Best way to do it is go to places that sell suits, and physically try them on. Or try other peoples suits to give you an idea. I bought a suit off of someone and just had it custom fitted afterwards. ---

Good luck finding any stores that sell pants for the reason that Willy stated above. I used the sizing chart on [bikebandit.com](http://bikebandit.com) and my pants fit perfectly. ---

I got mine done at the Village Cobbler in east aurora. It’s actually a shoe repair shop but the lady seemed to know what she was doing and was incredily helpful. ---

I called a few places, and they said they never stock pants. They told me they could order them for me. I’m just going to order them, if they don’t fit, I will have them tailored. ---

Just follow the sizing chart on sportbike track gear. You just add a number to your waste size and that’s the euro size. It should fit without a problem. Jason and I both used it and it worked for both of us. ---
