Yes, Alpinestars auto racing suits meet FIA homologation standards required for professional motorsport competition. The collection includes suits certified to FIA 8856-2018 and FIA 8856-2000 standards, depending on the specific model and intended use level.

FIA certification ensures the suits provide tested flame resistance, tear strength, and heat protection. Alpinestars uses advanced materials including Nomex and other technical fabrics that exceed minimum safety requirements while maintaining comfort and mobility for extended racing sessions.

Karting and auto racing gear differ primarily in protection level, construction, and certification requirements:

Karting gear prioritizes mobility and ventilation for open-cockpit competition, while auto racing gear provides enhanced thermal protection and impact resistance for closed-cockpit motorsports. Explore our karting collection for CIK-FIA approved options.

Proper care maintains the protective properties and FIA certification of your racing suit. Always follow the specific care label instructions, but general guidelines include washing in cold water with mild detergent, avoiding bleach and fabric softeners, and air drying away from direct heat or sunlight.

Never dry clean or use harsh chemicals, as these can compromise the flame-resistant properties of Nomex and other technical fabrics. Store suits in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Regularly inspect seams, zippers, and fabric for wear, as damage can affect safety certification and performance.

Yes, Alpinestars offers custom suit programs for professional racers and teams requiring personalized designs, sponsor logos, and specific fit requirements. The customization service maintains full FIA homologation while allowing for color combinations, embroidery, and branding placement.

Custom suits typically require longer lead times and minimum order considerations. Visit our custom auto suits collection or contact Alpinestars directly to discuss specific customization options, team programs, and technical specifications for your racing discipline.
