FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What leather is used in the Ralf Waldmann Aprilia MotoGP racing suit?
The suit is crafted from 1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather with a drum-dyed milled finish, the same thickness and process used in authentic race-suit construction. Cowhide leather race-grade construction delivers exceptional abrasion resistance and durability during high-speed track contact and slides. The drum-dyed milled finish provides the authentic aesthetics of 1999 MotoGP race leathers while maintaining the tensile strength required for crash protection. If you prefer a lighter-weight alternative, you can upgrade to kangaroo leather during checkout—kangaroo offers superior strength-to-weight ratio at the cost of increased price.
How do I order a made-to-measure Ralf Waldmann suit?
Select Custom Size from the product options Size, 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. Once we receive your measurements and confirm the specification, your suit enters production.

What CE protection does the Aprilia 1999 racing suit include?
The suit features EN 1621-1:2012 certified dual-density armor at the shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips—the impact zones most vulnerable during a race-track slide. The armor is removable, so you can customize the protection level or replace it after impact. An EN 1621-2 compatible removable spine protector adds back protection for extended track sessions. Replaceable TPU knee sliders are included; you can swap them out as they wear or upgrade to an extra pair for multi-day racing events. All protection components meet current MotoGP and WSBK safety standards.
Is the Ralf Waldmann Aprilia suit authentic to the 1999 MotoGP season?
Yes. The suit replicates the red and white Aprilia MotoGP livery worn by Ralf Waldmann during the 1999 season. The 1999 season is a documented historical archive, so the livery accuracy has been verified against race footage and archival sources. The construction details—pre-curved sleeves, accordion stretch panels, YKK semi-auto-lock zippers, and leather overlay reinforcement at impact zones—match the race-suit specifications of that era. If you're a serious MotoGP collector or track-day enthusiast, this replica delivers the authenticity and protection you expect from a championship-era race suit.
What customization options are available for the Aprilia MotoGP racing suit?
You can customize the suit extensively. Speed hump options include No Hump, Standard Hump, Ventilated Hump, or Hydro Hump for varying levels of neck and spine protection. Perforation patterns range from No Perforation (maximum abrasion resistance) to Full Perforated (maximum summer ventilation). Lining variants include standard polyester mesh, removable lining, or thermal removable lining for seasonal riding. You can add an extra knee slider for backup protection. Leather upgrade options allow you to switch from cowhide to Monaco leather or premium kangaroo leather. Choose between one-piece and two-piece suit configuration. All customizations are made-to-order, so you can tailor the suit to your exact riding style and climate.
