FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What leather is used in Ben Bostrom AMA Leathers?
The Ben Bostrom AMA Leathers are constructed from 1.2–1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide leather, a race-grade material chosen for its superior abrasion resistance and durability. The drum-dyed and milling process creates a smooth, durable surface that resists tearing and puncturing during slides and high-speed contact. This thickness is the standard for professional AMA and motorcycle racing suits because it balances protection with mobility. The cowhide leather is processed to ensure consistent quality across the entire suit, providing the same level of protection that Ben Bostrom relied on during his 2004 AMA racing season.
How do I order a custom size for the Ben Bostrom suit?
To order a custom size, select Custom Size from the product options Size dropdown, then complete the checkout process. After your order is confirmed, you'll receive an order number. Use that order number to submit your body measurements via the measurement form. Our team will use your measurements to construct your suit to your exact specifications. Custom-made orders ship in 4–6 weeks from the date we confirm your measurements. Standard sizes (EU 42–60 for men, EU 38–50 for women) ship in 10–15 working days from order confirmation.
What armor certifications does the Ben Bostrom suit have?
The Ben Bostrom AMA suit includes removable dual-density armor certified to EN 1621-1:2012 at the shoulders, elbows, and knees. The removable spine protector is compatible with EN 1621-2 standards for back and spine protection. All armor pieces are removable, allowing you to customize the suit's protection level or replace worn armor after extended use. The armor is designed to absorb and distribute impact energy at the highest-stress contact zones during a crash or slide. These certifications ensure the suit meets professional racing standards for impact protection and durability.
Can I upgrade the leather to kangaroo or Monaco?
Yes. The Ben Bostrom suit comes standard in cowhide leather, but you can upgrade to Monaco or kangaroo leather when you select your product options. Kangaroo leather is lighter and offers higher tensile strength per unit weight, making it popular with riders who prioritize mobility and abrasion resistance. Monaco leather is a premium alternative with a refined finish. The upgrade options are available for both standard sizes and custom-made orders. Your choice of leather will be reflected in the final price and construction timeline.
How do I care for cowhide leather race suits?
Cowhide leather race suits should be cleaned regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid soaking the suit or exposing it to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause fading and drying. After cleaning, allow the suit to air-dry naturally at room temperature. Condition the leather periodically with a leather conditioner designed for motorcycle gear to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. Store the suit in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
