DescriptionThe whole story▼
Certified to CE Class AAA under EN 17092-2:2020, the IXON Vortex 3 in White/Grey/Blue represents the highest protection rating available for a one-piece motorcycle leather suit — engineered for riders who refuse to compromise on safety whether they are chasing lap times on track or pushing hard on a summer canyon road.
Key Features
- CE Class AAA certification to EN 17092-2:2020 — the highest standard for one-piece race suits
- Compatible with IX-AIRBAG vests U03, U04 and U05 for an additional layer of electronic airbag protection
- BETAC Type B armour at shoulders, elbows and knees, with Level 2 ventilated hip protectors and a foam coccyx guard
- Micro-perforations from knee to shoulder plus 3D mesh reinforcements at back and thighs for active airflow in summer conditions
- Close-cut race fit supported by 4-way stretch nylon and Lycra comfort zones for full freedom of movement in an aggressive riding position
- Race-ready details: aerodynamic hump, replaceable ELBOW 2.0 elbow sliders, adjustable RACE 2.0 knee sliders and a YKK main zip with self-locking slider
Protection You Can Trust on Track and Road
The EN 17092-2:2020 Class AAA rating is not a marketing figure — it is the result of rigorous independent testing covering abrasion resistance, seam strength, impact energy absorption and ergonomic fit. Every IXON Vortex 3 that leaves the factory meets this standard, giving you the confidence to focus entirely on the ride.
The protection package inside the suit is equally considered. BETAC Type B protectors cover the shoulders, elbows and knees at Level 1, while the hip armour is rated Level 2 for superior impact absorption in a zone that takes heavy loading in a slide. A foam coccyx guard adds a further layer of coverage at the base of the spine. Should you want to raise your protection further still, pockets are integrated for optional fanom® chest protectors, and the suit is fully prepared for IX-AIRBAG vest integration — compatible with the U03, U04 and U05 systems.
Structural integrity is maintained throughout by fully secured double stitching, a double-layer seat panel, and leather reinforcements at both inner and outer high-load zones — details that matter the moment you need them most.
Perforated Leather Construction for Summer Performance
Racing hard in warm weather demands a suit that manages heat without sacrificing protection. The Vortex 3 addresses this with localised micro-perforations running from the knees up to the shoulders, creating directed airflow paths through the leather panels. Three-dimensional mesh reinforcements at the back and thighs complement the perforations by promoting ventilation in areas that experience sustained pressure and restricted air movement.
The result is a perforated men's race suit that performs in the conditions where it is most likely to be used:
- Summer sport riding on open roads
- Track days in warm or hot ambient temperatures
- Circuit racing sessions where core temperature management directly affects concentration and lap consistency
- Demanding riders who need high performance from every piece of equipment they wear
Race-Bred Construction and Ergonomics
IXON's motorsport development background is evident in every detail of the Vortex 3. The outer shell combines full-grain leather with 4-way stretch nylon panels and Lycra comfort zones — a combination that delivers the abrasion resistance of traditional leather construction while allowing the suit to move naturally with the rider through corner entry, weight transfer and body positioning.
The feature set reads like a specification sheet from a professional paddock: a new aerodynamic racing hump shaped for minimum drag at speed, replaceable ELBOW 2.0 elbow sliders, removable and adjustable RACE 2.0 knee sliders, a YKK main zipper with self-locking pull, semi self-locking zips at the calf and wrist openings, a neoprene comfort collar, a removable mesh inner vest, anti-slip shin plates, a 0.5-litre hydration bladder docking system, and ankle straps for convenient hanging during storage or between sessions.
White/Grey/Blue Colourway
The White/Grey/Blue combination carries a technical, contemporary character that stands apart from traditional single-colour race suits. The palette reads as purposeful rather than decorative — clean white base panels set against cool grey and sharp blue accents give the suit a modern supersport aesthetic that works equally well in the pit lane and on the start line. It pairs naturally with current-generation supersports, performance naked bikes and dedicated track machines.
Fitment and Compatibility
The IXON Vortex 3 is a men's one-piece leather race suit available in sizes S through 4XL. Airbag vest compatibility covers the IX-AIRBAG U03, U04 and U05 systems. The suit is suited to summer, track day and performance road use, and is designed to accept optional fanom® chest protectors in the integrated pockets.
