Hi Whistler.

I may be interested. I think I have the right measurements. I am not used to your feet and stones, and what ever else you guys measure in, but I am 174 cm and 75kg. But you are saying the leathers are a bit too large for you?

I live in London, are you ever around here?

If its any help You will have to be slim to fit these I've got same ones in US 46- EURO 56. I'm 5ft,10 and fairly skinny. They were a snug fit on top but legs were baggy although I do have really scrawny legs! I've had mine altered to fit Knox chest and back protector in for racing. In general I've always found alpinestars sizing very small. Eyetyes must be smaller than us but have little man syndrome

Hi Vinc,

I am about 170cm tall and 75kg too So they should be okay for you. I have only one picture how I look like in them.

I said they were slighly loose on me in my opinion (for example on my bum) but only when standing. While I am on the bike then they fit perfectly fine.

As to visiting London, I have a friend down there but not sure when I am gonna be at his next time.

Hi Whistler.

Are these still for sale?

I believe that the 52 euro size is a 42 inch chest UK size..?
