When starting to ride, I picked up bits and pieces trying to figure out what I liked, didn't like and also bought stuff that I wasn't sure would fit. I've since got myself a good (read more expensive) set of leathers and have a set of textiles so all of this is surplus to requirements and sitting in my wardrobe.
1) Richa 2 Piece Leathers £30 + P&P (wouldn't know where to begin posting these but we can make a try at it!)
Jacket is size 44, I think that this size is chest size in inches, so around about 42/44 should be fine. Has hard armour in forearm/elbow and shoulders and also a soft style back protector. One picture shows the plastic bubble kind of things on the arms have some cracks in them, suppose it's from them being rolled up and packed away. These were actually broken before I got them, they make no difference to the jacket.
Trousers, these, I would say are for a waist of 32 or 34 ish, I say this because they fit me and when buying pants in shops, I always buy those sizes. Hard armour in knee and shin. You can see the elasticated stuff at the top has seen better days and one of the two buttons at the top has bust. Again, this was how I bought them. Some lovely knee sliders on there. The only thing they've scraped are walls when I've been walking. They have a full zip to the jacket.
Because of the hard armour at the knee, they always felt just a bit too short for me, I have a "long" leg, at 6 ft 2, so I think that's the limit really.

2) Hein Gericke Leather Trousers £20 (again + P&P)
I bought these trousers pretty much brand new from the prev. owner. They had barely been worn, I could almost say at all. These are size 32, but I think a 32 waist is the max, they always felt a little tight for me, the elastic at the top. Maybe I didn't wear them enough to break them in? They have almost never been used by me, the white pattern has started to discolour, I'm sure you could clean these up and have pretty much perfect trousers.

3) Hein Gericke PSX Leather Jacket £20 (+P&P)
I wore this one quite a bit. Generally with a pair of jeans. It'll fit 42-44 inch chest. It has soft armour on elbows and shoulder. Has a damp leather smell due to being stored in my old garage. I'd be inclined to pile a bottle of febreeze on it and give it a general clean.

4) Hein Gericke Pro Sports Jacket £15 (+P&P)
This jacket was always too big, I don't know why I bought it in reality. It's a 54 HG size, I'd say this is towards the 44-46 inch chest way but I'm sure there's some size tables knocking around the internet. It has soft padding at the elbows and shoulders. There's a scuff at the belly by the zip, there when I bought it. Slightly yellowed prosports badges on the arms. Again, could do with a big febreeze and general clean.
