Why isn't the suit cheaper?
Andromeda was born as a first level sports brand; therefore, we give more importance to quality than quantity. You can find very inexpensive motorcycle suits on the market, but you should always look at the features. The NearX suit is in the league of premium suits that offer the highest performance.
Both the protections and the materials used are the most advanced ones on the market. For example, the main fabric, made of ultra-resistant polyethylene, is 3 times more expensive than leather.
Should I choose 1 or 2 pieces?
Our recommendation is that you choose the 2-piece suit if you do not usually go to circuits, because if you make a stop during the route and you want to take off the top part, it will be more comfortable. The 2-piece suit will also be easier to put on and take off.
The 1-piece suit is recommended if you frequently go to circuits, since in case there is an accident, it always provides extra security if it is all in one piece and does not have zippers.
How do I take my measurements?
In this page you can find a pdf for men and another one for women. In this pdf you can see the 3 steps you have to follow, and the link to the video where it is clearly explained how to take your measurements.
How tight do I have to wear the suit?
Any racing driver will tell you that it is always safer if the suit is tight, with no loose fit, even if it is a bit more uncomfortable. The same can be applied to the rest of the clothing equipment, such as gloves.
Are men's and women's suits the same?
For the women's suit we take into account one size more. But the manufacturing materials and quality are exactly the same. All the suits are made to fit the body of each person.
Can it be customized?
We can include your logo if you wish, as long as it does not take over the reserved areas of the Andromeda brand. As for the color, we do not make the suit in other colors for sustainability reasons, so that we do not use additional chemicals that pollute the environment.
Can I order it without a hump?
Some customers ask us if we can manufacture the suit without a hump, for aesthetic reasons. Safety is one of our brand values, and to remove the hump is to detract from the rider's neck protection in the event of a fall (as well as decreasing the aerodynamic performance). For this reason, we have decided that our suits will always include the hump.
