Motorcycle Leathers

[DJ_Xenobot]

Hey peeps,

So i got my Spada Predator 1 piece leather suit today and tried it on. Everything is fine but.. Its a bit tight...

Im a 35 technically speaking and the smallest they had was a 40 yet that is tight..

Its quite tight on my.. erm... Crotch... and also it pulls down on my shoulders/collar bone quite a bit.. tiny tiny bit of red soreness after 10 mins of wearing..

Will this ware off after a few weeks use?
Will it stretch out?

Thanks for your time..

Is that standing up? I imagine it'll be slightly better crouched over a bike...

That said, it sounds like the chest measurement matches up to a midget.

Yeah standing straight as possible.

But i suppose you are right, being bent over a bike will not be as stressful so i should be okay.

I pick up my cbr600 today so i might get some pics up of me on it and the bike itself.

Cheers.

Leathers do take a while to adjust to your body but they always do.

A leather suit or jacket that feels super tight when you put it for the first time will fit perfectly. If it feels tight, it'll feet comfortably. If it feels perfect on first use, then it'll probably end up being a bit loose.

Also know that leathers, like most materials, are sensitive to heat. If the leathers are cold they'll feel tighter and get looser as time passes with the heat of your body.

So I wouldn't worry about it. Hope this helps.

Yeah after 2 days of riding its loosening up. Thanks!
