The Brand

Sparco

Sparco is an Italian motorsport equipment maker. Sparco S.p.A. has developed and manufactured equipment for racing since 1977, and the group is based in Volpiano, near Turin, with 1,700 employees across fifteen production plants: six in Italy, eight in Tunisia and one in the United States. It counts more than 300 partner teams in series such as Formula 1, the WRC, the WEC and NASCAR, and customers in over a hundred countries. Since 2000 it has also made carbon fibre components for super sports and luxury car makers, and its newer business units cover safety shoes and workwear (Sparco Teamwork), gaming and e-sports (Sparco Gaming) and stadium seating (Sparco Seats). Sparco sums up its identity as safety, performance and design.

At The Drivers HQ we stock Sparco lifestyle pieces, footwear, watches, bags and jackets, online with UK delivery and in our Ilkeston shop. Popular choices include the Monza GP in black suede, the Fortaleza sliders and the Large Backpack Rucksack.

Sparco trainers, boots and sliders

Everyday, not race wear. The footwear we sell comes from Sparco's lifestyle side, so it is made for wearing to the track, the car show or the office, not for driving in competition. Sparco's racing boots and Teamwork safety shoes are separate ranges.

Monza GP. A high-top lace-up in black suede or grey suede, with Sparco pressed into the side, metal eyelets and a rubber sole, red on the grey pair. Sparco calls it a racing-inspired model with a snug fit: choose one size larger than usual, and it is not suitable for wide feet.

Monza Lesmo. A suede ankle boot style trainer made in Italy, with a fabric lining and a rubber sole, in blue or grey.

Fairwood. The Fairwood High Top in tan is from a Fall/Winter collection, with an upper of suede, synthetic material and nylon, hexagon metal eyelets and a rubber sole.

SP-FX. Sparco's chunky trainer in the style of the 80s, from its 2020 collection, with a high cushioned sole and coloured MD Phylon inserts, in white or grey and yellow. It is a standard fit, so wear your usual size.

Fortaleza sliders. One-piece rubber sliders on a 2cm platform with the Sparco name across the strap, in black, blue, red and white.

Brush suede once the dirt is dry and let footwear dry naturally away from heaters. Shop more footwear.

Watches. Each Sparco watch has a quartz movement, a stainless steel case, mineral glass, a date indicator and a silicone strap with a buckle, and is water resistant to 3 atm. The Alain has a 48mm case and a strap moulded like a tyre tread, in red or yellow. The Fernando in yellow is the multifunction model with small sub-dials on a black face in a 48mm case, and the Niki in blue is a multifunction watch with a 46mm case. Take the watch off before washing or detailing the car.

Bags. The Large Backpack Rucksack, in blue or grey, is a 38 x 50 x 20cm travel backpack in 100% polyester with a single main compartment, a laptop and tablet pocket, two zip pockets, zip and buckle fastening, top and side handles and adjustable shoulder straps. The Sports Holdall Bag measures 50 x 28 x 23cm, with two handles, side handles, a detachable adjustable shoulder strap and two inside pockets.
