Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your suit, begin by checking the fitment while in a crouched riding position rather than standing upright, as the leather will naturally form to your body over time. Always store the suit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out. When cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain the suppleness of the hide. Regularly inspect the D3O armour inserts to ensure they are seated correctly in their pockets. If the suit becomes damp, allow it to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators, which can warp the leather and damage the protective integrity of the stitching.
