Description
The RaceQuip Youth Single-Layer SFI-1 Racing Jacket offers essential thermal protection for junior racers who want a combination of professional safety and standout style. This Kids Large jacket is manufactured from high-quality Pyrovatex® FRC (Fire Retardant Cotton), providing an excellent balance of flame protection, durability, and value. While often called "fireproof," this jacket is engineered with advanced fire-retardant technology to provide a critical safety barrier during track emergencies.
Pyrovatex® is an ideal choice for youth motorsports because it maintains the natural softness and breathability of cotton. This allows the jacket to effectively wick moisture away from the skin, ensuring the racer stays cool and comfortable during intense competition. 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 foundational piece of safety gear for junior racers. 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 the driver enters the vehicle.
