OMP's MY2026 Tecnica Evo Balaclava is designed to provide flame-resistant protection for your head and neck during competition use. It uses a newly developed lightweight and breathable fabric to help regulate body temperature while maintaining full compliance with FIA safety standards.

Discover the key features of this balaclava and how each one contributes to safety, comfort, and performance:

• Ultra-soft flame-retardant material: Constructed using an advanced lightweight fabric developed to meet FIA 8856-2018 approval, this material delivers full flame protection while maintaining a soft next-to-skin feel that reduces irritation and improves comfort during extended use under a helmet.
• Enhanced breathability: Engineered to be 10% more breathable than the previous version, this feature supports better airflow around your face and scalp which helps reduce perspiration and contributes to improved thermal regulation.
• Ultra-flat seam construction: Designed to minimise bulk at stitching points, this construction lowers the chance of pressure points developing under your helmet and promotes a more uniform, comfortable fit across your face and head.
• Close, non-restrictive fit: The stretch properties of the elasticated fabric enable the balaclava to conform closely to your head shape without compression, improving helmet fit and allowing for unrestricted movement.
• FIA 8856-2018 approved: This latest specification approval ensures the product is suitable for current motorsport safety requirements, giving you access to a wide range of regulated events while maintaining high safety assurance.

This balaclava helps maintain fire protection and heat control while you’re in the car, using technical materials that balance safety and comfort. The updated fabric and construction methods work together to support long-term wear under your helmet with fewer distractions. It’s a smart addition to your racewear kit if you’re looking to improve both comfort and performance within an FIA-compliant setup.
