Care & Safety Maintenance
Due to the extreme safety requirements of the SFI 20 rating, this jacket should only be professionally dry cleaned by a specialist familiar with fire-retardant racing apparel. Never use bleach or fabric softeners, as these will damage the Nomex® fibers and compromise the jacket's thermal protection. Always perform a thorough pre-race inspection of the arm restraint tethers, the heavy-duty zipper, and all seams for signs of fuel saturation or wear.
