Class A certification is intended for protective motorcycle clothing where comfort and mobility are priorities. This fleece does not provide the higher abrasion coverage of an AA or AAA garment, so riders should choose protection appropriate to their journey and riding environment.
Weather and seasonal use
The DWR treatment helps the outer fabric resist light showers and road spray, but Alpinestars does not list a waterproof membrane. This is not a waterproof touring jacket. Its fleece construction is best suited to urban and casual road use in mild or cooler conditions, with layering adjusted for the temperature.
