ORIGINATOR RACING
Product development story
Our company has a surprising circuit activity, including representatives who are participating in the taste of Tsukuba at the Tsukuba Circuit, as well as many other employees participating in races.
Such employees"I want racing suits in the lineup."With that in mind, the development of a new racing suit for the first time in about 15 years has begun.
Background
The development of the new racing suit went beyond simple product improvement; it became a project that embodied the passion of the company's passionate racing fans.
Although past racing suits were excellent in terms of functionality and design, technology has evolved over time and new needs have been required. Therefore, we have been working with anticipation and excitement on what kind of innovations the racing suits that have been revamped for the first time in 15 years would bring.
Design and technology unique to KADOYABy fusing these two elements, we aimed to firmly reflect our company's identity, while also using the latest material technology to improve durability and comfort. The simple yet eye-catching stylish design will not only enhance your presence on the circuit, but will also be able to handle any racing environment.
Process
The development started with carefully listening to the opinions of employees. Based on the feedback from employees who actually use the suit in races, we went through a process of trial and error to improve durability, ease of movement, and safety. We placed particular emphasis on the selection of materials that would maintain comfort even in harsh racing environments, and on a design that fits the body shape.
As development progressed, many employees actually tested the prototypes and provided feedback on their impressions and improvements. Their real opinions based on their experiences became valuable information for the development team and contributed greatly to the final product. As a result, our racing suit was completed not just as a "product," but as a "project" imbued with the passion of our employees who love racing.
Material
While performance and safety are the top priorities for racing suits, the choice of material is also an important factor. Generally, embossed leather is used to reduce costs, but this racing suit is not embossed and uses materials that preserve the natural look of the leather.
This choice isLeather jacket manufacturer KADOYAThis is a key point of emphasis for the product. By not embossing, the original texture and unique feel of the leather stands out. The luxurious feel created by the natural wrinkles and color of the leather and the unique character that increases with use give it a special appeal.
This racing suit not only expresses the pursuit of performance, but also a strong commitment to the leather material, making it sure to be a standout in any racing scene.
Protection
Racing suits are an important item that protects riders on the circuit where falls are a constant threat.
ORIGINATOR RACING is MFJ certified (2022) to comply with Japanese domestic motorcycle racing regulations, and the leather has passed various durability tests, and the protectors attached to each part absorb the impact in the event of a fall and reduce the risk of injury. (When using on the circuit, please wear a separate racing chest protector and spine protector.)
In a real fall, you will not only feel the impact of the fall, but you will also slide on hard asphalt or gravel. The design with fewer protrusions to avoid the impact of a real fall is a safety feature unique to KADOYA.
This new racing suit is the epitome of KADOYA's many years of experience and passion. While pursuing safety and performance on the circuit, this racing suit does not compromise on materials or design, and maximizes the natural beauty of leather. It is not just equipment, but a reliable partner for all riders who love racing. We hope that KADOYA's racing suits will bring new value to your racing life.
