The fourth-generation Stella Andes Drystar motorcycle jacket is purpose-built for women riders, continuing the proven platform of the Andes series. This textile touring motorcycle jacket combines waterproofing with versatility, making it suitable for year-round riding.
Its main shell is constructed from reinforced 450D polyfabric with ripstop textile reinforcements at key impact zones, being the shoulders, elbows, and forearms. The integrated Drystar membrane delivers complete waterproofing and excellent breathability. A removable thermal liner with 100 g insulation in the body and 80 g in the sleeves keeps the Stella Andes v4 comfortable across a wide temperature range. Extended direct-vent air inlets (located under the arms) offer effective airflow while riding.
Pre-curved sleeves feature stretch panels for improved movement, while the three-quarter length cut of the Stella Andes v4 Drystar remains distinctive of a proper touring motorcycle jacket. The slightly elongated back offers extra coverage in the typical riding position.
Tailored specifically for women, the Stella version features a female-specific anatomical fit. The cut, pre-shaping, and sleeve and torso lengths differ from the men’s model, ensuring a precise and comfortable fit. Additional adjustment options include Velcro waist straps for centring, a collar drawcord, snap buttons on the biceps, Velcro adjustment straps on the forearms, and secure wrist closures.
Ample storage space includes multiple water-repellent outer pockets, two internal pockets, and a large rear cargo pocket. A hydration hose loop on the chest is ideal for long-distance touring. The water-repellent cargo pockets also feature integrated quick-access compartments.
Nucleon Flex Plus shoulder and elbow protectors are CE Level 1 certified according to EN 1621-1:2012. Integrated compartments for optional Nucleon Plasma chest protectors and Nucleon Plasma back protector are included. The Stella Andes v4 Drystar is Tech-Air Ready, designed to be seamlessly compatible with Alpinestars’ Tech-Air Airbag Systems.
A waterproof VISLON front zipper provides reliable closure, while reflective detailing enhances visibility in low-light conditions.
This motorcycle jacket is fully CE-certified to EN 17092-4:2020 (A Class). The ideal combination is with the matching Stella Andes v4 Drystar motorcycle trousers for a complete touring setup.
