Well, sure, you can oversize and get some extra room, and maybe shorten
the arms and legs a bit (if necessary). However, I think the Roadcrafter
is meant to be pretty tight fitting, like leathers; in fact, Riders
Wearhouse talks about the Roadcrafter as an alternative to leathers.
Yes, they've figured out a way to make it easy to get in and out of,
unlike leathers, but size 40 Roadcrafter still a more snug fit than a
size 40 Darien.
I can wear a suit under my Darien with the fleece liner, although it is
a little snug in the arms. Fortunately, since moving to California I
haven't had to bother with any such silliness. :-)
