Over the years spanning the golden age of racing all the way up to modern day, OMP has provided racing equipment and accessories for motorsports legends such as Michael Schumacher, Ayrton Senna, Phil Hill, Mika Hakkinen, and Gerhard Berger to name a few. Striving to honor the racing legends of years past and celebrate the remarkable era in motorsports in which they competed, OMP has introduced the new Vintage racing line for 2009; a compilation of stunningly designed racing accessories commemorating OMP’s early racing years in the 1970’s.
Composed of an array of different products including helmets, racing suits, gloves, boots, steering wheels, and seats, every product in the OMP Vintage line was designed to echo the retro look of the past while offering the very best in modern performance and protection. Of the new Vintage line, perhaps no product molds the racing heritage of yesteryear with the modern quality standards of today better than the Carrera boot. The stylish leather racing shoe incorporates vintage cool in a way that allows enthusiasts to wear the Carrera off the track, but is also adept at offering the peak performance and protection during vintage track days that OMP demands.
Priced at $299 (U.S.), the Italian-made leather driving shoes are crafted for comfort under the expertise of practiced artisans. Available in stately two variations of brown, light or dark, the hand stitched footwear delivers the ultimate in comfort and usability due to their careful compilation by highly skilled Italian artisans.
Other items in the newly release Vintage Collection from OMP are the Tazio and Dijon driving gloves ($69 and $139, respectively), a collection of vintage inspired racing suits including the Vintage Superleggera ($1,649), Classic Racing Suit ($799) and the Vintage Le Mans Suit ($999). OMP can also customize any racing suit to customer’s desire. To complete the Vintage Collection OMP also offers the Monza vintage steeling wheel ($329), as well as the Ghibli and Retro helmets ($499 and $299) to complete the vintage look.
OMP America offers the world’s finest racing equipment with safety gear such as helmets and suits for drivers, tuning products for specialty cars, as well as offering a full selection of Karting accessories.
