Howdy HBP,

Glad you found your way over. 

What size Helds do you wear?  Do you know what size woman's gloves that would be?  I having a difficult time finding gloves that fit properly. 

As soon as I get home I will take a look for you. I have micro little hands and the Helds are the only gloves that have been the right length in the fingers so far. I had a pair of A* before and the fingers were like 3/4" too long. It was super annoying.

I've got TINY hands, and I ot the last pair of Helds at my shop, say size 7S
Just thought that I would pass that along, fit nice, a little long, but I REALLY like them, still trying to get them to soften up a touch.
Oh my, I suppose that means that I will have to ride more......darn!  [laugh]

I have TONS of fieldsheer gear and love it.  The womens sizes actually fit me  -  I am 5'7" and 195 lbs (big boned) and a former swimmer/athlete.  I have broad shoulders and a wide waste.  The womens fieldsheer sizes fit me perfect.  The mens pants I have don't have enough hip space, but it's because they are men's pants.  I have 3 fieldsheer jackets and one pair of pants and I love them!

I bought a Dainese jacket and pants (leather) that zip together. They fit me well. I'm 5'5" and 140 pounds. Okay, I've always been around 140ish, but I'm probably squeaking closer to 150. I should, but won't, give up on the giant burritos and cokes. I like candy too. In fact I had a cow at work today, because our Friday Treats were nasty fruit and yogurt. Everyone knows that Fridays involve donuts. Oops, I'm off topic.

Anyway I really like my leathers and just need to get better gloves. My only really good gloves are heated and the wires are not too comfy.
Is it June yet?

I just ordered a Syed Leathers custom suit today.  Should be here in couple weeks.  Check back for a review.

What about boots?!  I'm having a hard time finding good fitting ones.  Size 7. Really like the safety features & styling of the Sidi B2 but the euro size 39 was too big & can't find (or they dont make?) a 38 - which I'm thinking would be about right.  Pants need to fit inside the boot.   

Any suggestions?!  Thanks!

I have the Sidi vertigos, which is a step up from the B2's. They are a size 37 Euro so you will def be able to get them in your size. The great thing about them is the calf adjusts so you can tighten then to go under jeans or make them bigger to fit leathers in. I love them.

I also have the Sidi Vertigo's in size 37.  So they definately make them small enough.  And as Neenja said the calf adjustment is awesome, but not available in the B2s.   I ordered mine through my dealer.

MotoNation, Sidi's US distributer, shows the B2 availble down to a size 37 in their catalog, but not on the website. Have your local shop call them (motonation) to see if they can special order the 38.

Right, that's actually what kept me from getting the B2's was the lack of calf adjustment.

I'm big on top but average on the bottom. I wear an Alpinestars leather jacket and it accommodates my rack very well. Nice curvy shape too. As for gloves, I would try Racer and Dainese. There's a so-so selection of Dainese women's gloves, but the men's gloves are unisex (the larger sizes are for men), have a wider selection, and go all the way down to Extra Small (Small fits me fine).

I'm what one would call extremely top heavy and I LOVE my PowerTrip jacket.  It fits great and the waist adjusts.  I'm still shopping for pants.

I have Sidi Vertigo Corsas and they expand waaaaay out to accommodate larger calves with leathers.  They also adjust in so that if you've thrown them on under textile pants, they aren't massive.
