The Ride Tech Lite 1 PC Undersuit from Alpinestars is either an undersuit or a thermal suit, depending on which you prefer. You wear it under a race suit, where it takes both comfort and temperature to a higher level.
'Higher' in this case means: more desirable.
Do you need that, such an undersuit that regulates the temperature or allows you to slip into your leather harness twice as smoothly? No, shivering from cold and bathing in sweat is also allowed. And with a tube of talcum powder, you can easily get in and out of your race suit. But, if you like a bit more comfort, if you're looking for a bit more confidence and if you're looking for better lap times, then this Ride Tech Lite 1 PC undersuit is worth considering.
The ultralight, technical base layer is anatomically optimized to fit almost perfectly under your fixed outerwear. The comfortable, moisture-wicking fibers ensure good climate control. Not warmer, not colder: good. Hence the term 'thermal'. This suit regulates your body temperature and keeps it at the same level. Regardless of the conditions outside, that means striving for good moisture removal. In all situations.
Mesh material has been placed where it makes sense, and the construction creates a form of compression - even pressure on the body - which enhances performance. Where a seam was required, it's flat and ergonomic, so as not to impede movement and to maximize your freedom of movement.
For completeness: wearing only the Ride Tech Lite 1 PC Undersuit is - as soon as you want to leave the house anyway - not an option. This is by no means a full-blown racing suit.
