Sounds stupid but is there any way i coud possibly "shrink" my leathers in certain places? lol, they're 1 piece rst dyno leathers i'm 6ft 1 and couldn't get the size 44 over my shoulders but the size 46 is a bit slack shoulders down cos apparently i would appear to be slim-ish.

Its not terrible, but i know they're supposed to be tighter, i know they gotta be an all round general fit to cater for people of all shapes n sizes, and its not critical,but is there anything i can do?

The crotch bit however is fine Rolling Eyes

Bugger,lol. Ok Ok i was on a budget and the dyno's were the best deal at £199.99, they must assume people over 6ft are pretty fat! I mean theresa fair bit of excess Shocked

You'll find they do stretch slightly, not hugely though.

Fill the leather out with armour. Also doesn't make you look really skinny either. I just got mine and because of my size (about 6'4) The waist was a little too big and the trouser length. Has shoulder pads, arm pads, back protector and knee pads so it makes the leathers a better fit.

Thumbs Up
