When I posted the previous thread it was late at night and got lazy (little drunk
) not to put on the gear and take pictures of it. But I did this morning to show you what I was talking about with the jacket size.
So via Revzilla, my sizing should be around 40/50 or 42/52,
but the one I got from a friend (who is very similar in body size, a bit taller) which is size 48/58.
My shoulders are a bit more towards wider spectrum (as I used to do massive lifting back in the days), so the jacket fits pretty well with the upper body. But the area around the waist feels a bit "airy". I thought about two options.
1: Go to a family owned dealer, and MAYBE.... ask them very nicely to swap it out with a smaller size (jacket itself is very clean, BUT highly unlikely).
or
2: Buy a valcro patch and attach to the bottom valcro patch until I can feel it is tight against my body.
any thoughts?
(I bought this because, he has been trying to sell the bike along with the gear due to engagement. So he sold me this jacket (retailing about $480 + tax) along with a helmet ($180 + tax) and a gauntlet leather gloves ($150 + tax) all for $400. About $950 worth of gear, it was a good deal to let go of)
