Huge new fall hoodie drop from Alpinestars. This years collection features bright bold colors, bold graphics, and core rider style throughout.  We saw these hoodies a few months back at a show and were very excited about the style direction for the Astars line.  Embracing the deep tradition of amazingly high quality pieces with major custom features is what give Astars a distinctive edge and huge base of loyal fans.  Fall 2009 Astars is one of the best hoodie collections I have seen in a long time and we are really stoked to have them.

But wait we still have a few more fresh hoodies from the Alpinestars crew coming and will keep you posted when those hit the site.  Check out our deep selection of Astar hoodies here.  Let us know if your feeling these new hoodies in the comments below.
