Alpinestars RSRV Launches Starline
The following is a press release:
 ALPINESTARS RSRV LAUNCHES STARLINE: THE FIRST SNEAKER BORN FROM F1 LEGACY  Los Angeles, CA and Asolo, Italy – Today, Alpinestars RSRV announces the launch of the STARLINE SHOE, a groundbreaking trainer that marks the brand’s bold entry into the sneaker market. Built from the same materials and design principles trusted by Formula 1 drivers, STARLINE blends comfort, authenticity, and high performance: engineered for the streets, with the soul of motorsport. The first drop of the STARLINE sneakers will be extremely limited, releasing in three exclusive colorways: Monarch, Frozen, and Factory.  Since 1963, Alpinestars has set the standard in motorsport footwear. The STARLINE sneaker represents a return to that legacy through a future-forward lens. Drawing on the iconic Alpinestars Supermono driving shoe, the new sneaker features a full suede construction, raised side yoke, and authentic repurposed racing sole—designed for grip, control, and style.  This sleek silhouette also features a lace-lock system and a narrow performance fit that delivers casual comfort with a racing pedigree. Built using the same materials and world-class craftsmanship trusted by F1 drivers, the STARLINE Shoe reverses the logic of performance gear: placing form at the forefront, without compromising on quality or comfort. It’s not just inspired by racing—it’s built from it.  Alpinestars RSRV is a creative engine, where motorsports culture collides with art, design, and fashion. It’s a space to challenge convention and blur boundaries, merging the 60-year legacy of craftsmanship and performance with a bold, form-first perspective. RSRV reimagines racing materials and techniques through the lens of style, creating a dialogue between utility and expression. They celebrate their heritage while inviting new voices into the Alpinestars story through muses, collaborations, partnerships, and cultural influence. It’s a handshake between function and feeling—a middle ground where things move fast, and design leads the way.  Availability The STARLINE sneaker, priced at $450, will be available from May 1st 2025, in limited quantities online at alpinestars.com and at The Webster Miami.  ABOUT RSRV Born from the legacy of Alpinestars and rooted in elite motorsport performance, RSRV (short for “Reserve”) is a new chapter in technical fashion. With limited-edition drops, artistic collaborations, and a racing DNA embedded in every piece. RSRV is built for those who move fast and think faster. STARLINE SHOE Since 1963, Alpinestars has produced cutting-edge footwear and it was only inevitable that RSRV revisited this celebrated chapter in Alpinestars’ history. Part of the RSRV purpose is to inform the future, by reaching deep into the past and the STARLINE SHOE is a sleek, suede, race-inspired manifestation of that purpose. The suede construction and raised side yoke are a nod to early Alpinestars auto shoes. At the same time, the lace-lock feature and silhouette are very much a reference to the modern footwear that Alpinestars F1 drivers wear on tracks across the world today. The narrow fit and repurposed auto racing sole are purpose-built for racing, but also deliver an incredible amount of casual comfort. The STARLINE SHOE is available in three colorways with unique color-blocking that alludes to the shoe’s racing heritage.
