If you love a good behind-the-scenes process video as much as I do, then you're in for a treat today. Former BSB racer Taylor Mackenzie still loves to ride as much as he ever did, and he recently took a tour of the REV'IT! Tailortech facility in Italy to get measured and fitted for a new set of custom racing leathers. But rather than snap a few photos and a clip or two to share on his Instagram, he instead brought us all along for the ride with this video.
Now, if you're a person who sews at all, then you may have at least some small idea of what's involved in undertaking a garment as complex as a race suit. It surely helps, in REV'IT!'s case, that it only currently offers three different race suit types through its Tailortech made-to-measure program. While the measurements will of course differ based on each person who's getting a custom suit made, the configuration of the different pieces needed to complete each suit is predetermined by which pattern is being used.
