Frequently asked questions Hide FAQs
What are Sim Tech Layers and what are they used for?
Sim Tech Layers are technical base and mid-layer garments designed specifically for sim racing and motorsport applications. These layers provide moisture management, temperature regulation, and comfort during extended racing sessions. They're engineered with performance fabrics that work beneath racing suits or can be worn standalone during simulator racing, offering the same technical benefits found in professional motorsport underlayers.
What materials are used in the Sim Tech Layers collection?
The Sim Tech Layers collection utilizes advanced technical fabrics designed for motorsport performance. These materials typically include moisture-wicking synthetics, breathable mesh panels, and seamless construction zones to prevent chafing during long sessions. The fabrics are engineered to manage perspiration, regulate body temperature, and provide compression support similar to layers used in professional racing environments across MotoGP, Formula 1, and endurance racing.
Can Sim Tech Layers be worn under racing suits?
Yes, Sim Tech Layers are specifically designed to be worn under racing suits for both real-world motorsport and sim racing applications. Their low-profile, seamless construction ensures they layer smoothly beneath auto racing suits, karting suits, and other motorsport gear without adding bulk or creating pressure points. Many professional racers use technical layers like these to enhance comfort and performance during competition.

How do I care for and wash Sim Tech Layers?
Sim Tech Layers should be machine washed in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the technical fabric properties. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, or high heat drying, as these can damage the moisture-wicking and thermal regulation capabilities of the materials. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat is recommended. Following proper care instructions will maintain the performance characteristics and extend the lifespan of these technical garments.
Are Sim Tech Layers suitable for both sim racing and track use?
Yes, the Sim Tech Layers collection is versatile enough for both sim racing and actual track use. For sim racing, they provide comfort and temperature management during long virtual racing sessions. For track use, they function as proper motorsport underlayers beneath racing suits, offering the same moisture management and thermal regulation benefits used by professional drivers. This dual-purpose design makes them ideal for racers who participate in both virtual and real-world motorsport activities.
