GP Tech v5 1PC Leather Suit
Construction & Materials
Constructed from a blend of kangaroo leather and race-grade bovine leather for superior abrasion resistance.
Dual leather layers in key abrasion zones including elbows, forearms, seat, hips, and back.
Bonded Kvlar® net increases cut, tear, and abrasion resistance while significantly reducing heat transfer to the rider’s body during asphalt slides.
Additional leather reinforcement patch strategically positioned on the inner elbow for enhanced durability.
Fit, Ergonomics & Mobility
All-new racing pattern construction provides an enhanced, adaptive fit with a precise race-oriented cut.
Enlarged stretch Kevlar® crotch panel improves rider mobility, with optimized stitching lines for greater comfort.
New upper shoulder and neck cut design features a smooth stitched line from the neck to the upper shoulder for maximum mobility and reduced neck pressure in a racing tuck.
New waist accordion design improves ergonomics and aerodynamic performance. Positioned lower for better functionality, with a 3D pre-tensioned construction and 3D side curve to reduce bulk and enhance airflow management.
Extensive stretch Lycra inserts in key areas promote freedom of movement.
Pre-curved sleeves with a flexible tapered wrist design offer excellent range of motion, while the angled zipper reduces pressure on the wrist.
Lightweight, breathable stretch fabric on the lower leg allows the suit to be worn over or under the inner bootie of Alpinestars Supertech R boots.
Aerodynamics
Engineered and optimized for ultra-low drag and increased stability both in a racing tuck and when fully leaned over in corners.
The speed hump is specifically designed for use with the Alpinestars S-R10 helmet for maximum aerodynamic performance when worn together.
An aerodynamic bonded backing layer on the upper arms and back flattens the material surface to minimize drag while improving structural strength and abrasion resistance.
Strategically positioned silicone grip patch on the inner legs improves grip and contact with the bike’s tank.
Ventilation & Comfort
Extensive perforations for optimized airflow and breathability.
Full-length suit lining incorporates integrated padding for additional impact resistance.
Mesh liner enhances breathability and riding comfort.
Knee Sliders & Track Features
Equipped with Alpinestars GP Tech Knee Slider, optimized for track use.
Anatomical design improves contact feel, wear distribution, and reduces weight.
Slim hook-and-loop patch with strategically positioned V-cuts enables more precise knee placement while reducing bunching, further supporting aerodynamic performance.
Seams & Durability
Triple stitching on the outer legs includes a flat seam with dual stitching extending into the suit for enhanced abrasion and tear resistance.
