The Launch of Delfino Race Underwear: The New Standard in FIA Approved Motorsport Base Layers

In motorsport, race suits get the attention. Helmets get the technology headlines. But the layer closest to the driver often has the biggest influence on comfort, focus, and performance.

That layer is race underwear.

With the launch of the new Delfino Race Underwear, Fyshe introduces a premium FIA-approved Nomex base layer system designed for professional and amateur drivers who expect more from their motorsport equipment.

Introducing the New Fyshe Delfino Race Underwear Range

The new Delfino Nomex Race Underwear collection has been engineered specifically for motorsport environments where heat management, fire protection, breathability, and unrestricted movement directly affect driver performance.

The range includes:

• Delfino Nomex Race Underwear Top
• Delfino Nomex Race Underwear Pant
• Delfino Nomex Race Socks
• Delfino Nomex Race Balaclava

Each piece is designed to work together as an integrated racewear system rather than individual garments. The result is a consistent fit, reduced distractions, and improved comfort inside the cockpit.

Fyshe confirms the range is engineered using FIA  approved Nomex construction, meeting FIA 8856-2018 homologation requirements for motorsport safety.

Why Race Underwear Matters More Than Drivers Think

Many drivers focus on the outer suit first.

Professional motorsport works differently.

Race underwear acts as the first protective barrier against heat exposure while helping regulate temperature during long sessions, endurance races, and high-pressure environments.

According to Fyshe, race underwear should deliver:

• Fire resistance
• Thermal regulation
• Moisture control
• Lightweight comfort
• Seam reduction for lower irritation
• Consistent fit under the race suit

The new Delfino range has been developed around exactly these principles.

Built Around Nomex Performance

At the centre of the Delfino launch is Nomex, one of the most recognised materials in professional motorsport safety systems.

Unlike conventional fabrics, Nomex fibres are inherently flame resistant and are engineered not to melt or drip under extreme temperatures. Fyshe highlights this as a key safety feature within its race underwear systems.

For drivers, this translates into:

Lightweight Feel

Bulk creates distractions.

The Delfino system is designed to feel almost invisible beneath the race suit, functioning as a second skin.

Breathability During Long Stints

Heat management becomes increasingly important during endurance racing, karting championships, GT competition, and track events.

The breathable construction supports airflow and moisture control to help maintain concentration.

Reduced Restriction

Motorsport requires constant movement:

• Steering inputs
• Pedal transitions
• Driver changes
• Cockpit adjustments

The close-fit construction removes excess material while preserving freedom of movement.

FIA Approved Race Underwear Designed for Modern Motorsport

Search demand for terms such as:

• FIA approved race underwear
• Nomex race underwear
• Motorsport base layers
• Fire resistant racing underwear
• FIA 8856-2018 underwear
• Professional race underwear

continues to grow as more amateur drivers move toward professional safety standards.

The Delfino collection positions itself directly in this category.

Fyshe states the collection is built to comply with FIA 8856-2018 testing standards covering flame resistance, heat transfer protection and material stability.

For drivers competing in regulated motorsport, this level of certification is increasingly expected.

The Delfino Difference: Performance Meets Identity

The launch also expands beyond traditional race underwear.

Fyshe offers Printed Delfino Underwear, allowing teams and drivers to integrate:

• Sponsor logos
• Team branding
• Driver names
• Custom graphics
• Motorsport identities

Importantly, customisation is integrated while maintaining FIA-compliant construction and performance requirements.

This creates a new category of premium personalised race underwear where safety and branding exist together.

Who Is Delfino Race Underwear For?

The new launch is designed for:

Professional Racing Drivers

Drivers requiring FIA-approved equipment with uncompromising safety standards.

GT and Endurance Competitors

Breathability and thermal regulation become increasingly important during longer sessions.

Karting Drivers Progressing Upwards

Moving into higher competition levels often means upgrading to certified racewear systems.

Motorsport Teams

Printed Delfino options allow complete visual consistency across racewear.

Serious Track Day Enthusiasts

Even outside professional competition, premium base layers improve comfort and focus.

Why Fyshe Is Positioning Delfino as a Complete Racewear System

Fyshe describes racewear as an integrated performance ecosystem:

Base layer → Race suit → Gloves → Boots

Each component performs a defined role.

The base layer starts the system.

The launch of Delfino reinforces this philosophy by creating a dedicated race underwear platform rather than treating underwear as an accessory.

For drivers, that means:

✔ FIA approved protection
✔ Nomex fire resistance
✔ Temperature regulation
✔ Lightweight construction
✔ Professional motorsport fit
✔ Bespoke and printed options
