Sorry, but there is no substitute for physically trying the items on before you buy.
I bought some one piece leathers a couple of years ago, I followed all the measurement guides given by the manufacturer.
When I went to the shop and tried on the specified size, for my height and weight, I couldn't actually get 'em on, (and I'm nowhere near porky). I had to go two sizes up before they fitted comfortably.
Sizing seems to vary, massively, from brand to brand, if you can't try before you buy, don't buy, IMO! ____________________ "Everybody needs money, that's why they call it money!" |

I grew out of my old 2 piece Arlen Ness suit, so I had to go up a size with my new set.
But what I found was, that being 5ft 6 tall, and only 11 stone, was that I was in the same situation as you, the arms were near 2 inches too long for me on the Spyke one piece that I wanted. But it was cheap so I bought it anyway and took it to a tailor. They shortened the arms for me for around £45 from memory, now it's like a glove
TL:Dr: pay a tailor |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 250 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
