OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves | FIA Racing Gloves
$299.00
OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves
The OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves are professional-level racing gloves developed for drivers who demand precise steering feedback, dependable grip, and lasting comfort during demanding competition. Their advanced pre-curved shape supports a natural driving position, helping reduce material bunching and unnecessary hand fatigue during extended sessions.
Lightweight honeycomb fabric promotes airflow throughout the glove, while strategically positioned silicone grip zones improve steering control without sacrificing sensitivity. External finger seams reduce pressure points, and the internally stitched thumb provides refined feel when operating steering-wheel buttons, rotary controls, and paddle shifters.
Ergonomic Construction for Natural Steering Control
The ONE EVO FX is shaped around the position a driver’s hands naturally assume on the steering wheel. Its pre-curved fingers and palm reduce resistance when closing the hand, allowing the driver to maintain a secure grip with less effort.
This ergonomic construction minimizes excess material across the palm and fingertips, helping preserve tactile feedback while reducing fatigue during long races, endurance stints, and repeated high-load steering inputs.
Directional Silicone Grip Zones
Strategically arranged silicone sections provide traction where the glove makes the most contact with the steering wheel. The directional grip pattern helps resist unwanted hand movement during cornering, braking, and rapid steering corrections.
Rather than covering the entire palm with a heavy reinforcement layer, the focused silicone layout maintains a direct connection with the wheel and preserves the sensitivity needed for precise vehicle control.
External Finger Seams for Reduced Pressure
External seams move potentially irritating stitching away from the inside of the fingers. This construction reduces pressure points and improves comfort during extended periods behind the wheel.
The smoother internal finger area also helps the glove conform more closely to the hand, limiting distractions caused by bulky seams or excess material.
Internally Stitched Thumb for Enhanced Feedback
The thumb uses an internal seam configuration to improve sensitivity and control around modern steering-wheel equipment. This construction gives the driver a more precise feel when using push buttons, switches, rotary controls, and paddle-shift systems.
Combining external finger seams with an internally stitched thumb allows OMP to optimize different areas of the glove for their specific driving functions.
Breathable Honeycomb Fabric
Lightweight honeycomb fabric across the outer glove encourages airflow and helps manage heat inside the cockpit. The breathable construction is especially beneficial during endurance competition, warm-weather events, and long sessions where moisture buildup can affect comfort.
The flexible material follows the hand through repeated steering movements without creating unnecessary stiffness or bulk.
Slanted Elastic Cuff
An elasticated cuff keeps the ONE EVO FX securely positioned throughout the session. Its slanted wrist opening follows the natural angle of the forearm, making the glove easier to put on while creating a comfortable overlap with compatible racing-suit sleeves.
The streamlined cuff eliminates the need for a bulky external adjustment strap and maintains a clean, competition-focused fit.
FIA 8856-2018 Homologated Protection
The OMP ONE EVO FX Gloves are homologated to the FIA 8856-2018 standard for fire-resistant driver clothing. This certification makes them suitable for many professional, amateur, and club-level motorsport events requiring current FIA-approved racing gloves.
Drivers should confirm the specific safety-equipment requirements of their racing series or sanctioning organization before competition.

Alpinestars Tech-1 K v2 Karting Shoes
$129.66
$169.95
Alpinestars Tech-1 K v2 Karting Shoes
The Alpinestars Tech-1 K v2 Karting Shoes are engineered for drivers who want durable protection, a secure anatomical fit, and precise feedback through the brake and throttle pedals. Developed specifically for the demands of kart racing, the Tech-1 K v2 combines a supportive nubuck microfiber upper with lightweight ventilation and an ultra-thin Formula 1-inspired outsole.
An improved anatomical profile creates a flatter forefoot and a more natural fit around the foot. This streamlined design reduces unnecessary bulk around closely spaced kart pedals while helping the driver maintain accurate control during braking, acceleration, and rapid pedal transitions.
The dual asymmetric closure system combines aramidic speed lacing with a low-profile hook-and-loop strap. This arrangement distributes pressure more evenly across the foot and allows the fit to be adjusted for dependable support throughout practice, qualifying, and racing.
Durable Nubuck Microfiber Upper
The Tech-1 K v2 uses an advanced hybrid upper constructed from durable nubuck and microfiber materials. The supportive structure is designed to withstand repeated karting use while remaining lightweight and flexible.
Strategically positioned perforated zones improve airflow through the shoe, helping reduce heat buildup during long indoor sessions and warm outdoor race weekends.
Enhanced Anatomical Fit
The revised anatomical design improves the shape of the forefoot and allows the shoe to sit more naturally around the driver’s foot. A flatter toe area helps reduce excess material and improves contact with closely positioned pedals.
This close-fitting profile supports accurate pedal movement without creating unnecessary pressure around the toes or midfoot.
Dual Asymmetric Closure System
The asymmetric closure follows the natural shape of the foot rather than applying pressure directly down the center. Aramidic speed laces run through durable para-aramidic eyelets to provide a secure and personalized fit.
An ultra-thin hook-and-loop ankle strap adds support while maintaining a low profile inside the kart.
Ergonomic Heel Counter
Alpinestars’ polypropylene foot counter supports the heel and helps maintain stability during aggressive braking. The ergonomic construction limits unwanted rear-foot movement while allowing the ankle to move naturally.
External Toe Reinforcement
Reinforcement on both sides of the toe improves abrasion resistance and protection in areas commonly exposed to pedals, chassis components, and repeated contact inside the kart.
External Rear Heel Protection
A protective rubber section at the rear of the heel helps resist abrasion and impact while entering the kart, operating the pedals, and walking through the paddock.
Ultra-Thin Formula 1 Specification Sole
The Tech-1 K v2 features an ultra-thin outsole developed using Alpinestars Formula 1 footwear technology. Its exclusive rubber compound is strategically ribbed to provide grip and sensitivity through the pedals.
The rounded heel supports smooth movement between the brake and throttle, while the specialized tread provides dependable grip in both wet and dry conditions.
Comfortable Low-Cut Collar
The soft microfiber collar is cut lower around the rear of the ankle to reduce pressure against the Achilles area. This construction improves comfort and range of motion during repeated pedal operation.
Nitrile Rubber Collar Padding
Lightweight nitrile rubber padding provides support around the ankle without adding excessive bulk. The material helps maintain comfort during long karting sessions while preserving the shoe’s streamlined profile.
Perforated Padded Tongue
The soft padded tongue uses perforations to improve ventilation and comfort across the top of the foot. Its flexible construction works with the asymmetric closure to create an even, secure fit.

Ferodo DS3.12 Brake Compound Details
The DS3.12 is the latest evolution in Ferodo's incredible DS line. Sports cars today have more of everything: more horsepower, more sophisticated aero, higher curb weights, and stickier tires. These attributes place serious demands on a vehicle's brake system. The Ferodo DS3.12 is the modern pad compound designed from the start to explicitly handle those demands.
The Ferodo DS3.12 is a top-tier endurance racing brake pad compound built for maximum fade resistance, high friction, and extremely consistent performance at elevated temperatures. If you need a Ferodo track brake pad for aggressive braking, long sessions, and serious motorsport use, DS3.12 is one of the strongest options in the lineup.
The DS3.12 compound provides strong initial bite, a highly stable torque curve, and dependable braking performance in demanding track conditions. It is ideal for experienced drivers, endurance racing, and high-grip applications where repeatable stopping power matters most.
Maximum fade resistance in the Ferodo range
High friction and strong initial bite
Very consistent braking response at track temperatures
Excellent durability in endurance racing use
Best for: advanced track-day drivers and racers who want a high-performance race brake pad with elite heat capacity and confidence-inspiring consistency.
Note: DS3.12 is a full race compound and may produce increased dust, disc wear, and reduced cold performance compared with street-oriented pads.
Ferodo DS1.11 Brake Compound Details
The DS1.11 has a lower mu than the DS3.12 at all temperatures and can be characterized as a moderate mu pad vs. other endurance racing compounds. They require more pedal force than the DS3.12, and they have a slightly declining torque curve as temperatures rise. As they get hotter and you dive deeper into a turn, you may feel like you need to push a little harder on the brake pedal to elicit the same response (which is a feel many drivers actually prefer). Some drivers feel that the DS1.11 is more controllable on street tires than DS3.12 since ABS cannot be activated as easily. It will last a fairly long time vs. many other pad compounds on the market but does not last quite as long as the DS3.12. They are very gentle on discs at track temperatures when a proper pad transfer layer is maintained. The DS1.11 also has an outstanding max temp and fade resistance, just not quite as high as 3.12. We're not aware of anyone who has faded them, and most people differentiate between the DS1.11 and DS3.12 based on feel.
The Ferodo DS1.11 is a proven endurance racing brake pad compound designed for drivers who need outstanding fade resistance, long pad life, and precise control under repeated high-temperature braking. For track cars and serious HPDE builds, DS1.11 is a trusted Ferodo race brake pad with a strong reputation for consistency.
This DS1.11 features stable braking performance, excellent modulation, and durability in demanding track conditions. Compared with more street-focused compounds, DS1.11 is better suited to aggressive lapping, endurance sessions, and drivers who value a progressive pedal feel.
Exceptional fade resistance for track use
Long wear characteristics in endurance-style driving
Progressive, controllable pedal feel
Excellent choice for HPDE and racing applications
Best for: drivers looking for a track brake pad with durability, modulation, and high-temperature stability for repeated hard use.
Note: DS1.11 is a race compound and is not ideal for customers seeking low noise, low dust, or refined street manners.
Ferodo DSUNO Brake Compound Details
For our customers who enjoy the performance of the DS1.11, but just want a little more bite, we recommend the DSUNO. It doesn't wear quite as long as the DS1.11, but it does offer a higher overall mu once it reaches track temperatures.
Ferodo DS2500 Compound Details
Although we always recommend using a dedicated race pad for the track, the DS2500 is one of the best hybrid street/track pads on the market. It features the moderately high bite and solid fade resistance of a track pad, with the relatively low dust and noise levels of a street pad. When used as a street pad, it can produce some squeal on certain vehicle platforms. If you drive aggressively on the street, do some canyon runs, autocross, and maybe some light track duty on street tires, the DS2500 is tough to beat.
The Ferodo DS2500 is one of the most popular performance brake pad compounds for drivers who want strong braking on the street and dependable performance at the track. If you are looking for a street and track brake pad with excellent cold bite, low noise, and impressive fade resistance, the DS2500 is a proven choice.
The DS2500 delivers confident pedal feel, consistent stopping power, and better high-temperature performance than typical street pads. It is an excellent option for spirited driving, autocross, HPDE, and dual-purpose performance cars.
Strong cold bite for street use
Low noise when properly bedded
Excellent fade resistance for a dual-purpose pad
Great match for performance street tires
Best for: drivers who want a versatile Ferodo brake pad for daily driving, canyon runs, and light to moderate track use without giving up refinement.
Note: DS2500 is a race-derived compound and may produce more dust than an ordinary OEM street pad.
Ferodo DS3000 Brake Compound Details
The predecessor to DS1.11, DS3000 offers high initial bite with excellent feel and release. Popular among rally teams, DS3000 has a relatively low cold temperature threshold while still offering high temp stability for tarmac. DS3000 is very easy on discs at the expense of pad wear.
Ferodo FRP0216 Comparison Chart
Out of all the pad compounds we've ever tested, from all manufacturers, the Ferodo DS3.12 shows the flattest torque curve across the broadest temperature range. That means on every turn, on every track you drive, on every lap, your brake pedal is going to feel almost exactly the same, providing tremendous consistency and repeatability. The DS3.12 has a higher mu (µ) than Ferodo's other compounds, so not as much pedal pressure is required to initiate the desired response. It is also un-fadable, showing no drop in performance at any temperature your brakes will ever see.
Ferodo FRP0216Â Coefficient of Friction (Mu) Comparison Chart
In dyno testing, the Ferodo DS3.12 has shown superior wear rates to the other Ferodo compounds, while remaining kind to brake rotors. We believe the Ferodo DS3.12 will become the gold standard by which other race compounds will be judged.

Developed With Professional SIM Racing Drivers
The Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoe was developed with input from leading SIM racing drivers who understand the importance of pedal sensitivity, comfort, and consistent foot positioning.
Competitive simulator racing requires precise control over acceleration, braking pressure, and pedal transitions. Even small inconsistencies in foot movement can affect lap times and vehicle balance.
Alpinestars combines technology inspired by professional motorsport footwear with lightweight athletic construction to create a shoe specifically designed for virtual racing.
The result is a specialized SIM racing shoe that offers responsive pedal feedback while remaining comfortable during lengthy practice sessions, qualifying runs, and endurance events.
Ultra-Thin F1-Derived Rubber Outsole for Maximum Pedal Feel
The defining feature of the Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoe is its ultra-thin, Formula 1-derived rubber outsole.
Conventional athletic shoes often feature thick cushioning that can reduce the driver's ability to sense subtle changes in pedal pressure.
The Tech Gaming Shoe uses a much thinner sole construction designed to improve feedback from simulator pedals.
This increased sensitivity can help drivers make smaller, more consistent adjustments when applying throttle, modulating brake pressure, or transitioning between pedals.
The sole also features a specially textured rubber pattern that provides reliable grip on common simulator pedal surfaces.
For drivers using high-performance load-cell or hydraulic brake systems, direct pedal feedback is particularly valuable when practicing consistent braking pressure.
Seamless Knitted Upper for Sock-Like Comfort
The Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoe features a fully knitted, seamless stretch upper engineered to adapt naturally to the shape of the foot.
The flexible material provides a close-fitting feel without the rigid construction found in many traditional motorsport racing shoes.
Its seamless design helps reduce pressure points while allowing the foot to move naturally during repetitive pedal operation.
This construction is particularly beneficial during longer SIM racing sessions when comfort can become an important factor in maintaining consistent driving performance.
The knitted upper also contributes to the shoe's exceptionally lightweight design.
Breathable Materials for Long SIM Racing Sessions
Extended SIM racing sessions can generate considerable heat around the feet, especially when using enclosed simulator cockpits and high-resistance pedals.
The Tech Gaming Shoe features an open, breathable knit construction that encourages airflow around the foot.
Unlike thick, heavily padded athletic footwear, the lightweight knitted upper allows improved ventilation during demanding simulator sessions.
This helps maintain comfort throughout endurance races, extended practice periods, and competitive esports events.
Engineered Stretch Tongue and Ankle Collar
The Tech Gaming Shoe incorporates an engineered stretch tongue and ankle collar designed to provide a comfortable, secure fit.
The flexible opening conforms to the foot while simplifying entry and removal.
This construction eliminates much of the unnecessary bulk associated with conventional footwear while providing a close, adaptive feel.
A convenient rear pull tab allows drivers to put the shoes on quickly before entering their simulator cockpit.
The result is footwear that combines the stability needed for pedal operation with the convenience of lightweight athletic equipment.
Compatible With Load-Cell, Hydraulic, and Standard SIM Pedals
The Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoes are designed to work with a broad range of simulator pedal systems.
The ultra-thin rubber outsole helps provide tactile feedback across different pedal technologies, including:
Load-Cell SIM Racing Pedals
Hydraulic Brake Pedal Systems
Spring-Based Simulator Pedals
Direct-Drive Simulator Cockpit Setups
Formula-Style Simulator Pedals
GT-Style Racing Simulator Pedals
The textured rubber sole supports consistent contact with the pedal surface, while the flexible upper allows controlled foot movement.
Actual pedal feel depends on the simulator hardware, pedal resistance, and individual driver preference.
Ideal for iRacing, Assetto Corsa, and Competitive Esports
The Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoe is designed for dedicated SIM racing enthusiasts and esports competitors.
Its lightweight design, breathable upper, and responsive outsole make it an excellent choice for virtual racing across numerous simulator platforms.
Popular applications include:
iRacing
Assetto Corsa
Assetto Corsa Competizione
Gran Turismo
Automobilista 2
rFactor 2
Formula Racing Simulators
GT and Endurance SIM Racing
Home Racing Simulator Cockpits
Professional SIM Racing Training
Competitive Esports Events
The shoes are not tied to a specific gaming platform or simulator software. Their functionality is based on physical pedal interaction rather than electronic compatibility.
Precision Throttle and Brake Modulation
Consistent pedal control is one of the most important elements of competitive SIM racing.
The ultra-thin outsole of the Tech Gaming Shoe helps drivers feel the pedal surface more directly, supporting controlled acceleration and precise brake modulation.
This is particularly valuable during trail braking, progressive throttle application, and other driving techniques that rely on smooth pedal inputs.
The textured rubber provides traction without the bulky sensation of traditional sneakers.
By combining excellent grip with responsive pedal feedback, the Tech Gaming Shoe provides a purpose-built alternative to racing barefoot, in socks, or with conventional athletic footwear.
Alpinestars Tech Gaming Shoe Fit and Comfort
The Tech Gaming Shoe features a close-fitting, sock-like design created by its seamless stretch-knit upper.
Alpinestars indicates that most customers find the shoes true to size, although the adaptive performance fit may feel different from conventional athletic sneakers.
Drivers who prefer a looser fit or intend to wear thicker socks may prefer a larger size.
For the best results, compare your usual footwear size with the official Alpinestars footwear conversion guide before selecting your size.
Because the upper stretches to conform to the foot, the Tech Gaming Shoe is designed to provide comfort without excessive bulk or rigid pressure points.
