    Hi everyone.

    Wondering if anyone is my shape and size and can help me...

    I want to buy a reasonably priced set of all in one leathers but i always have trouble getting anything to fit right ! I am 6'2", 16 1/2 stone with a 50" chest and 34" waist. I have pretty big legs and my Dianese 2 piece fits kind of ok apart from the jeans are so tight i have trouble getting any flexibility when riding and do really want a 1 piece. I know the obvious is to go taylor made but then we are talking big bucks !

    Anyone else out there of similar size and shape to me that has had any joy finding such a thing ?

    Anyone got anything secondhand that may fit for sale ?


    Cheers G

    Made to measure aren't that bad my set of Crowtree leathers were around £800, a top spec alpinestars will cost you more than that!

    Im about 13 1/2 stone and the 54 is tight on the waist that's why I suggested a 56 as your 16 1/2 stone but your only a 34 waist! Best bet is go to a shop and try a few on.
