Title: These jackets Euro race/sport fit or US "forgiving" fit?
Post by: stopintime on June 26, 2010, 10:50:55 AM

I need/want to replace my Euro race/sport fit Rev'It Liteon waterproof jacket.

Do you know if these (US brand?) jacket are "generous" or Euro race/sport fit? True to sizes?

BTW: where do I measure sleeve lengths?

i always read that sleeve length is from the center of the neck to the bottom of the wrist.

most sites will have a sizing chart and diagram for measuring.

or ask the Dianese guy that is on the board.

Thanks Raux,
since posting I saw the video of that Van/Vin Diesel guy at SportbikeTrackGear and it's true to sizing, but not a race snug fit - which suits me fine for a cold/wet jacket. I just needed to know it's not like the ridiculously oversized TourMaster I bought a few years ago.
