Protection, practicality and support combine beautifully in the Paragon Bib Shorts from Alpinestars. The main fabric is body mapped to be fully adaptable to your own shape thanks to stretchy Lycra and elasticated straps. Further comfort is added thanks to minimal seaming throughout to prevent chafing, while impact absorption foam padding sits on the hips and is fully removable, depending on your needs for each ride. The Stealth® chamois offers higher levels of breathability, too.
As well as that high level of comfort, longer rides are covered thanks to great storage and hydration options. The rear of the Paragon features a triple back lumbar pocket system, which keeps your essentials within easy reach at all times, and is made with a floating construction which works perfectly with a baggy short. A mesh compartment accommodates hydration packs, soft elastic on the hem keeps it all in place, and reflective logos round things out to keep you safe and seen at all times.
Alpinestars is a technical safety gear manufacturer for motorcycle and auto racing (MotoGP, Motocross, Formula One and NASCAR), as well as extreme sports. The company takes its name from the English translation of the Italian word "stelle alpine" which, when translated into English, literally means "Alpine stars".
They have also developed a fashion clothing division for men's and women's sportswear lifestyle apparel, based upon Alpinestars' heritage in motorsports.
Founded in 1963 by Sante Mazzarolo in Asolo, Italy, the company started out making hiking and ski boots, but quickly focused on making boots primarily for motocross racing. In the 1990s, the company branched out into manufacturing all types of protective and technical gear ranging from gloves and jackets to full leather suits for motorcycling. They also sold Alpinestars branded mountain bikes until 1996. Today they have offices in Los Angeles and Tokyo while the original headquarters and main research & development labs remain in Northern Italy.
The company is today headed by Sante's son, Gabriele Mazzarolo. Alpinestars is now a global brand, developing technical racing products for MotoGP and World Superbike with leather suits, boots, gloves and protection worn by MotoGP World Champions Nicky Hayden and Casey Stoner. In auto racing, flame and heat retardant Nomex suits, footwear, gloves and underwear have been developed in Formula One and NASCAR with recent Champions Fernando Alonso and Jimmie Johnson.
Alpinestars has established a fashion division with design centers in California and Italy.
