The suit features the iconic Black and Red colorway paired with 1.2–1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide leather, matching the race-grade material used in professional MotoGP suits. Hand-stitched construction with dual and triple safety seams at critical zones mirrors the durability standards of Marco Simoncelli's original suit.

Our made-to-measure service ensures your Marco Simoncelli racing suit fits your body like it was built for you. Select Custom Size from the product options Size dropdown, then complete the checkout process. Once your order is confirmed, you'll receive your order number. Use that number to access the measurement form and submit your precise body measurements (chest, waist, sleeve length, inseam, shoulder width, and other key points). Our tailors use your measurements to construct your suit from scratch, ensuring a perfect race-fit that matches your unique proportions. This custom approach takes 4–6 weeks from the time we receive your spec confirmation, but the result is a suit that fits like it was made in a MotoGP paddock just for you.
The Marco Simoncelli Aprilia MotoGP racing suit meets stringent European protection standards. It includes EN 1621-1:2012 certified removable dual-density armour at the shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips—these pockets absorb and distribute impact energy at the highest-stress zones. The suit is also compatible with an EN 1621-2 removable spine protector that safeguards your backbone and vertebrae during a crash. Additionally, external carbon-reinforced metal protectors at the shoulders and knees provide rigid impact absorption, while replaceable TPU knee sliders and TPU elbow sliders protect against abrasion during a slide. The 1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather shell itself resists tearing and puncturing because of its high tensile strength. Hand-stitched seams with dual and triple stitching at critical zones maximize structural integrity.
Yes. The Marco Simoncelli suit comes standard with 1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather, but you can upgrade to Monaco leather or kangaroo leather at checkout. Kangaroo leather is lighter and offers greater abrasion resistance per unit weight, making it popular for track racers who want maximum protection with minimal bulk. You can also add a removable thermal lining for cold-weather riding, or select extra knee sliders if you plan frequent track use. These options are available during the checkout process and will be reflected in your final suit build. If you're ordering made-to-measure, all customization options are included in your spec submission to the tailors. This answer applies to the Marco Simoncelli 2004 MotoGP suit on this page.
A made-to-measure Marco Simoncelli MotoGP racing suit ships in 4–6 weeks from the moment our tailors receive and confirm your body measurements. This timeline allows our craftspeople to hand-stitch your suit to your exact specifications, ensuring every seam, panel, and armour pocket is positioned for your unique fit. Standard sizes (no custom measurements needed) ship faster: 10–15 working days from order confirmation. Once your suit ships, it travels to 50+ countries worldwide. We recommend ordering your made-to-measure suit well in advance of any planned track days or racing events to allow adequate time for construction and delivery.
