I guess it's been a while since I rode something fast.. my Alpinestars one piece is little on the tight side, as I've gained about 15-20lbs since I ordered it. I'm actually wearing it right now to try and stretch it a little, but are there any techniques I can use to loosen it up a bit? It's wearable as is, but a little tight on my arms and back. Fortunately the legs are pretty stretchy. Thanks for any advice.

Go to Ace Hardware and buy Lexol leather conditioner. Put that shit on, then wear the suit for a few hours. Is the suit new? I went through the same thing with my new custom suit this last April.

No, it's a few years old. I haven't worn it at least 3 years.

If it's used, it is prolly all stretched out.

Haha, nah, if anything I'll be gaining another 10-15 over the next few months. I'll just sell er or keep it as my skinny man suit.

Does it feel tight like in the leg and arm seams, or tight like "fat man in a little coat"?
