Being an outlier can make it more difficult, but more and more we are seeing tall and short options in motorcycle apparel. We have a new feature on our site that allows you to sort by short and tall sizes. Check it out! ~Ali
Not only was the video helpful but I was amazed when my jacket was delivered the day after I ordered it, literally 24 hours later, you guys are awesome.
Just purchased my very first Dainese Leather Jacket, and I could not be more please. I considered several before choosing the Ducati branded G.Hyper also known as the Hi-Tech. One thing you cannot experience in a video is the wonderful smell of the conditioned leather which combined with the quality, fit and feel make you appreciate spending the extra money on such a fine Italian creation.
Sorry to hear about your spill but happy to hear you didn't get injured. I suggest giving our Gear Geeks a call to go over your options. You have a lot of choices in that price range. For track riding, you will need to find a leather jacket / pant combo that zips together. The Icon Overlord Prime isn't the best option for track, as the pants are boot cut and lack kneesliders. Alpinestars has several options that work great from street to track. ~Ali
I would expect the shortness on the arms for sure, but the textile isn't quite as bad as the leather. Gauntlet gloves FTW! (us tall guys need to stick together) -CK
This is very important. Since there are so many brands out there. not all are the same. But this is really good and good knowledge for many new riders, and or old riders. "You never stop learning as long as your breathing."
I'm about your size and wear size 50 in most Euro jackets. If you can find a 48 that fits in the sleeves, that might be a better bet. I'm 6'4", so size 48 is pretty much always too short for me. -CK
Thanks, AMDGuy64! Upload a picture if you can with your review, I'm curious to see how the sleeves look. If I have my way this summer, I intend to pick one of these up for personal use. -CK
thats the best video i found,great explanations,thanks i need to buy a kit:pants and touring vest. i am riding trails and sometime road , your video help me a lot for my choice, now i must check for the pants. Scott Scorpion Commander 2 seems right for me . Again thanks Gervais Riviere Bleue,Quebec
Absolutely brilliant guide mate! Thanks for the extremely useful information Anthony! In particular that sleeve measurements in the 20s are taken from the point of the shoulder while those in the 30s are taken from the bottom of the neck, centre of the spine. I’m buying a Brando style classic jacket online and this will be a great help. Thanks too for the unintentional laugh. When you talk about having such broad shoulders, the look Peter gives you is hilarious! (6:58)
i dont ride motorcycles but i really like the way these types of jackets feel when wearing them and ive been searching all over for a nice one and after seeing AVG Sport breeze and reading the reviews i think i might pick one up soon.
Dear Americans. If you want to look as good as we Euros in our Euro Jackets, then just know that they are tighter, so don't do the mistake to buy it too big, because then elbow protection for instance is too far down and does not protect you. Remember, most EU Motorcycle Jackets are styled/designed and many even made in Italy, where bike fashion is just as important as riding your bike. So basically, sit on a chair or on your bike, get your arms in the position to hold the handlebar, feel your elbow protection with one hand while arm is stretched holding the bar. If the elbow protection is at the right place and if your neck isn't being squashed (feeling snug), then you are fine IF you do not have too much pressure on your shoulders. So here it is: 1. Elbow protection in elbow position with stretched arms 2. Jacket not tight on neck 3. Not too much pressure on shoulders (a tiny bit of pressure is fine if you have shoulder armor). Congratulations, you are now a bit more European, Make Europe Great again !
Choosing the correct size is everything. For example, the guy who talks really fast made a comment in the Delta Pro C2 video about waist size, saying a persons size in jeans may not be the same as in Dainese leather pants, This is very Important. I like my T-Shirts to be size Large, which is typically a 42. However when it comes to racing leathers they need to fit snug. So if your chest measurement is a 40, then buy the correct size. I do NOT recommend buying a slightly larger size because you feel you need room to move, you might regret it as these are Leather Jackets designed for Motorcycle riding, and not for show. They need to fit snug and will conform to your body over time. so I suggest always start with a snug fit. As recommended in this video.
I have recently ordered a custom sized jacket by damen leathers (make dutch police suits), i had on one of there normal jackets that was not exactly suited for me, main problem was super tight around the upper arms. I also found out that the problem that guy on adv rider had could have been the length of the shoulder, if its tight around your upper arms have a go at folding the shoulder part in, seems weird but it felt a lot better for me :)
Solid video. I've had this jacket for over two months It's a stiff fit at first, but now it's truly fit to my body and an absolutely awesome jacket. I feel well protected while riding it. One that note, I have a few questions: 1) Would you suggest the Dainese Manis D1 G pack protector the best fit/protection for this jacket? Chest pads? Would that also fit the Dainese Stream Line D-Dry? 2) What jacket cleaner do you suggest? The white is getting dirty. Thank you!
You wrote this comment on our general _How to Measure Motorcycle Jacket Size_ video, so I'm not exactly which jacket you were considering. Would you be able to let me know that specific jacket? -DrewZilla
RevZilla would the back protector fit both the Dainese Super Speed Textile and the Streamline D-Dry. And looking for suggested cleaner for the white on the textile jacket. Thanks.
Yes, the Manis D1 G fits both jackets. The chest pads are also a good addition. As for a cleaner, I recommend using Nikwax Tech Wash. It's available from us as well as from most outdoor retailers like REI, Cabela's, etc. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/nikwax-tech-wash
Too funny man...watched many of your vids. bought tires and jackets. first time I have actually come to youtube though so Painful may be a good marketing deal LOL...
Hello! I'm looking to buy Dainese Racing 3 Perforated leather jacket. I'm 170 lbs, 6' height, 39" chest and 24.4" arm. What size should I buy? Regular or tall sizing for this jacket? In my opinion 50(tall) is my size for this jacket. I'm right? Thanks!
I got a medium, it fits nice and snug but when I’m in riding position the chest area has room and pops up a bit, the shoulder pads and elbow bass stay perfect, snug around the waste. Think this size is good? I feel a small would be too small
I'm 6'2" 160 37" chest my arms 26" waist is 28" & hips 33 I have a size 52 gt -air it bunches up in the chest on my bike but the sleeves fit I'm getting a jaws leather & I want that "aggressive" fit, What size do the tech geeks recommend ?
Nolan Gaudreau It depends on each jacket. Some jackets run big, while some run small. If you're looking at a specific jacket, feel free to reach out to our Gear Geeks at 877-792-9455 or cs@revzilla.com for sizing help. -DrewZilla
What is the ideal sleeve length, where should the end of the sleeve reach on the hand, for a more relaxed fitted leather like the Schott 141 for example, when bought brand new (Im unsure how the sleeve length will be affected over time with breaking in etc? Thanks
Hey Antony what's up i recently took a 80 mph spill and i was wearing the Overlord Prime Hero jacket and pants. The crash shredded both but saved my butt and i came out of it without a scratch. I'm looking for replacement gear what do you recommend for me? I do a lot of aggressive street riding and a few track days. I'm also looking for something that's similar to the overlord prime hero that is a 2piece but can be made to a one piece for track days. Lastly i'm looking to spend $1000-$2000-max.
I realize that the majority of your clothing is aimed towards the sport bike owners and maybe that's why my question may not be much of a factor. I'm on the tall side 6'2" - 220 lbs. I ride a cruiser style bike and while shopping I have to consider I have a long torso and long arms. I usually find a jacket that fits perfectly, until I sit on my bike and reach for the bars. The sleeves wind up looking like a baseball jersey. In leather I found that most jackets have a relief cut on the back side of the shoulders to help with the big guy in a little coat look. After many days shopping and trying on everything I finally found one with the relief cuts and extended sleeves. Now when I ride the sleeves end right at the end of the wrist like you show in the sizing video. My only problem is that the jacket I have is good for spring and fall but way too hot for summer riding. Do you have a selection of breathable fabric riding jacket that offers some protection while not cooking me like the rain gear would? I wish manufacturers would consider at least offering longer sleeve jackets for those of us who ride a more laid back bike. Excellent videos by the way. Very detailed and informative. Keep up the good work.. PS. I love the look you get when you say you wear the same size bot mostly because you have broad shoulders lol
I highly recommend taking a look at our How To guide for big/tall gear. Here are some recommendations in tall sizes as well. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/common-tread/how-to-buy-big-and-tall-motorcycle-gear *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/joe-rocket-phoenix-ion-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/firstgear-mesh-tex-jacket
Jacob Buffington For a sport jacket, it should be shorter in the front, so that it doesn't bunch up in the 3/4 to full tuck riding position. Jackets for more upright bikes (H-D, cruisers, ADV, standards) tend to be longer in the torso for better coverage in the upright riding position. -DrewZilla
That will vary from Jacket to Jacket and Brand to Brand. You will need to get more precise measuring as well, and use those measurements with the sizing charts provided by each brand. If you need more help: www.revzilla.com/customer-service
Without your chest measurement, it's really difficult to make an accurate recommendation. Try to find a cloth tape measure if you can. For brands that would fit your size, you'd want a European brand such as Dainese. Use the size chart on a jacket's product page for more sizing details. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/dainese-jackets
It really depends on the specific jacket. Some jackets run large, while others run small. If we have a video review for the jacket, we generally try to let you know how the sizing is. -DrewZilla
It depends on the specific jacket, as different brands have different sizing. This video is a general guide. Would mind letting us know which one you're considering? -DrewZilla
Do you have any leather jacket recommendations for me? 50" waist, 54" chest. I'm struggling to find anything that will fit my waist properly in leather :( Thanks!
I recommend the Icon Hypersport, Hypersport Prime, and Motorhead 2 Jackets in 4XL. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/icon-hypersport-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/icon-hypersport-prime-jacket *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/icon-motorhead-2-jacket

That really depends on the type of riding you do. In general, take a look at the European brands for a slim fit: Dainese, Alpinestars, and REV'IT!. You would likely be size EU54, EU56, or size XL for most jackets from those brands. For sizing details on specific jacket models, you can send our Gear Geeks an email at cs@revzilla.com or use live chat on our site. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/dainese-jackets *www.revzilla.com/alpinestars-jackets *www.revzilla.com/revit-jackets
For the best balance of quality and price, I'd say the REV'IT! Airwave 2 is the best summer jacket. Feel free to look at our full mesh jacket guide for more picks though. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/revit-airwave-2-jacket *www.revzilla.com/2016-best-mesh-motorcycle-jacket-buyers-guide

There are some jackets in tall sizes, but most of them aren't slim enough. For a specifically slim and tall jacket, there's the Dainese Tempest D-Dry in size 50 Tall. It still might be a little big though. In general, look at the brand Spidi, as their regular sizes tend to be slim and tall. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-tempest-d-dry-jacket *www.revzilla.com/spidi-jackets

Jacket size will depend almost entirely upon your chest measurement. Think of it like pants and a waist measurement-- without that you can't know what your size would be. Get some numbers and have a look at a specific jacket's size chart to see where you'd fall. -Kraus-e
US sizes roughly correspond to a chest measurement (38, 40, 42, etc.) and European sizes are +10 (48, 50, 52, etc.) That's not a hard and fast rule though, just take your measurement and see what the size chart says. -Kraus-e

What jacket did you go with? -Hi-Viz Brian
I needed an affordable summer jacket so I went with the AGV Solare. Great jacket tons of air flow and enough protection for riding the back roads.
Just purchased my very first Dainese Leather Jacket, and I could not be
more please. I considered several before choosing the Ducati branded
G.Hyper also known as the Hi-Tech. One thing you cannot experience in a

with the quality, fit and feel make you appreciate spending the extra

Should the jacket hit just above whare ur pans end or go further like to your belt line
Jacob Buffington For a sport jacket, it should be shorter in the front, so that it doesn't bunch up in the 3/4 to full tuck riding position. Jackets for more upright bikes (H-D, cruisers, ADV, standards) tend to be longer in the torso for better coverage in the upright riding position. -DrewZilla
I about lost it at "Pain full fast and cheep"

Without your chest measurement, it's really difficult to make an accurate recommendation. Try to find a cloth tape measure if you can. For brands that would fit your size, you'd want a European brand such as Dainese. Use the size chart on a jacket's product page for more sizing details. -DrewZilla

If I'm between sizes, like 94.5cm (S) and 102cm (M), do I go up or down a size? I'm 98cm at the chest.

For the best balance of quality and price, I'd say the REV'IT! Airwave 2 is the best summer jacket. Feel free to look at our full mesh jacket guide for more picks though. -DrewZilla

could you wear a jacket under this in the winter?
To which product are you referring? -DrewZilla
RevZilla oh yeah commented on the wrong video the fly coolpro jacket
You would likely be able to wear a warm mid-layer under the Fly Coolpro but not a thick jacket. -DrewZilla
Peter is like dude im so high
The struggle... Im 6'0 but I'm only a 130lbs, what size would y'all suggests for a tall slim skinny dude
There are some jackets in tall sizes, but most of them aren't slim enough. For a specifically slim and tall jacket, there's the Dainese Tempest D-Dry in size 50 Tall. It still might be a little big though. In general, look at the brand Spidi, as their regular sizes tend to be slim and tall. -DrewZilla

I'm buying motorcycle gear, the last thing I want is for it to be painful! 😂
peter is really pissed.peter wants to ride!!!!
I am 5'11' and 80 kilos athletic body... what size should i get?
Jacket size will depend almost entirely upon your chest measurement. Think of it like pants and a waist measurement-- without that you can't know what your size would be. Get some numbers and have a look at a specific jacket's size chart to see where you'd fall. -Kraus-e
+RevZilla Ok man thanks... 😀
You're welcome!
So measure your chest and add 10"?
US sizes roughly correspond to a chest measurement (38, 40, 42, etc.) and European sizes are +10 (48, 50, 52, etc.) That's not a hard and fast rule though, just take your measurement and see what the size chart says. -Kraus-e
i still hate how when you measure u still may have a wrong size ugh
"but only because I have broad shoulders"
Peter:
At least it's not painful and slow.
it so sucks being tall and skinny with clothes ._.
Leather is crap and not durable. Full Kevlar or Dyneema is best which is also knife attack and bullet resistant, lightweight

Take a look at our Big & Tall Sizing Guide for more details. -DrewZilla
