Another perfectly clipped apex of form and function, the BRACED HOODIE further investigates the aesthetics of recovery and resilience. Borrowing an elastic waist belt from one of Alpinestars’ protective Bionic MX jackets, this semi-cropped, heavyweight hooded sweatshirt is both subdued and distinct. The wide belt is integrated into the waist of the hoodie and the adjustable velcro closure allows for transformation from boxier to a more fitted fit. The belt also references the slings, braces, and other injury-related medical paraphernalia that an athlete might rely on for recovery.
Foam-reinforced elbows and shoulders are a nod to Alpinestars’ traditional motorcycle jacket construction and the blank, padded leather patches add commentary on an athlete's persistent pursuit of sponsorship and support. Volume is elevated throughout the hoodie, using darts and foam reinforcement for a more structured look.
