Style is really important to me; you always want to look good off the track but on the track too, and I’m super stoked to be in the gear. Riding for Alpinestars means everything to me, I’ve worn Alpinestars for a very long time, since I was around 10 years old. I’ve always loved the quality of the boots and now of the gear and the helmet. For me safety is a big part of racing, I feel super safe in it, and the gear keeps on looking better and better so I’m excited about the 2023 gear." – Chase Sexton
