Fabio Di Giannantonio VR46 Ducati Graffiti Leather Racing Suit

The Fabio Di Giannantonio VR46 Ducati Graffiti Leather Racing Suit is the special-edition street-art livery of the Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team, finished in fluorescent yellow, red, black and sky blue with a US-flag chest panel, a hand-drawn graffiti pattern across the belly, legs and back, checkered-flag artwork, helmet illustrations, the green number 21 on the hip and the DIGGIA name on the tail.

This suit reproduces that design in full-grain cowhide, cut to your own measurements, with CE Level 2 armour at the shoulders, elbows, knees and back. It is a different design from the standard Pertamina Enduro VR46 suit, made for riders who want the loudest livery on the grid.

Armour Specification

Armour is KeepTech, independently tested and certified by Ricotest, European Notified Body No. 0498, Pastrengo, Italy, under EU Regulation 2016/425 as Category II PPE, CE and UKCA marked. Level 2 transmits about 20 kN in the standard impact test against roughly 35 kN for Level 1. Read the full details on the protection and safety page.

Size and Fit

Cut to a close, performance-focused racing fit. Review the full size chart before selecting a standard size, or send your body measurements for the tailor-made option at no extra cost.

A new suit should feel firm standing upright and correct once you are sitting on the bike. Full-grain leather relaxes and moulds to you over the first few rides. Fit is a safety feature, not a preference: a loose suit lets armour migrate off the joint it protects during a crash. Riders wanting more room through the chest, waist or legs should choose a regular or relaxed fit rather than a race fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What armour does this suit use?
CE Level 2 at every position — back to EN 1621-2:2014, and shoulders, elbows, knees and hips to EN 1621-1:2012 — tested and certified by Ricotest, European Notified Body No. 0498, Pastrengo, Italy.

Who is Fabio Di Giannantonio?
Fabio Di Giannantonio, nicknamed Diggia, is an Italian MotoGP rider who races for the Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team with number 49, and the DIGGIA name is on the tail of this suit.

How is this different from the standard Di Giannantonio suit?
The standard suit uses the plain fluorescent yellow, black and red team scheme. This one is the graffiti special edition, with the street-art pattern, US-flag chest panel and checkered-flag artwork. Both are made to measure with the same CE Level 2 armour.

Should I choose cowhide or kangaroo leather?
Kangaroo at 0.8–0.9 mm gives comparable abrasion resistance to cowhide at 1.3–1.4 mm for noticeably less weight, which is why most professional racers use it. Full-grain cowhide is harder wearing over many seasons and costs less.

What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2 armour?
The rating measures how much force passes through the protector in a controlled impact test. Level 2 transmits about 20 kN, Level 1 about 35 kN. Less transmitted force means less energy reaching bone and joint. Every protector in this suit is Level 2.

Should I choose perforated leather?
Perforated leather ventilates far better in heat but slightly reduces abrasion resistance in the perforated panels. Partial perforation — vented chest and leg panels with solid leather over the impact zones — is the usual compromise for hot-weather riding.

What if I am between two standard sizes?
That is the single best reason to send your measurements instead. Standard sizing forces a compromise at the chest, waist or inseam; a suit cut to your figures does not. Full instructions are in the size guide.
