Description
The RaceQuip 9160 series Chevron-5 multi-layer SFI-5 racecar driver's fire suit is engineered to provide maximum thermal protection without compromising on mobility or style. This professional-grade suit is constructed with an outer layer of durable Nomex and a soft, lightweight Nomex liner. The signature Chevron pattern box quilting creates air pockets that significantly enhance the garment's heat-retardant performance.
Designed with a sleek, modern Euro aesthetic, the suit features black trim Euro epaulets, a two-piece adjustable belt, and black side panels. To ensure the driver remains agile behind the wheel, RaceQuip integrated knit stretch panels into the torso and 180° floating arm gussets for an unrestricted range of motion. A stretch panel at the back waistline keeps the suit cinched for a custom-fitted appearance while in the driving position.

Important Safety Information
While materials like Nomex are often colloquially referred to as "fireproof," all professional auto racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant." This RaceQuip suit is designed to provide critical seconds of thermal protection during a fire incident. To ensure maximum safety, please verify your measurements against the official RaceQuip size chart, as a proper Medium Tall fitment is essential for the multi-layer thermal barrier to perform effectively.
