Description
The RaceQuip Youth Single-Layer SFI-1 Racing Jacket provides essential thermal protection for junior racers who require the flexibility of a separate jacket and pant safety system. This Kids Large jacket is manufactured from high-quality Pyrovatex® FRC (Fire Retardant Cotton), offering a professional-grade balance of flame protection, durability, and comfort. While often referred to as "fireproof," this jacket uses advanced fire-retardant technology to provide a critical safety barrier in high-heat environments.
Pyrovatex® is an ideal choice for youth racing because it retains the natural softness and breathability of cotton. This allows the jacket to effectively wick moisture away from the skin, ensuring the driver stays cool and comfortable during intense track sessions. The molecular bond created during the Pyrovatex® treatment process ensures that the jacket retains its protective properties throughout its useful life, provided it is cared for correctly.

Safety & Maintenance Information
The RaceQuip Youth SFI-1 jacket is a critical component of a junior racer's safety gear. For maximum protection, this jacket must be worn in conjunction with SFI-rated racing pants, gloves, and a head sock to ensure no skin is exposed. To preserve the fire-retardant integrity of the Pyrovatex® fabric, avoid using bleach or harsh industrial detergents; a mild detergent and regular machine washing are recommended. Always inspect the jacket for signs of wear, tears, or fuel contamination before each race event. Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and the overlap is secured before entering the vehicle.
