Alpinestars Missile v3 Leather Pants Short

Missile v3 leather pants, short leg

The Missile v3 Leather Pants Short are the short-leg version of Alpinestars' Missile v3 pants: the same 1.3mm bovine leather chassis with dual layers in the exposed areas, pre-curved legs and flex zones at the knee and waist for a close riding fit. A large ventilation port on the knee opens and can be secured open, with the knee still CE certified when it is. Knee protection is GP-R Lite armour with replaceable Sport knee sliders. Certified to EN17092 AA class and Tech-Air ready for the Tech-Air 10 with its extended hip protection.

Sizing and fit

Euro sizing 46 to 60, eight sizes, in the short leg; 46 is roughly XS, 50 a medium, 52 a large and 58 a 3XL. Everything else matches the standard pants: a high rear waist for jacket overlap, hook-and-loop adjuster and jacket connection zip. If you're on the taller side, the standard-leg Missile v3 Leather Pants are the ones to go for.
