OMP FIRST-S Racing Driver Suit
The OMP FIRST-S Racing Driver Suit is a revised entry-level FIA-homologated racing suit designed for drivers who want dependable protection, comfort, and classic OMP styling at an approachable price point. Updated with lightweight fabrics and improved construction, the FIRST-S delivers the safety and mobility needed for track days, club racing, HPDE, and competitive motorsport.
Certified to the FIA 8856-2018 homologation standard, the OMP FIRST-S uses a two-layer construction with a durable fire-retardant exterior and a soft knitted inner layer for improved comfort during long sessions in the car. Ultra-flat internal seams help reduce rubbing, while the elastic knitted lower-back insert improves flexibility and driver comfort in a seated driving position.
Lightweight Two-Layer FIA Protection
The OMP FIRST-S Racing Suit is built around a lightweight and breathable two-layer design. At 385 g/m², this updated version is lighter than previous FIRST-S models while still maintaining the durability and protective performance drivers expect from OMP.
Improved Comfort and Mobility
Full-floating arms with elastic bellows allow greater freedom of movement behind the wheel, helping reduce resistance while steering, shifting, and entering or exiting the car. The modern fishbone quilting pattern is designed to better match the driver's ergonomics in a seated racing position, giving the suit a clean professional look while improving overall comfort.
