leathers for the a proper size man?
Now Im not your classic long beard over waist belly biker,
but neither am a rossi? I am a real man (well I play at it) I am 6ft tall, 47" accross the chest, and I have a 39" waist.. Dont get me wrong, I can certainlly afford to loose a few pounds, and its on the cards, but its not going to happen over night...(or more likley this year) I am sick of going to HG or J&S and NOTHING fitting.. Jackets not a problem.. but even there size 60 (eu) (40") trousers dont?? Where the hell can I buy proper size gear as I as much as I like my 40" waist kevelar jeans they are not leathers.... Please help as I darent type large leathers into goofle on my work lap top. Cheers Alex |

Made to order for non cranfield ergonomical people I'm affraid.
My shoulder are pretty broad and I have fairly long arms which makes things really difficult for me when buying anything.
