I am new to racing so I need some help. I need some leathers and here are my measurements. I am 5'10" about 250lbs. I am a stocky person with wide shoulders, big butt and I wouldn't consider myself a fatt, fatt person but I could still lose a few pounds. Help me out please...
You'll need to check the size chart for each brand. Here's a link to the Teknic size chart. http://www.teknicgear.com/catalog2.php?page=size_chart&styleid=1#men1_2
I'm 240 and about 5'11. I wear size 54 Teknic. The biggest thing is, I'd say you'll need to almost plan to have the sleeves, pants leg alerted. Also the knee sliders will be in the wrong spot. I'm "normal size" and that's what I had to do. It's little loose without my back protector and it's a little tight with my back protector. I'm planning to get a chest protector sometime, so it's diet time for me.
Save yourself the time and effort and just have Barnicle Bill make you a suit.... Best money I have spent
I am also not suffering from anorexia - try Fieldsheer too, they make nice suits for the big boned. Not as common, but they are out there.
I am 6'4" and ~280. I have been very happy with my 54/64 Alpinestars suit. It fits quite well. My only gripe is that the calves are a little short. It is a bit tight with the back protector on, but only noticable getting in and out of the suit.
6ft 1inch and 225lbs....58 size in Motogp leathers and 60 in alpinstars. I did fit the 58 size alpines...but as I built more chest muscle, they didnt fit in that area.
