    Hey y'all, I'm looking for my first one piece suit but I'm a rather scrawny dude and I'm having trouble finding one my size. Anyone got anything that small laying around?

    How tall are you ? Weight?

    I'm 5'7" and 150 lbs, and I wear a size 40/50 (alpinestars) -- I have to compress my chest to get it zipped. I understand other brands may fit differently.

    Oh weird. I have an older Dainese D1 Racing jacket that is a 36/46 and it fits nearly perfect. I've never worn anything by Astars.
    Hell, maybe my weight estimation is incorrect; I don't actually own a scale anymore.

    Some basic measurements to get in the ballpark.

    Chest: 36"
    Waist: 33.5"
    Inseam: 27"
    Outer Leg Length: 34"
    Sleeve: 23"

    Yeah your size is very similar to mine, except 38" chest measurement. Probably within an inch of all your other measurements. I have the Alpinestars Motegi suit (both the 2015 version, and the v2 after I crashed the first one). The chest/torso is the most limiting factor of the suit for me (actually it's tightest on my mid ribcage, not upper chest); the legs on the 40/50 suit are actually a bit long, but still work and tuck into my boots fine. I wear it with a back protector, but not a chest protector; remember those take up some space as well.

    Cool, that makes me feel much more comfortable with risking a 38/48. I still worry that a 40/50 would be loose, but my options have improved greatly! Thanks!
