Description
The RaceQuip SFI 3.3 Fire Retardant Pants are a critical component of a driver’s safety system, providing an essential secondary thermal barrier for the lower body. These Large-sized base layer bottoms are designed to be worn directly against the skin underneath a racing suit. Constructed from a proprietary knit blend of Aramid and Fire Retardant Cotton (FRC), these pants deliver the high-level heat protection of Nomex® while offering a more supple feel and a cost-effective price point.
Engineered for the grueling conditions of professional racing, the FRC component ensures the fabric is soft to the touch and hypoallergenic, preventing skin irritation during high-heat operation. The fabric is highly efficient at wicking moisture away from the legs and drying rapidly, which helps maintain driver focus and comfort during long sessions. To ensure a seamless fit under a snug driving suit, the seams are flat-sewn and strategically positioned to eliminate pressure points against the seat or safety harness.

Important Safety Information
In motorsports, lower-body protection is vital due to the proximity of the legs to the engine bulkhead and transmission tunnel. The RaceQuip SFI 3.3 base layer pants are intended to work as part of a complete safety ensemble. For maximum protection, ensure the waist is tucked under your base layer shirt and the ankle cuffs are overlapped by your racing socks. While highly fire-retardant, these garments are designed to provide life-saving exit time and are not entirely fireproof.
