If you are involved in motorsport, we highly recommend K1 RaceGear Nomex underwear base layers that can provide invaluable protection in critical times of fire danger and help you escape potential injury.
The K1 Precision line of Nomex Tech Layers combines the three most important features drivers look for in protective underwear. Cost, comfort and added protection. This durable, soft knit underwear is crafted with flat, interlock stitching for comfort and performs excellent under any driving suit with it’s moisture wicking properties.
The K1 FLEX Tech Layers are constructed of the highest quality blend of 100% Nomex and natural viscose fibers. This innovative material construction offers not only superior flame resistance and protection against heat transfer, but is the ultimate choice for soft, lightweight comfortable underwear. Designed and tested specifically by top pros in Rally Cross, WEC and other endurance challenge series, the K1 FLEX Tech Layers are quickly becoming the top choice of racing underwear throughout all forms of racing.
The K1 RaceGear Nomex balaclava is a great head sock for karters and auto racing enthusiasts. Constructed from fire-resistant single layer Nomex for enhanced breathability and comfort, and featuring a reverse stitched design for a closer and less obtrusive fit, our balaclava head sock is a great accessory for individuals who regularly compete with a helmet. Needless to say, if you race karts or are involved in auto racing, we highly recommend our Nomex balaclava head sock - as karters ourselves, we tend to think of balaclavas as one of those "must-have" items!
They may seem like normal socks, but the fact of the matter is that they are anything but. Our K1 Nomex fire socks have been designed specifically to withstand multiple hundreds of degrees of heat for upwards of a minute or more to provide the wearer with maximum protection in the event of a fire. Nobody thinks that his or her car is going to catch on fire in the event of an accident; after all, that's what fuel cells and fire extinguishers are there to prevent. But the simple fact is that racecars routinely erupt into flames, on tracks throughout the world don't be caught in yours unprepared.
