The first thing we noticed about the Alpinestars shorts was the fit – it’s incredibly good. Move your legs and the body doesn’t shift at all. This is down to the stretch Y insert and back yoke, which allow the legs to move independently without pulling at the waist.
The shaping is very good indeed and, together with the lightweight feel with extra venting, makes these a great summer choice.We’ll be underpinning them with something warmer to keep them going into winter though, because we like them so much. Ideally we’d prefer a higher spec liner short (though we appreciate it’d add to the cost) because it’s not quite as light as the shell.At least the pad is plush where it should be. Although they’re not cheap, this is a practical and comfortable liner/outer pairing.
