Fit and use

Pre-curved arms and legs follow the seated driving position to reduce bunching and improve mobility during steering, shifting, and braking. The rear mesh stretch panel and inner-thigh stretch panel allow natural movement while the suit remains strapped in the car. These elements work together to give drivers better freedom of movement during steering, shifting, braking, and entering or exiting the vehicle.

The elastic arm cuff system tucks cleanly into racing glove gauntlets for a smoother interface at the wrist without added bulk. The soft outer fabric and breathable interior inserts work together to improve comfort without sacrificing protection during long sessions behind the wheel.
