Well, i'm 6'5" 210lbs. and its hard to find gear that fits me all around. every jacket i've had is long enough in the arms, but is super baggy around my chest and neck. Also, i wear a size 15 shoe and the biggest size riding boot (pretty much track boots) that i'm able to find is a size 14, and they cramp my toes. Does anyone have this same problem and is there anywhere that sells gear for tall skinny people? |

I don't have that problem, I'm short and kinda stocky. I'm pretty sure Aerostich does custom suits, jackets and pants built to your measurements. That's probably you're best bet. |

I've had pretty good luck with Joe Rocket's sizing. I have a Bolt jacket (Buell, but made by JR) and got a JR mesh earlier this season, they both fit pretty well. 6'4", 185ish here (lanky is the word LOL). Ditto the JR pants. They're not as baggy as my fieldsheers. If I find a jacket that nearly fits, but the sleeves are a little short...I get gauntlet gloves and that helps some. Just haven't been able to make myself (my wallet?) go custom yet. Maybe if I did more track days and needed a 1-piece... |

Motoport.com Custom made to your measurements. Get the kevlar. Best protection on track or street. |

You can also get a custom suit or jacket from tiltcustoms.com. As far as the boots - see if you can take a pair to a hockey shop and see if they can stretch the toe for you. |

I am your size juniorkirk. I bought both my Buell jackets in 2X and took them to a taylor and had 6 inches taken out of the waist. That way the arms are long enough and the middle doesnt look like a belly shirt. I have not found pants that fit yet. Alpinestars makes riding boots in size 15. I have a pair. Alpinestars also makes gloves in xxxxl. I also have those. I hope that helps. Good luck |
