Armor sizingjames

I am 5' 9" or so and about 175 lbs. What size should I be in for Dainese safety jacket, vikings and Azonic z-5 armor. I assume a large. I have a fairly long torso and larger upper body. I wear large for shirts and stuff
I'm that same sizeurbanman

i'm also 5'9", maybe a hair taller but only weigh 145lbs. I have ordered a medium shuttle suit on the recomendation of our Dainese rep. He said he is the same size as me, or real close, and likes to wear a medium. The stuff is really flexible, so it expands to fit like a glove. He said he can wear a large, but prefers the secure fit of the medium. I'd say for your weight, a large would be right for you. Try to contact someone else though, cause I'm only going by what I was told, i haven't even tried the stuff on.

I have a large and I'm 5'8"/180. Also went on the word of the Dainese rep. I spoke with. I'd say it would fit someone with a little longer torso even better, spine protector is a tad long, rest of jacket (arms/chest etc.) fit perfect.

Never tried an Azonic or viking(actually never heard of this one).

Lots of shops around carry Azonic armor so you should be able to try the z-5 on. Dainese you have to go word of mouth for now unless you live in Europe or know someone with a Jacket you can try.
