Protection

The MAXDURA comes equipped with premium Alpinestars Nucleon Flex Pro CE Level 2 armour in the shoulders and elbows, delivering lightweight yet highly effective impact protection without sacrificing comfort or mobility.

Ventilation & Climate Control

Adventure riding conditions can change fast, and the MAXDURA is designed to adapt on the move. Large direct ventilation openings and rear exhaust ports provide excellent airflow during warmer rides, while the laminated Drystar®XF membrane keeps rain and wind out when conditions turn bad.

Tech-Air® Compatible

Designed to work with the Alpinestars Tech-Air® Off-Road Airbag System once the internal shoulder and elbow protectors are removed, making the MAXDURA an ideal choice for serious adventure and dual sport riders wanting advanced protection options.

Storage

Purpose-built for adventure travel, the jacket includes spacious water-resistant cargo pockets along with a waterproof chest pocket to keep valuables protected and easily accessible on the ride.
