This ergonomically designed protector offers superior comfort while safeguarding your ribs and kidneys. Enjoy a customized and supportive fit courtesy of intelligent adjustment features.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this rib support is engineered with a technical, multi-layered main construction. This ensures an optimized fit, stellar protection, and unmatched comfort for the wearer. The advanced soft poly-lycra inner lining allows for the protector to be worn either underneath or over your regular garment. It embodies a dual composition padding that comprises a 3mm high-density poly-foam layer seamlessly laminated with a 4mm absorption EVA layer.
Alpinestars has carefully selected materials that contribute to crucial weight-saving performance, without compromising on protection. The exterior boasts a 500 Dernier Cordura fabric, notable for its high resistance to abrasion. Further enhancing the protective element, dual-density protectors, strategically placed and ergonomically shaped, integrate a fiberglass core along with a robust PE hardshell outer. This composition excels at impact energy dispersion and shock absorption.
The central back panel is adjustable, featuring Velcro attachments that provide a complete range of fit, allowing you to don the protection both under and over your garment. The forepart includes a fully adjustable strap with a D-ring closure, supplemented with an elasticated section for additional comfort. The shoulder straps, conceived with a highly breathable 3D mesh and an elasticated gusset, ensure a snug and secure fit. Lastly, the rib protector is perforated at the rear to enhance comfort and ventilation during intense driving sessions.
