Our Heritage: From Karting Roots to MotoGP Dominance
A Racer’s Vision
Founded in 2003 by former karting champion Luca Venturi, Oxytag began in a small Italian workshop. Frustrated by bulky, ill-fitting gear, Luca handcrafted the first CE-certified karting suit using kangaroo leather and strategic ventilation. By 2006, Oxytag became the go-to brand for national karting champions, renowned for blending safety with agility.
