Racing clothes

Are you a real speed devil? Then it is important to wear enough protection on your motorcycle when racing at high-speed on the track. All track equipment is therefore tested with high safety standards. Are you curious what kind of racing equipment there is? Then read on!

Racing equipment

Racing gear is equipment that is designed and manufactured specifically for high-speed riding on the race track as well as on the street. This ranges from racing jackets, racing trousers, racing suits, racing gloves and racing shoes.

Leather is often used in racing gear. This is because it offers the most protection in the event of a crash on tarmac.

In short, racing clothing allows you to get the most out of your ride.

Racing suits

Race suits are ideal for track use, depending on your personal preferences of course. There are different types, such as one-piece and two-piece suits. One-piece suits have the jacket and trousers attached to each other, while two-piece suits do not. On the track, it is important to wear as much protection as possible. That is why leather suits are recommended. Leather is more durable than textile and offers more safety at high speeds.

To add some more comfort and versatility to your racing outfit, you can also go for a separate jacket and trousers. This is easier to combine with different types of clothing and thus, this choice is more likely to be made for sporty street riding. Take a look at our range of racing jackets and racing trousers.

Race clothing often also has extra protection like protectors and sliders. Protectors offer more protection on the back, chest, shoulder, elbow, hip or knee. There are also sliders such as knee sliders and elbow sliders. These are hardened caps that wear out when crashing at high-speed. In many cases they are also removable, so that they can be replaced when they are worn out. Then there are several types of sliders. There are metal sliders which offer more protection than plastic sliders. Besides the extra protection a racing suit or jacket often has a hump. This is mainly to improve aerodynamics during the ride.

Racing gloves

To protect your hands during riding there are racing gloves. Here too, leather gloves are highly recommended. These gloves are often equipped with hard-shell knuckle guards, a Kevlar lining, palm sliders and superfabric panels. Together, this provides optimal protection in the event of a high-speed crash. Often, these gloves are also longer than normal gloves so that the aerodynamics are better.

Racing boots

There is also special racing equipment for the feet. These boots are often extra sturdy so injuries are less likely to occur. There can be several options on the racing boots such as, interchangeable toe guides, heel and ankle cups or shin protection. Often, these boots have buckle closures so that they stay in place and cannot easily come off. Racing boots are essential for optimal performance.
