Default Sizing on a 1 piece suit

I am a 34 waist. Since leather stretches and a riding suit is supposed to act as a "second skin", should i buy a 32 waist suit?

Are you a 34 waist or do you wear size 34 pants? I'm going to guess that your 34" "waist" is not really your waist at all...

most leathers i see are you Euro size.

i wear a 36 pant and i ended up getting a

a size chart i found says a 34/35 waist is a 52. i tried those on ( 2 piece) and they felt good. but i couldn't zip the zipers up for my calfs(sp) ended up getting a 54 pant and 54 jacket.

best thing to do if your going to order it on-line. is go to a store that has what your looking for a try the suits on. i did that with helmets. i wear a "L" with scorpion but a "M" with Shoei

and i did that with my boots. went to cycylegear tried on like 10 different style and sizes and ordered them on line. they couldn't beat newenough.com's price on Sidi's
