FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The base leather is cowhide, 1.2-1.3 mm thick. It is drum-dyed and milled, which gives it an even color and a soft feel. Cowhide is tough and wears well on the track. You can also choose Monaco leather or kangaroo leather in the Leather menu. Kangaroo leather is lighter for its strength. Every choice is hand-stitched the same way.
Choose Custom Size in the size menu and place your order. Then take your body numbers, such as chest, waist, arm and leg length. A friend can help you get them right. Send them with your order number through the measurement form. Your suit is then cut and hand-stitched to fit you. The how to measure guide shows each step.
The suit has removable CE Level 2 armor at the shoulders, elbows, knees and hips. This armor meets EN 1621-1:2012, a European standard for limb armor. A removable back protector is included, and it is EN 1621-2 compatible. On the outside, TPU knee sliders take the wear on the track. You can replace them when they wear down, or add an Extra Knee Slider.
The suit uses blue, red and white, the colors of the Yoshimura Suzuki team in that era. It is inspired by the leathers Wes Cooley wore in AMA racing in 1979 and 1980. The photos show the front and back of the suit. If you want a name, number or small change, write it in the Order Instructions box. For more classic designs, see the
