A Few Questions About Leather Pants
I really like the Sedici Monza Leather Pants, mostly because of the price lol But, they're two inches too long. How would that affect armor placement, and would I be able to wear boots comfortably? What do you guys think?

Maybe, depending on the boots but armor will most likely be a bit low on the knee. Maybe someone with those specific pants will know better than I.

One size smaller maybe? Proper fit is somewhat "uncomfortable" to the uninitiated, if you know what I mean. You could always have them altered by a pro.

Hahaha, I heard the same thing from the guys at the Dainese store when I went in to check out one piece race suits. I found out that's not always the case. They said the armor fit me fine, but that if I really wanted to, I could get a lot of slack taken-in by the alterations shop.

I don't think there is a pro in my area, considering the last motorcycle I saw on the road was me. No one rides here unless it's 80°F. I'm special and ride in freezing temperatures lol.
