OMP KS-2X Kids' Karting Racing Shoes Black-Yellow (FIA)

OMP KS-2X Kids' Karting Racing Shoes Black-Yellow (FIA)

The OMP KS-2X is a professional karting shoe built for young drivers who take competition seriously. The model meets the FIA 8877-2022 standard, confirmed by the silver homologation plate visible on the upper. The shoes are available in six colourways - this version is finished in dominant black with bold yellow accents.

OMP targets the KS-2X at junior kart racers: the design combines the safety requirements of FIA homologation with features that enhance pedal feel while driving.

Design details

The upper is black, made from a smooth high-resistance material, complemented by contrasting yellow mesh inserts on the sides of the shoe. The front of the upper features a laser-cut perforation pattern that creates a graphic effect in yellow. The OMP logo appears in two places: on the lateral velcro ankle strap and on the rounded toe cap. The model name "KS-2X" is printed on the central section of the upper. Yellow laces contrast against the black background. The sole is two-tone - black and yellow - with a distinct yellow edge trim. The collar around the ankle is finished with a dark, soft binding.

Performance features

• Homologation: FIA 8877-2022 - the current certification allowing competition in FIA-sanctioned karting events.
• Ventilation: mesh inserts and laser-cut perforations in the upper promote airflow during driving.
• Velcro strap: positioned at the ankle and facing inward, reducing the risk of snagging on kart components.
• Tongue and collar: a slim tongue profile and shaped ankle collar provide a secure, precise fit.
• Rear bellows: an elastic rear element improves foot range of motion.
• Sole: two-tone construction increases flexibility and enhances pedal feel.

For the young kart racer

The OMP KS-2X is designed for children and juniors actively competing in karting events where FIA Karting homologation is required. The unisex cut and availability in six colourways make it easy to match the shoes to a suit and helmet. This is kit for a competitor who approaches every practice session and race with full commitment.

Why choose the OMP KS-2X?
