The Sparco Shield RW-9 is a fire-resistant Nomex balaclava homologated to FIA 8856-2000, built for comfort and protection under a racing helmet. It pairs thin stretch Nomex for mobility with double-perforated Nomex for breathability, and a seamless, flat-stitched construction minimizes hot spots. A single large eye opening maximizes visibility, and Sparco's X-Cool Silver treatment draws heat from the skin while adding an anti-bacterial effect. One size fits most. This listing is Black.
