FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Is this jacket 100% waterproof?

Yes. Thanks to the 3-layer laminate construction, the outer fabric does not soak up water. Rain beads off immediately, preventing the jacket from getting heavy and ensuring it dries extremely fast.

Can I wear an airbag with this jacket?

Absolutely. The jacket is "Tech-Air® Ready," featuring specific expansion zones to accommodate the deployment of an Alpinestars airbag system.

How is the fit of the Andes Pro?

It features a dedicated "Adventure Fit" (ADV-Fit). With volume adjusters on the sleeves and an elastic waist cord, you can easily customize the fit to your body shape.

Is it suitable for hot summer days?

While it is a fully waterproof jacket, the large ventilation panels and the high breathability of the XF membrane ensure excellent airflow when the temperatures rise.
