After your order is confirmed, you'll receive an order number.

Once we receive and confirm your measurements, we begin hand-stitching your Valentino Rossi suit. Standard custom orders ship in 4–6 weeks from spec confirmation. If you're ordering a standard size (not Custom Size), your suit ships in 10–15 working days from order confirmation.
CE Level 2 armour is certified to EN 1621-1:2012, the European standard for protective armour in motorcycle gear. Level 2 means the armour has been tested to absorb higher impact energy (at least 50 kJ) compared to Level 1, making it suitable for racing and track-day riding where crash speeds are higher. The Valentino Rossi suit includes removable dual-density armour at the shoulders, elbows, knees, and hips, plus a removable spine/back protector certified to EN 1621-2 for vertebral protection. All armour pieces can be removed for washing or adjusted based on your riding style. This answer applies to the Valentino Rossi 2003 MotoGP suit on this page.
1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather is the race-grade standard for MotoGP replica suits because it balances abrasion resistance with flexibility and weight. At this thickness, cowhide resists tearing and puncturing during a high-speed slide while remaining supple enough for a full range of motion on the bike. The drum-dyed milled finish adds durability and a refined appearance that matches Valentino Rossi's 2003 Repsol Honda livery. If you want even lighter weight and higher abrasion resistance, you can upgrade to kangaroo leather at checkout — kangaroo is approximately 15% lighter than cowhide while meeting the same EN 1621-1:2012 protection spec. Both materials are hand-stitched made-to-order at Leather Collection, with no mass production.
Both configurations offer the same protection and construction quality — the choice depends on your riding context. A 1-piece suit (jacket + pants stitched together) provides a seamless fit with no gap at the waist, maximizing protection during a crash and creating a cleaner race-replica silhouette. A 2-piece suit (jacket and pants separate) offers flexibility: you can wear the jacket with different pants on non-race days, and it's easier to put on and take off in the garage. For serious track-day riding and MotoGP replica authenticity, most buyers choose the 1-piece configuration. Either way, you get the same 1.2–1.3 mm cowhide leather, CE Level 2 armour, and hand-stitched made-to-order construction. Select your preference at checkout.
