Brand sizing

Dainese runs small

Dainese runs small and is built for a slim figure, so size up and lean on their chart, even when it tells you to jump more than one size. The adjusters help you fine-tune once you're in the right base size. If you're curvy, the proportions may fight you, so measure carefully before you commit.

✓True to size for most riders
✓Leather forms to hand shape over time
✓Fits comfortably over a t-shirt or thin base layer in warm weather
✓Side zippers allow adjustment for different torso widths

Watch-outs

!Thumb can run long — consider sizing down for a more fitted feel
!Does not fit under most Dainese jackets — designed primarily as an over-jacket vest
!Runs small for the vest — size up if wearing over anything thicker than a t-shirt
!Run slightly small — size up if between sizes or if your waist is on the larger end
!Runs small — check Dainese size chart carefully; Dainese tends to size small across the line
