both places recommend a 56 US for the spidi or dainese.

I was going to suggest the same, at least for the Spidi. Dainese Laguna might be a bit loose in some places, but it all comes down to individual differences. I believe I have fairly evenly proportioned legs, and for me the Misano 2 was very loose around the knees, and I would not have been confident that the knee and shin protection would stay where it should in the event of a crash. I remember wondering about what kind of physique that suit was designed for.

Feature wise the dainese laguna seca 4 has a few more options than the spidi warrior. The few hundred $$ difference doesnt bother me much. I tend to lean towards the dainese as there more readily available and so are parts. Spidi stuff in the US does not have big support.

If the dainese gives me a little more knee room that would be great. My right knee already has issues and my astars suit doesnt help it any.

Maybe i'll flip a coin :)
 
Between Spidi and Dainese, I think Dainese will be the least constricting around the knees, but I would also guess that Alpinestars would be better than Spidi in that area.
 
Ordered dainese

For reference, I'm 5'10" and 173 lbs and I am pretty good in the Dainese Mugello size 50 with the back protector. It needs some breaking in, especially the shoulders, but it's fairly comfortable and fits right. I don't like a suit that's too loose in places but obviously it's not good to have one you can't move around while wearing. Plus I think that the airbag protection in the Mugello might be the best.

Hi,

quick one, I would assume you are using the Dainese Mugello R D-Air suit, right? Could you tell me the weight of the suit (Size 50)?

I would appreciate that!

Thanks a mill

My ancient bathroom scale says 13.4 lbs. I have no idea how accurate that is but seems about right.

That's everything but the back protector.
