| I'm 5'11, 200 pounds. I got a large and it fits well. The legs are a little shorter than I'd like but the boot strap keeps them down low enough to have a good seal with my boots. The pants need to be pulled up high to get the inseam up far enough to fit my legs over the seat which is good because it keeps water away from my waist area. The suit is hot to wear in the sun but completely waterproof. The jacket fits nicely and zips up high enough to keep me 100% dry.
I would buy this suit again in the same size but probably a lighter color if it were available - just for the heat. |

| Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it fits well and is compact, which is important. Can't beat the price compared to sporting goods stores vs. the quality. |

| What a great bargain! Incredible quality and features at a steal of a price.
An earlier review suggested to order a larger size than what you normally wear, but that would be too big in my opinion. I'm 5'11' 200lbs so the "Large" size fits great over my chaps and armored jacket; any larger would flap in the wind.
One feature pointed out by my daughter is how reflective the white piping is lining the red stripes - a good safety feature. One tag attached to the jacket says "Reflective material is an industrial fabric composed of wide angle, exposed retroreflective\lenses bonded with a special polymer layer to a durable 100% polyester cloth backing." Whatever ... it seems to work very well.
Not quite sure about the boot straps since I ride with tall boots (another fantastic Leather-Up purchase) so the cuffs sit outside the boots making those straps useless. However strong elastic bands and a zipper on the cuffs make a fairly tight seal.
What really blows me away is the overall quality of the workmanship, especially around the seams. Water doesn't stand a chance getting in due to the flap on the front zipper, drawstring pants, and elastic on all cuffs.
Don't know if I'll ever use the hoodie when riding but maybe if we're stuck out away from the bikes.
Another reviewer berated having only pocket - no big deal. I will always were these over my regular pants anyways. Finally, not mentioned in the description, is an additional layer of heavier nylon in the seat area. This should give many years of wear from those miles sitting on your rear end.
Bottom line is you need to buy this suit! You won't be disappointed. |

| The suit is good quality, but fit was a little big. I ordered a large when I normally wear large/medium shirts and medium pants. I called about exchanging and was questioned about had I worn the suit outside of the house, had I removed the labels, etc... So much for NO RISK, HASSLE FREE, NO RESTOCKING FEES!!!!!!!! I was going to be charged a fee for removing the tags! I was also told that I could not return the suit if it had been worn outside and especially if I had ridden in it. How else are you supposed to tell if something is really going to work for you unless you try it out?!?!? Shipping is also a waiting game....took over 2 weeks for my order to arrive. I was told it was because it was shipping from California, but it took over a week before it ever left the warehouse according to FedEx tracking website. That's a little too long in my opinion. |
