IXON Vortex 3 One-Piece Leather Suit – Perforated Race Suit for Men | Black/White

When your safety standard is non-negotiable, the IXON Vortex 3 one-piece leather suit makes the argument before you even throw a leg over the bike. CE-certified to Class AAA under EN 17092-2:2020 — the highest protection category in the European standard — this perforated men's race suit is engineered with MotoGP influence to deliver elite-level protection, all-day ergonomics and genuine airflow management in a sharp Black/White colour scheme.

Key Features

• CE Class AAA certification to EN 17092-2:2020 — the highest level of protection available under the European motorcycle clothing standard
• Compatible with IXON IX-AIRBAG vests U03, U04 and U05 for modern, connected airbag protection
• BETAC Type B armour at shoulders, elbows and knees (Level 1), vented Level 2 hip protectors and foam coccyx protection — comprehensive coverage throughout
• Micro-perforation across key panels combined with 3D mesh inserts at the back and thighs for active airflow management on warm track days
• 4-way stretch nylon panels and Lycra comfort zones work with the leather shell to allow a full race tuck without restriction
• Pockets for optional fanom® chest protectors, replaceable elbow sliders and removable/adjustable knee sliders round out a well-considered protection package

Maximum Protection Where It Counts

Class AAA certification under EN 17092-2:2020 is the hardest abrasion and impact standard a one-piece suit can meet under current European legislation. The IXON Vortex 3 earns that rating through reinforced leather zones at the highest-impact areas, double safety stitching throughout and BETAC Type B protectors at the shoulders, elbows and knees. Level 2 hip protectors and foam coccyx padding address the areas that entry-level suits often leave under-protected.

Airbag readiness adds a further dimension to the safety package. The Vortex 3 is cut and constructed to work directly with the IXON IX-AIRBAG vests U03, U04 and U05, so riders who already use or plan to add an electronic airbag system can do so without compromise. Pockets for optional fanom® chest protectors mean the suit can be upgraded further to meet personal risk assessments and track-day regulations.

Perforated Construction for Warm-Weather Performance

Heat management is a genuine performance variable at track pace, and the Vortex 3 addresses it with precision rather than guesswork. Strategically placed micro-perforations channel airflow across the zones where temperature build-up is greatest, while 3D mesh inserts at the back and thighs enhance circulation and maintain comfort across longer sessions. The result is a leather suit genuinely suited to summer riding and sustained track use — not a compromise between protection and breathability.

The perforated construction makes the Vortex 3 the right choice for:

• Summer track days and warm-weather circuit riding
• Sportive road riding where temperature and intensity are both high
• Riders who want the abrasion resistance of full leather without sacrificing ventilation
• Anyone who has outgrown textile suits and demands a certified, breathable leather option

Race-Fit Ergonomics and Freedom of Movement

A race suit that restricts movement in the tuck or through a fast direction change is a liability, not an asset. The Vortex 3 is designed around the demands of a committed riding position, combining the structural integrity of the leather outer shell with 4-way stretch nylon panels and Lycra comfort zones positioned precisely where the body moves most — through the arms, shoulders and inner legs. The fit is close and race-orientated, supporting your position rather than fighting it, and remains controllable even under sustained physical load.

Whether you are hanging off through a long sweeper or braced in a deep tuck on a straight, the suit moves with you. That quality of fit also translates directly to real-world safety: a suit that stays correctly positioned on the body performs as tested when it matters.

Premium Detail and Practical Equipment

The Vortex 3 is equipped throughout with details that reflect its professional intent. The new aerodynamic racing hump improves airflow management at speed while contributing to the suit's track-focused silhouette. The YKK main zip features a self-locking slider for security at pace, and the soft neoprene collar finish sits comfortably against bare skin during extended sessions.

Additional equipment includes:

• New aerodynamic racing hump
• Replaceable elbow sliders
• Removable and adjustable knee sliders
• YKK main zip with self-locking slider
• Soft neoprene collar
• Removable mesh vest

• Docking system for a 0.5-litre water bladder
• Ankle straps for convenient hanging storage
