Care Instructions
Alpinestars say care varies by product and point to the label inside the garment first. Their published care guidance for leather riding gear, written for their leather jackets: take the grit off with a soft microfiber cloth, then wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For dirtier areas, use a pH-neutral leather cleaner diluted in lukewarm water, without soaking the seams. On perforated leather, use as little moisture as possible and blot rather than rub. Once the leather is fully dry, apply a thin, even coat of leather conditioner. Take the protectors out before cleaning and wipe them with a damp cloth rather than soaking them. Dry and store away from direct sun and heat, hung on a wide hanger in a cool, ventilated place, under a breathable cover rather than plastic.

Description:Alpinestars Missile V3 Airflow Leather Pants – Black/Black
Product Overview
A perforated leather riding pant from Alpinestars’ Racing/Sport range. Alpinestars describe the V3 as a revised “flex fit” design: pre-curved legs plus stretch zones at the knee and waist, cut to sit close in a riding position.
The main body is 1.3 mm bovine leather, doubled up in the areas most likely to touch the ground, with perforated leather panels on the thigh for airflow. Alpinestars certify the pants to EN 17092 at class AA.
Knee protection is built in — Alpinestars’ GP-R Lite internal knee protector — and each knee carries a replaceable Sport knee slider. Hip protection is not in the box: Alpinestars list their Bioflex Hip Protectors as compatible protection for these pants, sold separately.
The pants are Tech-Air® ready and made to work with the Tech-Air® 10 airbag system and its extended hip protection. The airbag system is sold separately. A waist zipper connects the pants to Alpinestars riding jackets.
