Dainese Celebrates Valentino Rossi’s 46th With Exclusive Anniversary Kit

BBG News

In the realm of motor racing, there are few figures as admired as Valentino Rossi. This MotoGP legend is turning 46, a number deeply linked to his storied career, which includes nine world titles, seven premier class championships, and an astounding 115 Grand Prix victories across all categories. His unparalleled career is being honored by the Dainese Group – a longtime ally of Rossi – through a limited edition anniversary kit.

The Soleluna Vale46 Anniversary Kit is a commemorative piece celebrating Rossi’s significant birthday on February 16, 2025. It showcases his distinctive aesthetic through lavish gold accents and striking design elements that acknowledge his remarkable journey. Valentino Rossi inherited the race number #46 from his father, Graziano Rossi, who also used it in the World Championship. In 2022, MotoGP officially retired this number to honor Rossi’s enduring impact on motorcycle racing following his retirement. Over the course of his career, Rossi has captivated fans globally and made MotoGP a popular sport for younger generations.

Despite being designed primarily for off-track use, this exclusive set is an impressive homage to both motorcycle enthusiasts and riders. It includes a custom Dainese Demone GP D-air® 3x kangaroo leather racing suit and a Pista GP RR helmet, which emulate the advanced equipment utilized by top MotoGP racers. The sophisticated designs showcase a bold black and carbon fiber foundation, with splashes of Rossi’s signature electric yellow and intricate gold leaf accents.

The collection consists of 46 sets, which will be accessible to the public only at specific Dainese stores. Each set carries Rossi’s autograph and comes with a certificate of authenticity, showcased in glass cases. Rossi and Dainese plan to donate the first suit from the series (numbered 01/46) to a charity they will select. Additionally, the suits will be offered for sale at Rossi’s retail outlets, VR46, and made available in limited quantities at various museums, racing circuits, and art galleries throughout the year.

The special edition anniversary package, available only for a limited time, stands as an enduring emblem of Rossi’s influence on motor racing, his remarkable accomplishments, and the legendary legacy he leaves for upcoming racers. Take a look at the commemorative anniversary kit in the galleries above.
