Default leather pants

lol well i ordered my pants and got them in, there the alpinestars track leathers. well around my leg area they tight as hell and like 1 inch to long but that could be because i cant pull them up all the way. my question is due to my body (im not fat but not bodybuilder in between, just bulky). i was thinking of returning to get 2 sizes bigger, anyone had this prob and if so am i going in this right area. kinda worried they may be to damn long if i ordered 2 sizes bigger to fit my leg/crotch area and still stay in place when i ride.

leather will stretch. also, consider that they are made to fit comfortable while on the motorcycle.

I've got Alpinestar two piece and myleathers sucked when I got them. They need to break in and when they do you'll love them.

I have Dainese leathers and they were the same way. I thought they were totally the wrong size but they convinced me to break them in and now they're perfect. A size bigger would have ended up sucking later.

They should fit like a glove, but not too tight...beware of the snap in the waist, mine pops unsnapped all the time...fugging irritating if you ask me!

My next pair will be RS-Taichi...
