OMP KS-3 MY2026 Kart Racing Shoes
The OMP KS-3 MY2026 Kart Racing Shoes are designed for beginner and developing drivers who want lightweight comfort, flexible support, and dependable pedal feel. Built specifically for karting, the KS-3 combines a soft suede upper with breathable mesh inserts and a kart-specific outsole to help new racers feel more comfortable and confident behind the wheel.
The forgiving upper adapts to a wide range of foot shapes, while the padded tongue and rear bellow construction improve comfort and ankle mobility. Side reinforcement adds support during braking and cornering, making the KS-3 a practical choice for rental karting, sprint karting, club racing, and recreational driving.
Comfort and Control for Developing Kart Racers
The OMP KS-3 MY2026 is built around the needs of drivers learning proper braking, throttle control, and pedal transitions. Its lightweight construction helps reduce unnecessary bulk around the foot, while the flexible upper allows natural movement during repeated pedal operation.
A kart-specific outsole provides the grip and sensitivity needed to feel changes in brake pressure and throttle input, helping drivers develop smoother and more consistent control.
Lightweight Suede Upper
The soft suede upper provides a comfortable and flexible fit without sacrificing everyday durability. Its forgiving construction makes the KS-3 suitable for a broad range of foot shapes and helps reduce stiffness during longer practice sessions.
Breathable Mesh Inserts
Mesh panels improve airflow through the shoe and help reduce heat buildup during extended indoor and outdoor karting sessions. The breathable construction supports greater comfort when driving in warm conditions or completing multiple sessions in one day.
Padded Tongue
A padded tongue cushions the top of the foot and helps distribute pressure from the laces more evenly. This improves overall comfort and creates a more secure fit without excessive tightness.
Flexible Rear Bellow
The rear bellow construction allows the ankle and Achilles area to move more naturally during braking and acceleration. This added flexibility helps reduce restriction while maintaining support around the rear of the shoe.
Supportive Side Reinforcement
Reinforcement along the side of the shoe adds stability during braking and cornering loads. It also improves durability in an area commonly exposed to contact with pedals and kart chassis components.
Two-Tone Karting Outsole
The two-tone outsole is designed specifically for karting traction and pedal feel. Its low-profile construction helps drivers maintain a close connection with the brake and throttle while providing dependable grip during driving and movement around the paddock.
Adult and Youth Sizing
The OMP KS-3 MY2026 is available in adult and youth sizing options, making it a versatile choice for new drivers of different ages. Available sizes may vary by color and current inventory.

OMP KS-4 Karting Suit | CIK-FIA Level 1 Closeout
$149.66
$289.00
OMP KS-4 Karting Suit – CIK-FIA Level 1 (2026 Expiry)
The OMP KS-4 Karting Suit is a value-focused choice for kart racers who need durable abrasion protection, breathable comfort, and dependable freedom of movement. This closeout model features four-layer construction and CIK-FIA Level 1 homologation with a 2026 expiry, making it an affordable option for eligible racing series, practice sessions, and recreational karting.
A resistant polyester exterior helps protect the driver from abrasion, while the soft cotton-sponge interior improves comfort during long sessions. Ventilated mesh inserts and flexible arm bellows help reduce restriction and heat buildup when driving in a seated karting position.
Four-Layer Karting Protection at a Closeout Price
The KS-4 uses a four-layer construction designed specifically for kart racing. Its durable polyester outer material provides abrasion resistance, while the soft interior creates a more comfortable surface against the driver’s clothing or karting base layers.
This is not a flame-resistant auto racing suit. It is purpose-built for karting, where protection from contact with the track surface is the primary concern.
CIK-FIA Level 1 Homologation
This version of the OMP KS-4 is homologated to the CIK-FIA Level 1 karting standard and carries a 2026 expiry. Because individual championships may require newer FIA 8877-2022 equipment, drivers should confirm the accepted suit standard with their track or sanctioning organization before purchasing.
The certification label sewn into the individual suit should always be treated as the final reference for its homologation and expiration information.
Breathable Construction for Hot Karting Sessions
OMP places ventilated mesh inserts around the legs, shoulders, and pocket areas to improve airflow through common heat zones. These breathable sections help make the KS-4 more comfortable during indoor karting, warm-weather practice sessions, and extended race weekends.
The low-cut collar also reduces excess material around the neck when seated, helping the driver remain comfortable while wearing a helmet and neck support.
Flexible Fit Behind the Wheel
Elastic knitted arm bellows allow the sleeves to move more naturally as the driver steers through tight corners. The kart-specific fit reduces restriction across the shoulders and upper body, while the adjustable waist belt helps create a secure and personalized fit.
The straightforward design makes the KS-4 especially suitable for newer racers, budget-conscious competitors, rental-kart league drivers, and experienced drivers looking for a dependable backup suit.

OMP KS-4 Karting Suit FAQs
What does the 2026 expiry mean?The suit’s CIK-FIA Level 1 homologation is marked with a 2026 expiration. Acceptance can still vary by championship, so confirm the required standard with your track or racing organization before ordering.
Can I use the OMP KS-4 in FIA-sanctioned kart racing?That depends on the event regulations. Some organizations may continue accepting CIK-FIA Level 1 suits through their labeled expiration, while other series now require FIA 8877-2022 homologation.
Is this the new OMP KS-4 MY2026 suit?No. This is the previous four-layer KS-4 model with CIK-FIA Level 1 homologation. The redesigned MY2026 version has a different product number, material package, ventilation system, and overall construction.
Is the OMP KS-4 fire resistant?No. The KS-4 is an abrasion-resistant karting suit and is not designed to provide flame protection. It must not replace an FIA- or SFI-certified fire-resistant suit in automotive racing.
How many layers does this KS-4 have?This previous-generation OMP KS-4 uses four-layer construction. That specification applies to the CIK-FIA Level 1 version shown in this listing and not necessarily to newer suits carrying the same KS-4 name.
Where are the ventilation panels located?Mesh inserts are positioned around the legs, shoulders, and pocket areas to increase airflow and help reduce heat buildup during karting sessions.
Does the KS-4 provide good arm movement?Yes. Elastic knitted bellows around the arms help the sleeves move with the driver while steering, reducing pulling and restriction across the shoulders.
Is the OMP KS-4 suitable for indoor karting?Yes. Its abrasion-resistant construction, ventilation panels, and comfortable interior make it suitable for indoor karting leagues and practice sessions, subject to the facility’s clothing requirements.
Should I size up when wearing a rib protector?Take your measurements while accounting for any rib protector or protective gear worn underneath the suit. When measurements fall between sizes, the larger option will usually provide more room while seated.
How should I wash the OMP KS-4?Follow the care label attached to the suit. Use a mild detergent and cool, gentle wash when permitted. Avoid bleach and fabric softener, and allow the suit to air dry rather than using high heat.
Can closeout karting suits be returned?Return eligibility depends on Competition Karting’s current closeout policy. Keep the suit clean, unused, and fully tagged until the fit and certification have been confirmed.

OMP KS-3 Kart Racing Suit | CIK-FIA Level 2
$149.66
$349.00
OMP KS-3 Kart Racing Suit
The OMP KS-3 Kart Racing Suit combines proven CIK-FIA Level 2 protection with the ventilation, flexibility, and comfort needed for long race weekends. Its lightweight three-layer construction provides durable karting protection without making the driver feel unnecessarily restricted behind the wheel.
Breathable mesh panels help release heat from key areas, while the soft knitted inner lining improves comfort against the body. A low-profile collar, elastic rear insert, and purpose-built karting cut allow the suit to sit naturally when the driver is seated.
CIK-FIA Level 2 Karting Protection
The KS-3 is homologated to the CIK-FIA Level 2 karting standard. Unlike an automotive racing suit, which is designed primarily for flame protection, the KS-3 is engineered to help protect a kart driver against abrasion during an on-track incident.
Its three-layer design balances resistance and comfort, making the KS-3 a dependable choice for club racers, experienced competitors, and drivers moving into organized karting competition.
Ventilation Where Kart Drivers Need It
Kart racing places the driver close to the engine, track surface, and surrounding bodywork, making ventilation an important part of suit comfort. OMP places breathable mesh inserts along the legs, crotch, and underneath the sleeves to increase airflow while driving.
The soft knitted lining helps create a more comfortable interior, while the lightweight exterior limits unnecessary bulk. Together, these features help reduce distraction during practice sessions, qualifying, and extended race-day use.
Designed for Movement in the Kart
An elastic insert across the back allows the suit to move more naturally as the driver leans forward, turns the wheel, and shifts body position through corners. The low-cut collar reduces excess material around the neck while seated, and the cuffs provide a secure fit around the wrists and ankles.
The KS-3 also includes two practical outer pockets, an integrated belt design, and a motorcycle-inspired front zipper that gives the suit its distinctive OMP appearance.

Before entering an event, drivers should confirm the required suit standard with their track or sanctioning organization. Some current championships require the newer FIA 8877-2022 karting standard rather than the earlier CIK-FIA Level 2 homologation.
OMP KS-3 Kart Racing Suit Sizing Chart
OMP KS-3 Kart Racing Suit FAQs
Is the OMP KS-3 kart racing suit FIA approved?The OMP KS-3 is homologated to the CIK-FIA Level 2 karting standard. Because equipment requirements vary between tracks and racing organizations, verify that CIK-FIA Level 2 suits are accepted by your specific series before ordering.
What is the difference between the OMP KS-3 and KS-3X?The original KS-3 carries CIK-FIA Level 2 homologation. The newer OMP KS-3X is certified to the FIA 8877-2022 karting standard. Drivers competing under newer regulations should check whether their series specifically requires FIA 8877-2022 equipment.
Is the OMP KS-3 fire resistant?No. The KS-3 is a karting suit designed primarily for abrasion protection and is not a fire-resistant auto racing suit. Drivers participating in automotive competition should use an appropriately certified FIA 8856-2018 or SFI-rated racing suit.
How many layers does the OMP KS-3 have?The adult OMP KS-3 uses a three-layer construction designed to provide karting protection while maintaining manageable weight and flexibility.
Where are the ventilation panels located?Breathable mesh inserts are positioned along the legs, crotch, and underneath the sleeves. These areas help increase airflow around common heat zones while the driver is seated in the kart.
Does the OMP KS-3 have stretch material?The suit includes an elastic insert across the back to improve fit and mobility. This allows the upper body to move more comfortably when reaching for the steering wheel or leaning through corners.
Does the KS-3 include pockets?Yes. The suit has two outer pockets for small personal items while away from the kart. Pockets should be emptied before driving whenever required by track or series regulations.
What sizes are available?The adult KS-3 is produced in European sizes 42 through 62. Use the OMP sizing chart and compare your height, chest, waist, and other measurements rather than selecting a size based only on casual clothing.
How should the OMP KS-3 kart suit be cleaned?Always follow the care label sewn into the suit. OMP generally recommends turning suits inside out, using cool water with mild detergent, selecting a delicate cycle or hand washing, and avoiding bleach and fabric softener.
Is the KS-3 suitable for junior kart racers?The adult version is offered in European sizes 42 through 62. OMP also produces a separate youth KS-3 model in children’s sizes, so junior drivers should use the listing and sizing chart made specifically for the youth suit.

Alpinestars Tech-1 K v3 Karting Gloves | FIA 8877-2022
$144.95
Alpinestars Tech-1 K v3 Karting Gloves
The Alpinestars Tech-1 K v3 Karting Gloves are premium competition gloves designed for drivers who demand precise steering feedback, lightweight comfort, and dependable grip. Their ergonomic construction combines pre-curved fingers, a synthetic suede palm, and strategically applied silicone grip to create a responsive connection with the kart steering wheel.
Four-way stretch materials allow the gloves to move naturally with the hands, while semi-external seams reduce interior bulk and pressure points. Certified to the FIA 8877-2022 Grade 1 homologation standard, the Tech-1 K v3 delivers current competition approval with the fit, sensitivity, and distinctive styling expected from Alpinestars.
FIA 8877-2022 Grade 1 Homologation
The Alpinestars Tech-1 K v3 is homologated to the FIA 8877-2022 Grade 1 standard for karting apparel. This current certification makes the gloves suitable for karting events that require FIA-approved protective equipment.
Drivers should always confirm the specific equipment rules of their championship, sanctioning organization, or event before competition.
Lightweight Construction with Precise Steering Feel
The Tech-1 K v3 uses a lightweight chassis that minimizes unnecessary material between the driver and steering wheel. This streamlined construction helps preserve tactile feedback, allowing the driver to feel changes in front-end grip, steering load, and chassis movement.
Reduced bulk also allows the fingers to move freely when making quick corrections or maintaining a consistent steering position during demanding sessions.
Four-Way Stretch Upper
A dual-layer nylon and cotton upper incorporates four-way stretch to provide a close, flexible fit. The material follows the natural movement of the hand without creating excessive resistance across the knuckles or fingers.
The stretch construction also helps reduce loose material and bunching, keeping the glove securely positioned during rapid steering inputs.
Synthetic Suede Palm
The synthetic suede palm provides a durable and stable contact surface for the steering wheel. Its low-profile construction balances abrasion resistance with the sensitivity needed for precise kart control.
Synthetic suede also supports consistent performance through repeated practice sessions, qualifying runs, and race-day use.
Silicone-Printed Grip
Silicone printing across the palm improves traction against the steering wheel. The grip treatment helps reduce unwanted hand movement during braking, cornering, and quick changes of direction.
Because the silicone is applied directly to the palm surface, it adds grip without requiring a thick reinforcement layer that could reduce steering feel.
Pre-Curved Finger Design
The fingers are shaped to follow the natural position of the hand around a kart steering wheel. This pre-curved construction reduces material bunching and minimizes the effort needed to maintain a secure grip.
A more natural hand position can help reduce fatigue during long races, endurance events, and repeated sessions throughout a race weekend.
Semi-External Seams
Semi-external seams move much of the stitching away from sensitive contact areas inside the fingers. This creates a smoother interior and helps reduce irritation or pressure during extended use.
The seam configuration also supports a close fit while maintaining the durability required for competitive karting.
Sublimated Alpinestars Graphics
The upper glove features bold sublimated graphics that resist fading and cracking. Multiple color combinations allow drivers to coordinate their gloves with their karting suit, helmet, shoes, and team colors.
The graphic treatment provides a distinctive appearance without adding raised materials or unnecessary weight to the glove.
Straight-Cut Gauntlet Cuff
A straight-cut gauntlet cuff extends over the wrist to provide a clean, secure fit. The streamlined design allows the glove to remain comfortably positioned while maintaining unrestricted wrist movement.
The cuff construction also makes the gloves easy to put on and remove between sessions.

AiM Sports Karting Steering Angle Sensor Potentiometer
$141.00
AiM Kart Racing Steering Angle Sensor
Measure and log your kart driver's steering input with the AiM Steering Angle Sensor. Includes a rotary potentiometer with a male 4-pin 719-style connector, two toothed pulleys, one toothed belt, and one sensor mounting bracket.
The steering shaft pulley is designed to fit a 7/8"-diameter shaft. (Smaller shafts will need to add a bushing to fit the pulley.) This sensor is designed to measure up to five complete turns of the steering column. This sensor requires the addition of an Expansion Box or eBox when used with MyChron3 Extreme, MyChron4, and MyChron5 kart dash loggers.
If your steering column is larger than 7/8", consider using the AiM String Pot Steering Angle Sensor (Part No. AIM-MC-280) instead. The String Pot can work with any diameter steering shaft.
