FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The suit is built from 1.2-1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide leather, a race-grade material chosen for its abrasion resistance and tensile strength during high-speed track sessions. The drum-dyed and milling process creates a uniform finish that resists tearing and puncturing when sliding. Luis Salom's 2012 Kalex suit reflects the same leather specification used in professional MotoGP race suits. The cowhide is paired with accordion stretch panels at the lower back and knees, and Cordura reinforcement at the sleeves and crotch, ensuring both protection and mobility. If you prefer a lighter, more flexible option, a kangaroo leather upgrade is available at checkout. This answer applies to the Luis Salom 2012 MotoGP suit on this page.
