![]() ![]() Hopefully I will never have to test it's abrasion qualities. This will be my first (street Jacket) and ive never been down on pavement before. The stock armor is barely even armor although it does accept bio armor which I may install in the future. If it fails I was thinking about having a beefy zipper put on by a sewing shop.speaking of.how much did that cost you? Anyhow, it is a sweet looking jacket and it fits me quite well. ![]() As noted above, the zipper is pretty weak looking. It was $200 online and overall it seems pretty well made. I actually just bought an alpinestars T-AST Air Mesh jacket for my first street jacket. Sadly Alpinestars stuff just isnt any good anymore. Looks like Dainese is going to be getting my money from now on - the last pair of gloves I bought from them lasted me almost two years including track days. I have always been a fan of their products - not any more. I contacted them to get a replacement pair of gloves and received no response. the last pair of Alpinestar gloves I bought (For $100 mind you) started showing significant signs of wear within a few weeks as well. When Joe Rocket and Icon were new I bought pairs of their gloves and they were garbage and wore out either the first day (.and turned my hands blue - Joe Rocket) or within a matter of weeks. The last couple pairs of gloves I have bought have been borderline rubbish - almost like what an upstart company would be producing. That one broke within a matter of months and when I called them back, they informed me that they didn't replace zippers anymore so I had it done at a local shop. So I sent it off and when it came back they replaced the zipper, albeit with a much cheaper plastic one than was on there before. ![]() Most of these products have been of fairly high quality.Īfter about 6 years the zipper on my jacket gave way and when I called them they told me they would replace the zipper for free! awesome! This is what I'm talking about. I own their leathers, boots, lots of gloves, and I have worn a Spinner jacket nearly every day for the past ten years. I have always had good luck with Alpinestars products. ![]()
