OMP summer mechanics overalls in single layer polycotton, with removable knee pads. Part number NB1579.
These are not fireproof
Worth saying plainly, because OMP also make Nomex crew overalls and the names look similar. These are hard wearing workwear for a garage or a paddock, not fire rated crew equipment.
If your series requires fireproof crew clothing, particularly anywhere refuelling happens, these will not satisfy it and we will point you at the right thing. Tell us what you are running in.
What makes them worth having
The knee pads, mostly. Anyone who has spent a weekend kneeling on paddock tarmac knows why. They are removable, so they come out when you are not on the floor and the overalls stay comfortable.
Single layer polycotton means they are genuinely cool to work in through a summer meeting, which two layer overalls are not.
The details
Internal tool pocket, two large thigh pockets, Velcro at the neck, waist and ankles so they close properly round boots and do not catch.
Tell us your usual size and height and we will advise.
Have you written anything about this exact product?
Yes, we have covered this exact product: Bell FIA Helmets Updated For Summer 2024, and Bell FIA Helmets Updated For Summer 2023. That is first-hand coverage from our own builds and showroom, not brochure copy.
What size should I order?
Sizes run from 44 to 64. Crew kit gets worn over normal clothes for long days, so if you are between sizes, take the larger one for comfort. Ask us if you want measurements checked before ordering.
Is this fireproof?
No, this is workwear rather than homologated fire-resistant kit. It is right for the workshop and general paddock duties; for refuelling or live pit work in series that require it, look at the FIA 8856 crew garments in the range.
How do I wash it?
Cool and gentle, no bleach or fabric softener, air dry. That preserves any fire-resistant treatment and keeps embroidery and badges in shape season after season.
