I tried on the Armas kit yesterday, loved the jacket but on trying the trousers which were size 54 the width area across the front of the crotch seemed quite limited.

They were the right size for me but in a 'bike position' felt really restricted to the point where I think I would struggle to throw my leg over the bike.

I'm a 36 waist and maybe have muscle thighs but it was a cool ride so no python jokes but I was wondering if anyone else has found this?

Same with the Cosmo pants. Only just wearable with the braces set to give the correct position with no chance of hip armour fitting.

Get the vertical position of the pants wrong and yer nads get squeezed in a real nasty way yet the fit around the waste is perfect. It all goes wrong when you put a leg each side of the tank then the crotch tightens.

Somethings wrong with the shape of Rukka pants imo.

If you can stand the pain they're 100% waterproof - unbelievably so.
 
I have decided that the type fit is not for me, which is a shame.
Tried the Streetguard 4 and on Tues intend to try the Klim Badlands Pro
Even though I don't go off road as I think I prefer my BMW Rally over my BMW Comfort Shell.
 
Yep the Armas can definitely be a bit snug!
I found that if I imagine my ex-wife's face is hovering about 3 inches above the seat I seem to be able to find enough stretch to get my boot straight over the top, right through her gob and onto the off side footpeg no problems at all! ;)

Same for me. Tried and purchased a pair in my normal Rukka size at the NEC and seemed ok. Noticed the problem first time I tried to throw a leg over my gsa.

I have gone for the Klim Latitude jacket and trousers which seem to be much more sensible!
