Safety Note
While these materials are often colloquially referred to as "fireproof," please note that all auto racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant." This RaceQuip suit is designed to provide critical seconds of thermal protection in the event of a fire. Always refer to the official RaceQuip sizing chart to ensure proper fitment, as a suit that is too tight can reduce thermal protection.
