    You aren't allowed to buy a fine Italian racing suit such as Dainese. Stick with the generic Jap knock offs like you did with your bike

    Oh just go read the damn size chart and make a decision. You over-thinking bastard...



    You're a euro56... Do you want me to order you something? :

    Same here, and a 54 fits me well. The 56 has a bit too much room.

    I found there to be some variation in their sizing among different style products, so you may want to try the actual item on for sizing.

    I'm not sure 100% on there suits but most Dainese items run small, so a 56 for DBclowns might be what he is looking for.

    I am 6'3 210 and can get in a 56 with some room to spare. I would send your mesurements over to the guys at bimoto.be they will take good care of you, and shipping was fast. But if you are in the area and want to try on my sukhoi feel free.

    In all honesty jim, i need a 48 too. My alpinestar mx-1 jacket is a 46 us and fits great. It seems like the dainese runs a bit small. Lemme kno if you wanna hook up to fit it on.

    It may be... ill have to check. I know my new jacket is a 46/56 and when i got the Sukhio i was a lot heavier, and the last time i tried it on I had a lot of room in it.

    Either way he is welcome to try it on. I can bring it by desgys place saturday.

    I believe if I had a 48 it would be perfect. And you know you are a bit bigger than me. so yes, I'd say 50, but again, you are welcome to try it on.

    Re: fitting Dainese suits

    thanks for letting me try on the suit brendan. the 46 is definately too small, but i think the 48 might be a decient fit after it stretches out
