FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I order a made-to-measure Tom Sykes WSBK racing suit?

Made-to-measure custom sizing is straightforward. Select "Custom Size" from the product options Size dropdown, then complete the checkout process as normal. After your order is confirmed, you'll receive an order number. Use that number to access the measurement form and submit your body measurements — chest, waist, inseam, sleeve length, and any custom fit notes. Our team will confirm receipt of your measurements, and your suit will ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. Standard sizes (EU 42–60 / US 32–50) ship in 10–15 working days without the custom measurement step.

What material is the Tom Sykes Kawasaki WSBK 2018 suit made from?

The Tom Sykes WSBK racing suit is constructed from 1.2–1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide leather — a race-grade material chosen for its tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and durability at track speeds. The drum-dyed and milled finish process creates a consistent color depth and supple feel while maintaining the protective properties required for professional motorcycle racing. Cowhide is the default specification; you can also upgrade to Monaco or Kangaroo leather if you prefer lighter weight or higher tensile strength per unit. All leather options are hand-stitched made-to-order and available in the same Tom Sykes 2018 Kawasaki Green and Black livery.

What CE protection certifications does the suit have?

The Tom Sykes Kawasaki WSBK 2018 suit meets EN 1621-1:2012 certification for impact armor at the shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips. The removable dual-density armor is designed to absorb and distribute impact energy at the highest-stress contact zones during a crash. The suit also includes a removable spine/back protector that is EN 1621-2 compatible, providing vertebral protection along the entire spine. Additionally, external carbon-reinforced metal protectors are stitched at the shoulders and knees, and replaceable TPU knee sliders are included to protect the suit during sliding. All armor pieces are removable, allowing you to upgrade to higher-density protection or customize your protection setup based on your track-day needs.

Is the Kawasaki Green color authentic to the 2018 WSBK season?

Yes — the Tom Sykes WSBK 2018 suit features the documented Kawasaki Green and Black livery from Tom Sykes' professional 2018 WSBK season racing suit. The Kawasaki Green is paired with Black panels and accents to match the iconic Kawasaki Racing Team colorway from that championship year. This is a season-accurate replica, not a generic race suit. If you're a WSBK collector or Tom Sykes fan, the livery authenticity and Kawasaki brand identity are core to the product design. You can verify the color match against official 2018 WSBK team imagery and product photos on this page.

Can I add a removable thermal lining or order matching gloves and boots?

Absolutely. The suit offers several add-on options to customize your track setup. You can add a removable thermal lining to extend the suit's usability into cooler months — simply swap it in or remove it entirely for ventilation during summer track days. Additional replaceable TPU knee sliders are also available as an add-on for extended track sessions or backup protection. Matching Tom Sykes Kawasaki gloves and boots in the same 2018 livery are available separately, with their own size charts (Gloves XS–3XL; Boots EU 36–46 / US 4.5–12). Ordering the full gear set — suit, gloves, and boots — creates a coordinated, season-authentic racing package. All items are made-to-order and ship within the same 4–6 week custom timeline.
