In this episode, I'm joined by Lurch and we discuss warm-weather protective motorcycle gear.   Recently, we embarked on a 10-day motorcycle road trip around the East Coast, covering over 3,000 miles. For the entire journey, I exclusively wore the Alpinestars T SP X Superair Jacket, and it didn’t take long for me to fall in love with this affordable, progressive piece of riding gear. After thoroughly testing it in various conditions and temperatures, I decided to bring it right into the Law Abiding Biker Store.

The Myth of Riding in a T-Shirt

When the weather gets hot, it's common to see riders hitting the road in nothing but T-shirts, mistakenly believing it keeps them cool. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Unfortunately, this misconception leaves many riders tired, dehydrated, sunburned, and most concerning, completely unprotected in case of an accident.

As a full-time Police Motorcycle Officer and Investigator with 28 years of experience, I've responded to numerous motorcycle collisions, including fatalities. The sight of a long skin trail on the pavement is a grim reminder of the dangers of riding without proper gear. If you witness this once, you’ll never consider riding in a T-shirt again.

Gone are the days when leather was the only option for motorcycle protection. Today, there’s no excuse to ride unprotected, thanks to advancements in protective gear. Modern riding jackets not only offer superior protection but also excel in regulating body temperature and airflow. The Alpinestars T SP X Superair Jacket is a prime example, combining high quality with an entry-level price, making it accessible for all riders.

The Alpinestars T SP X Superair Jacket: A Game Changer Optimal Cooling and Comfort

One of the standout features of the Alpinestars T SP X Superair Jacket is its exceptional internal climate control. With extensive mesh paneling on the torso, arms, and upper chest, the jacket ensures optimal airflow, keeping you cool even in hot weather. Unlike a T-shirt, which absorbs heat and causes you to lose moisture rapidly, this jacket helps you retain moisture, keeping you hydrated and comfortable.

Constructed from lightweight 600D poly-fabric, the T SP X Superair Jacket offers excellent abrasion resistance, providing reliable protection in the event of a fall. The jacket is equipped with Nucleon Flex Plus elbow and shoulder armor, known for its flexibility and breathability. Despite its protective features, the armor has a thin profile that enhances comfort and allows for freedom of movement. An Alpinestars Nucleon Plasma Back Protector Insert can be added. The jacket is available in different colors. 

Versatility Across Seasons

During my trip, I experienced temperatures ranging from 60°F to over 100°F, and the jacket performed exceptionally well in all conditions. For cooler temperatures, pairing the Superair Jacket with the Alpinestars Purpose Mid-Layer Jacket extends its usability to three seasons. Below 60°F, the base layer adds warmth.

The Importance of a Proper Base Layer

From my experience in various riding disciplines—street, adventure, and dirt—wearing a proper base layer in hot weather is crucial. It provides support and helps regulate your temperature and perspiration. The Alpinestars Ride Tech v2 Summer Long Sleeve Underwear Top & Bottoms is, by far, the best hot weather base layer I've ever used. It instantly cools you down once you're on the move, significantly enhancing your comfort.
