Alpinestars Releases Limited Edition ‘Cactus’ Racer Tech Gear Set
NASHVILLE, TN—The 2019 Monster Energy AMA Supercross Championship heads to Nissan Stadium this weekend as the world’s best dirt riders battle to be crowned the King of Nashville.
In celebration of the event, Alpinestars has teamed up with influential fashion brand Cactus Plant Flea Market to release the Limited Edition ‘Cactus’ Gear Set. Inspired by designer Cynthia Lu’s fluid and eye-catching combination of type, playful graphics, and bright screenprint, the unique ‘Cactus’ Racer Tech Jersey and Pants and Radar Glove feature a striking multi-colored paint scheme and eye-catching Astars logos, allowing riders to express their individuality as they dazzle on the dirt.
This bold styling is also applied to the ‘Cactus’ S-M8 helmet, which boasts a multi-colored paint scheme complete with yellow visor, prominent rainbow roundel at the rear and green Astars logos, and the CE-certified ‘Cactus’ Tech 10, a technologically advanced and protective boot that incorporates innovative materials in a streamlined designed for a lighter, more anatomically profiled performer, as worn by Justin Barcia and Eli Tomac at the meeting.
RACER TECH JERSEY
Alpinestars class-leading Racer apparel collection has undergone a design evolution with the introduction of the new Racer Tech line. Featuring a new pattern design fit and construction materials, resulting in an improved weight performance and an athletic regular fit, this lightweight jersey features a knitted stretch poly-fabric chassis for freedom of movement, plus an extended rear hem to keep the jersey inside the pant at all times.
RACER TECH PANT
The Racer Tech Pant features a new advanced flexible design construction with 4-way stretch fabric and heavy poly-fabric main shell offering high levels of flexibility and durability. A leather leg panel protects against heat while the innovative 3D knee construction gives plenty of freedom of movement for the legs. Comes in the unique Tech Compass colorways.
RADAR GLOVE
Lightweight and with excellent comfort features, Alpinestars’ Radar Glove incorporates a single-piece spandex upper and synthetic suede palm reinforcement for high levels of comfort and improved feeling on the bike’s controls.
S-M8
The all-new Supertech M8 helmet is the result of more than five years of intensive study, development, and testing. Based on Alpinestars’ five decades of protection development, we scrutinized every possible aspect to engineer a helmet that is safer and more thoughtfully designed than anything else.
THE TECH 10
The Tech 10 has set the standard for motocross boot performance and protection for over a decade. The completely re-designed Tech 10 boot raises the performance envelope even further. While it maintains the iconic look of its predecessor, every single piece has been redesigned and tested on our top Supercross and Motocross athletes. The Tech 10 overhaul had three important priorities: functionality, performance, and safety. Creative construction techniques with lighter, more durable composite materials yield a slimmer and more streamlined boot. The new Tech 10 has a greater range of movement, flexibility, and support in a considerably lighter package.
