LiveLica Level 3 Cut Resistant Kevlar Undersuit for Short Track Speed Skating

The LiveLica Level 3 Cut Resistant Kevlar Undersuit is a protective base layer worn under your race suit, not an outer suit. It puts a full layer of Kevlar cut resistant fabric between you and the ice, so you carry dependable protection into every training session and every race without changing how your speed suit looks or fits.

What an undersuit is for

Short track is raced on tight radius corners at high speed, with sharp blades passing close to the ice and to other skaters. A cut resistant undersuit sits underneath your normal race suit and adds a hidden layer of protection across the body. You keep wearing the race suit you already like on top, and the Kevlar layer does the protecting underneath. Most national federations require cut resistant protection for short track competition, so a proper undersuit is part of racing safely and legally.

Kevlar, level 3 cut resistance

The undersuit is built with Kevlar cut resistant fabric rated at level 3, a high band of cut protection. Kevlar is one of the most trusted cut resistant fibres in the world, and level 3 means the material resists a passing blade far better than an ordinary base layer, lowering the risk of a serious cut.

Built in protection where you need it

Beyond the cut resistant body, the undersuit adds protection and comfort at the points short track skaters load and expose most.

• Warm collar. A higher collar keeps the neck covered and warm on cold rink ice, which matters during long training blocks.
• Knee protection. Reinforcement at the knees for the low, deep corner position that short track demands.
• Ankle protection. Added coverage at the ankles, one of the most exposed areas when blades pass close in the pack.

Fit and sizing

The undersuit is cut close to the body so it layers cleanly under your race suit without bunching or adding bulk. It is offered in a full size run, so the whole club can be kitted out, from junior skaters up to seniors.

• Junior sizes: Jr S, Jr M, Jr L, Jr XL and Jr XXL.
• Senior sizes: S, M and L.

Because it is worn underneath, choose a size that fits snugly against the body. If you are between sizes or buying for a growing skater, message us and we will help you choose.

Who it is for

This undersuit suits any short track skater who trains regularly or races, from club level through to national competition. It is also a sensible first protective layer for a junior moving up from recreational skating into structured short track sessions, where cut resistant protection is expected.

Care

Rinse off ice and grit after sessions, wash gently and dry flat away from direct heat. Treated well, a Kevlar undersuit will last many seasons of hard use. Avoid harsh detergents and tumble drying, which can shorten the life of the protective fibres.
