    Oops, meant these things ARE designed to fit better on the bike than off.

    Anybody else stock Arlen Ness in the Chicago area.
    Going to be in Chicago Fri until Sunday morning and would like to try on some suits.

    Whatever you do, avoid the Alpinestars CR. Total garbage IMO. Fit makes no sense regardless of body type and the "race hump" feels like someone's elbow between your shoulder blades. The little bit of perforation it has is rendered ineffective by a layer of leather directly behind it. WTF??? The thing was designed by someone who had looked at pictures of other suits and not actually ever ridden in one, if you ask me.

    YMMV

    i don't think so. D-store will have them in stock some time this year.
    Right now they have a 52 there and you can order thru them if you know your size.

    Ok, We don't have anything that will fit you. No I don't work at a shop, we just have a few suits around to try sizing. Stop in the Dainese store this Sunday and get sized up.

    Thanks

    Tell him not to bother, I can't make it Sunday as I have to drive home.
    I was likely going to drop in today instead.
    Thanks for the offer. :thumb:
