Description

This suit is constructed with an outer layer of durable Nomex and a soft, lightweight Nomex liner featuring unique Chevron pattern box quilting for enhanced comfort and air insulation.

Important Safety Information
Please note that while materials like Nomex are often referred to as "fireproof," all professional auto racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant." This RaceQuip suit is designed to offer critical protection in the event of a fire, but proper fitment is essential. Always consult the RaceQuip sizing chart to ensure the 3XL dimensions align with your measurements, as a suit that is too tight can diminish the effectiveness of the thermal barrier.
