I am looking for a suit but all brands fit differently. even from a 1pcs to a 2pcs. There are no local stores with any good selections of suits to try on. So I will probably order online, also better prices.
For those of you who have suits could you tell me about how tall you are and suit size you guys wear to give me an idea what to order.
Brand would be a big help too. Thanks

I am 5'-8" 155 lbs. Medium built and I have a 2-piece suit A-stars TZ-1.
I went with a size 38 US/48 EUR. The zipper connects the pants & jacket
all the way round.
The reason why I got this size, after shopping & trying out other sizes
@ a local bike accessories/leather shops and finally came down to getting
2 size smaller from my previous jacket (Icon Daytona 42US).
*One thing to remember though, leather does stretch in time to
accomodate your body shape. At first, the size 38 was very tight but
after a few rides with it on, now it fits me perfectly like a glove....
sometimes they seem to be more loose but still snug enough for safety
in any event of a crash.
If you can, try out the jackets/suits at your local bike, leather &
accessories shops and also try on most of the size range that would
fit you. That is what I did and finally made a better decision this way.
Unless you want to fork out for alterations. And YES, you can find way
cheaper prices online or check out "Group Buys".

I am 6'3" 185lbs. I wear a 44 US jacket. My suit size is 44 long. To convert your us size to euro all you have to do is add 10 to your us size.
