A bit of retroness from Alpinestars
Thu, 03 Feb 2011Looking cool on a scooter: It's hard but I think this jacket might help me out. It's the Alpinestars Velocity. A retro-styled jacket with CE approved armour, a removable liner and YKK zips.
It's a quality bit of kit. The leather feels super-supple and not rigid like a lot of bike jackets. Won't be long 'til its bedded in. And it'll double up as a jacket for when I'm out and about or down the pub, grabbing a swift half (of shandy).
Check out the pics below, there are loads of cool touches like the stitching around the pockets and the faded Alpinestars logo.
Alpinestars put an RRP on it of £399 but I found it closer to £300 online. Check out alpinestars.com for more info
