Description
The Simpson Drag 5G Racing Pants are engineered for competitive drivers who require high-level thermal protection without the restrictive bulk of traditional multi-layer gear.

Care & Safety Maintenance
To maintain the SFI 15 protective rating, it is highly recommended to have these pants professionally dry cleaned by a specialist familiar with fire-retardant racing apparel. Never use bleach or fabric softeners, as these chemicals can permanently damage the Nomex® fibers and compromise the thermal barrier. Perform a thorough visual inspection before every event to check for fuel saturation, fraying, or seam wear to ensure your gear is ready for the track.
