    I am looking at buying a wolf kangaroo 1 piece suit but have heard they are very tight with their measurements. Has anyone on here had any and how do the sizes compare to other makes.

    safest way would be to go find somewhere that sells them and try them on,all manufacturers have slightl differet fits,bit like helmets

    Thought about that, Problem is finding them within a decent distance.

    well it's got to better than buying them off the tinternet,and going off what someone on a forum says,hoping they will fit,but finding his/her idea of a bit longer in the leg,or tight on the shoulders is a little different to what you thought/think.

    woud never buy leathers,or a helmet without trying them on.go try on the different makes of helmet back to back and you'll see what I mean,everyone fits differently.same with leathers.

    I can't say what the fit is like against others as I've only owned one brand of 1-piece leathers but what I can say is the Wolf leathers are excellent. I've had a 1-piece for 8 years now and they are so comfy. Excellent protection both in the usual armour places, but also really good padding in other areas such as hips, thigh, forearm, mid back. Highly recommended.

    I agree with Scooby though, you need to go and try one on first before buying. It may be a trek for you but this is one of the most important pieces of gear you're going to wear, along with a helmet. And it will last if it fits properly.

    Had a set of Wolf Kangaroo for close on 10 years, extremely comfortable and probably easier to wear in than conventional leather. They are a close fitting suit and as normal allow room for a back protector( if you wear one) all in all a fantastic suit
