FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this a season-accurate replica of Marco Simoncelli's 2008 Gilera MotoGP suit?

Yes. This Marco Simoncelli MotoGP racing suit is built to match the season-accurate livery and color scheme from his 2008 Gilera entry in the MotoGP championship. The suit is available in Red, White, and Yellow to reflect the authentic Gilera team colors. Each suit is hand-stitched and made-to-measure, allowing you to customize the fit to your exact body measurements. While we cannot claim factory-level livery documentation for a 2008 season (historical records are limited), the design is informed by period-accurate MotoGP race-suit construction and the known Gilera color palette from that season.

What do EN 1621-1:2012 and EN 1621-2 certifications mean?

EN 1621-1:2012 is the European standard for impact protectors (armor) used in motorcycle clothing. This suit includes removable dual-density armor at the shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips that meets this standard, providing certified impact absorption at high-stress contact zones. EN 1621-2 is the standard for spinal protectors; this suit includes a removable spine protector that is compatible with EN 1621-2 specifications. Both certifications mean the armor has been tested to absorb and distribute impact energy according to strict European safety protocols. The suit also features external carbon-reinforced metal protectors at the shoulders and knees for additional crash and drag protection beyond the removable armor.

How do I order a made-to-measure Marco Simoncelli suit?

Select Custom Size from the product options Size, complete the checkout process. Submit your body measurements via the measurement form using your order number; suit ships in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. Standard sizes (EU 42–60 for men, EU 38–50 for women) ship in 10–15 working days. Custom sizing ensures a race-grade fit tailored to your body, which is essential for track comfort and safety. The measurement form is straightforward and includes a size chart reference to help you capture accurate chest, waist, sleeve, and inseam measurements.

What leather upgrade options are available?

The Marco Simoncelli suit is standard in 1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather (drum-dyed and milled for durability). You can upgrade to Monaco or kangaroo leather at the time of order. Kangaroo leather is lighter and offers higher tensile strength per unit weight, making it popular among track racers who prioritize weight reduction and abrasion resistance. Monaco leather provides a balance between cowhide and kangaroo in terms of weight, cost, and protection. All three leather options meet the same EN 1621 armor compatibility and hand-stitched construction standards. Choose your preferred leather from the product options before checkout.

Can I add a speed hump and perforation options to my suit?

Yes. The suit offers four speed hump configurations: No Hump, Standard Hump, Ventilated Hump, and Hydro Hump. The speed hump is an aerodynamic back-protection feature that extends from the neck to the mid-back, reducing drag at high speed and providing additional spine protection. Perforation options include No Perforation, Perforated Chest, Perforated Front, and Full Perforated. Perforated sections improve ventilation during warm track conditions by allowing airflow through mesh-backed leather panels. Choose your preferred speed hump and perforation pattern from the product options before checkout. These customizations are included in the 4–6 week made-to-measure lead time.
