Alpinestars Launches 2021 Oscar By Alpinestars Collection

Alpinestars Launches 2021 Oscar By Alpinestars Collection: Bomber, Sixty Three And Trucker Jackets.

Asolo, Italy and Torrance, California. Paying homage to roots in early motocross and motorcycle culture, Oscar by Alpinestars exists as a classic, rugged collection punctuated by modern materials, processes and features. Drawing inspiration from the 57-year old heritage of the Alpinestars brand and fusing it with the technology of today, Oscar is the embodiment of traditional motorcycle style from a contemporary perspective. Merging Alpinestars’ rich history of innovation and authentic design, the OSCAR range exists as a fusion of classic styles and silhouettes, offering an equal balance of form and function to create unique, premium garments that are guided by the timeless rebel-style essence of motorcycle racing.

The new additions to the Oscar by Alpinestars collection line-up deliver quality and high-performance in urban optimized jackets designed to own the street with the style and attitude that symbolize the Oscar ethos.

The casually-styled Bomber Jacket typifies this approach. Constructed from a hard wearing twill fabric with an additional coated layer for effective weather protection, this jacket is also equipped with Nucleon Flex Plus armor on the shoulders and elbows for optimal impact protection, with reinforcements for additional abrasion resistance, while the removable fleece vest liner allows it to be tailored to match the weather condi­tions.


This meticulous attention is also applied to the Sixty Three Leather Jacket, which has been given a heritage look for that authentic classic feel. Yet look beyond the vintage-styling, and the Sixty Three Leather Jacket’s premium bovine leather delivers superior abrasion resis­tance, with the aramidic fiber reinforcements offering additional protection.


For those riders seeking a more deconstructed vibe, the clean and stripped back Trucker Jacket is fabricated from a hard wearing canvas for superior durability with a windproof coating and sports a removable fleece vest liner for effective weather protection. This jacket is also equipped with subtly incorporated Nucleon Flex Plus armor on the shoulders and elbows for optimal impact protection, with reinforcements for additional abrasion resistance.
