got tech that’s as relentless as your riding.

When you’re done, the whole system packs down small enough to stash in your backpack or pannier. No extra sensors, no external hookups—just zip it, ride it, trust it. The Tech-Air® 3 v2 is more than protection—it’s an edge, a statement, and the difference between limping away or laughing it off.

Key Features:

• Tech-Air® 3 v2 is a fully autonomous active Airbag System and does not require any external connections or sensors on the motorcycle for the System to operate
• Tech-Air® v2 3 incorporates six integrated sensors (three accelerometers [one triaxial accelerometer], and three gyroscopes [one triaxial gyroscope]) to provide the best crash monitoring performance in various riding situations, and even when stopped
• Activates automatically via the magnetic zip closure
• The System's packable design allows for easy storage in a backpack, saddle bag, top case, or pannier when not in use
• Outer chassis is constructed from cow leather with a softening process for comfort with ribbed leather elasticated side panels for comfort and expansion volume
• Upper chest and shoulders feature perforated panels
• Tech-Air® 3 v2 is designed with a center zipper with two internal magnet snap buttons on each side— one to hold the chest bladder in place across the chest while riding, and one to fold it back and conceal when not riding
• Two zippered hand pockets, two zippered chest pockets with a sunglasses channel on the right chest, and an inner concealed pocket
• Waist loop to attach gloves or other items
• A discretely hidden but easily visible LED display on the front chest with reflective inner backing to optimize light visibility indicates the airbag's operational status
• The LED display also incorporates a haptic alert, which vibrates to confirm the System is armed, and alerts the rider when the battery is running low
• Tech-Air® 3 v2 incorporates Alpinestars' Pro 2nd Generation compact Electronic Control Unit (ECU) which may be found in the ECU pocket located in the upper back of the inner, Tech-Air® 3 vest
• Bluetooth low energy (BLE 5.0) connectivity to the Tech-Air® App allows riders to monitor the System's operational status, battery status, as well as provides a detailed map of motorcyclists rides via MyRide
• Upgradable system software is accessible via the Tech-Air® App, where riders can quickly verify the installed software version and eventually perform the latest software updates
• Tech-Air® 3 v2 uses an integrated certified lithium-ion battery, with a battery life of 40 hours and a recharge time of approximately 4 hours
• The gas inflator that provides the inflation gas for the airbag's deployment is located in the inflator housing on the left side of the lower back of the rider
• Tech-Air® 3 v2's ECU seal-protection ensures all-weather performance and is certified to function between -20°C and +40°C
