troosers to fit my little legs

[Austin]

Shame about the 34" waist as I have BMW Atlantis leather jeans that were a rash ebay purchase - long long long legs - I am 34" legs and these are at least 36" or more. Waist is a 38" though. I put an ad in the sale/wanted forum a few weeks ago. I am still wearing them now though and rather like them but feel like I am wearing some outsize pyjamas. Come complete with the Goretex liner. I am sure the waist could be taken in at a specialist place.

how much would you take for them austin

Chad,

Chad i'm 5'10 in bare feet but only a size 12 (normally thats 5'2-5'6) so nothing is ever long enough so I used to have to clothes either altered or specially made, if you buy from a manufacture normally they will make too any size for free or a few quid extra quite happily...

These days we own all the gear to make clothes ( Brother industrial machine and overlocker) as its part of business to produce teamwear.. talk to the manufactures you could even say your happy to do it as a 'good PR exercise' for the sales dept' and get your pic'y taken kitted out!

for what it's worth i find that Hein Gericke stuff is generally made for the longer rider - i'm guessing that germns must all be a little more statuesque than the rest of the world!

i'm not quite as long as you but i'm still pretty long and have no probs with their stuff!

I've got a similar problem but not as extreme, my problem is that the knee protectors are never in the right place even if I opt for too short a leg.

do you have any contact details janie

Just a note on the roadcrafter suit which I have, brilliant kit and goes on and off in couple of seconds. It is to rider wear what McKinley is to pitching a tent

However me being born with africa in my blood found it not warm enough for the winter. Another english user simply wears a thin jumper over his clothes under the suit and reckons it is fine. I wear a fleece and thin rain jacket from decathlon over the suit and find it just warm enough

They are only waterproof for 30-40 minutes then you will get wet. The suit gets very hot in the summer which I like of course but not everybody is a fan of a sauna on their bike. It is a great suit and I do love it to bits but would definitely advise you to try and borrow one before splashing out $800 on one. Aerostich will make it to size and your measurements.

The ease of getting this suit on and off is probably the only reason why I would wear it untill it is worn out. Looking at the type of material they used it won't be this decade
