I guess the idea is that if tight fitting, you'd have a better chance of sliding than the material grabbing and making you roll. OK on the track, but I work on the basis that on the road you'll be at a higher risk of colliding with street furniture than sliding any great distance.
Better to be comfortable and paying attention to the road, than be distracted by having the blood supply to your nads/legs cut off. IMHO. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you. Don't take it personally.

Tight fit is to help armour stay in place.
Prevents flapping.
And it looks better as far as aesthetics are concerned.
Good leathers will not give much due to wear.
The hides are prepared so that wont happen.
You can get tailor made.
Or buy what fits and have a leather tailor adjust.
I have seen some fcuking sights in leather.
Go to a bike show.
I seen a couple that looked like a brown leather suite. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN.
