Key Features:

• Complete protection for ribs, front, and back combined with maximum comfort thanks to internal padding and exclusive auto-adjustable fitting system
• Adjustable shoulder and lateral straps with Velcro, shaped front shield for optimal comfort and enhanced protection
• Available in Black/Fluo Yellow (color code 178)
• Size Small from a range of seven sizes: four standard-fit (S-M-L-XL) and three wide-fit options
• Compatible with optional spare inner padding kit (part number KK049/PAD) for customized fit

This body protection complies fully with the latest FIA 8870-2018 regulations and is now mandated for FIA sanctioned karting events. The KS-1 PRO represents the result of extensive collaboration between OMP Racing and the FIA to develop a safer, more protective solution for kart racers at all levels.
