The GP Tech v4 Leather Suit represents the pinnacle of racing technology, engineered to deliver the highest level of active protection for the track. This suit features a sophisticated material blend, utilizing kangaroo leather in high-flex zones—including the arms, hips, and abdomen—paired with race-grade bovine leather. This construction provides the optimum balance of weight savings, high performance, and rider comfort.
Designed for the most demanding conditions, the GP Tech v4 incorporates advanced MATRYX® structural panels on the thigh, abdomen, chest, and back hump. These panels offer parametric performance for superior ventilation and mechanical resistance to tearing and abrasion. To manage heat during intense sessions, the leather is treated with Engineered Cool-iR Tech, which reflects infrared sun rays to regulate internal body temperature effectively.
Safety is paramount with the following technical specifications:
-
Tech-Air® Ready: Specifically designed to accommodate the Tech-Air® 10 Airbag System with extended hip protection (sold separately).
-
Integrated Display Slot: Features a dedicated slot on the left forearm for the Tech-Air® 10 wireless LED display.
-
Advanced Armor: Equipped with internal race-spec GP-R Lite armor for soft, extended coverage and Bio-Flex Race hip armor for optimal impact resistance.
-
GP DFS Protection: Dynamic Friction Shield sliders provide exceptional friction control and impact resistance.
-
Reinforced Strength: Extended Kevlar® stretch paneling around the chest, inner arms, crotch, and back leg enhances durability and movement.
The suit features a highly pre-curved race fit for enhanced performance and includes a MotoGP-derived MATRYX® lower leg construction for lighter weight and superior freedom of movement. For convenience in the paddock, an internal waist hook system keeps the suit in place when the top is removed. Maintenance is simplified with a zippered, detachable short leg comfort liner featuring Polygiene® treatment for long-lasting freshness.
