Alpinestars A-Supra Race Jersey Review 2026

When Alpinestars say the A-Supra Race Jersey draws on decades of experience equipping the best two-wheel riders in the world, that claim has weight. The A-Supra Race is the jersey Alpinestars build for competition gravity mountain biking, and the specification reflects that intent without compromise.

The main body and sleeves are constructed from soft, lightweight, micro-perforated polyester with 12% spandex. Micro-perforation creates direct airflow paths through the fabric, managing the significant heat generation that comes from hard racing efforts, both during physical pedalling sections and during sustained high-speed descending where aerodynamic cooling dominates. The spandex content in the main body means the jersey moves with body position changes rather than pulling or restricting.

Ultra-stretch fabric inserts with 15% elastane are positioned on the sleeves and chest, the two areas where race-position body movement is most dynamic. These panels are engineered to move precisely with the rider — allowing full shoulder rotation during cornering, chest expansion during heavy physical efforts, and arm extension through technical features — without creating drag or pulling back. This level of freedom of movement is genuinely different from what a standard gravity jersey provides.

Bonded cuffs and collar complete the race-ready construction. Both are finished to integrate cleanly with gloves, protective gear, and full-face or enduro helmets, with no rough edges or stitching lines that create pressure points during a race run. The longer drop tail maintains clean coverage over gravity-specific shorts and back protectors throughout the riding position.

Who is the Alpinestars A-Supra Race Jersey aimed at?

The A-Supra Race Jersey is for enduro racers, downhill competitors, and serious gravity trail riders who want race-level jersey specification. The micro-perforated polyester, ultra-stretch elastane panels, and bonded construction are all targeted at riders who push hard enough that these features make a real performance difference. It suits competitive riders from elite to amateur who want to wear the same level of kit Alpinestars’ top athletes use.
