Racewear news, December 2021
Our Sparco Martini Racing range has been brought up to date for 2022, and it now covers every piece of racewear you need to get on track: suit, gloves, boots and helmet. The suits and helmets carry current approvals, and the Martini boots have just gone live on the site.
The Martini stripes are the reason most people look at this range. Underneath the livery it is proper Sparco kit, so here is what each piece is and what it is approved to.

What is in the Martini range
Sparco’s Martini Racing collection is a themed set. The suit, gloves, boots and helmet all wear the same blue and red stripes, so they can be bought as a matching outfit or one piece at a time to go with kit you already own.
The boots, suit and gloves are all approved to FIA 8856-2018, the FIA standard for race suits, underwear, gloves and boots. The gloves carry SFI 3.3/5 as well. The helmet is a separate standard altogether, which we cover below.
The boots are the newest part of the range on our site. They are FIA approved race boots in suede, with the Martini stripes down the sides, and we think they are one of the best looking boots in the Sparco range.
The Martini Racing suit
The Martini Racing retro suit is a limited edition, FIA approved suit that pairs the old Martini look with a modern build. The outer fabric is soft and light, with breathable inserts at the sides and under the arms, a lightweight collar and very light seams.
The sleeves are pre-shaped for the driving position, and there is an adjustable belt and hidden pockets. The design is clean and linear, with the stripes doing the work.
The Land Classic Martini gloves
These are a limited edition version of Sparco’s popular Land glove. The standard Land range does not come in these colours: the Martini version is blue and red, with the Martini stripes and logo on the back of the hand.
They are made from a very light layer of Nomex with an aramid construction, and a suede reinforcement on the palm for grip. The palm is shaped to the way a hand holds a wheel, with reinforced stitching, so the gloves stay put and do not slide around.
The Air Pro RF-5W Martini helmet
The helmet is the full face Sparco Air Pro RF-5W in Martini colours. The shell is lightweight fibreglass reinforced with carbon-Kevlar, which keeps the weight down and makes it comfortable to wear for long sessions. Our listing shows it approved to FIA 8859-2015 and Snell SA2020.
It has an adjustable visor, a removable flame retardant lining that can be washed, and room for a drink system. The EPS padding is shaped to help air move through the helmet, and HANS posts are fitted at the factory, so it is ready to use with a HANS device.
Garreth’s advice on any helmet is to measure your head properly before you order. Our guide to choosing the right helmet size shows how, and our review of the Sparco Martini collection goes through the range piece by piece.
