Hi, just checking my gear in preparation for next season do overalls have any regulations about age etc. I've been using for current ones for about 5 years and they just about still fit
Had to buy new helmet last year so would be nice with no outlay before the season starts for a change
thanks

Can't speak for other disciplines but they're not for speed events.

It is not so much to do with the date, but by the standard. The blue book will tell you.

There is currently no date limitation for suits, and there is only one standard for racing. FIA 8856-2000. Applies for the UK and internationally.

I can't see that changing for a good while.
