Description
The RaceQuip 130 series Chevron-1 single-layer SFI-1 racecar driver's fire suit offers a sophisticated European design combined with high-level entry protection. This suit is manufactured from Pyrovatex FRC, a fire-retardant cotton-based material that provides the essential flame resistance required for the track while maintaining the soft, breathable feel of natural cotton. The specialized treatment process creates a molecular bond with the fibers, ensuring that the suit wicks moisture away from the skin and retains its protective properties throughout its useful life.
Constructed for durability, the Chevron-1 is assembled using heavy-duty, multi-needle, over-lock safety stitch machines to ensure the seams remain secure under the stresses of racing. The aesthetic is defined by unique Chevron pattern box quilting and a high-quality, heavy-duty Nomex-backed brass zipper featuring a double-overlap closure for maximum safety.

Important Safety Information
While materials like Pyrovatex are often referred to as "fireproof," all professional auto racing safety gear is technically "fire retardant." This RaceQuip suit is designed to provide critical thermal protection in the event of an incident. To ensure your safety, please verify your measurements against the RaceQuip size chart, as a proper Large fitment is vital for the suit to perform effectively as a thermal barrier.
