this isnt just alpinestars, its most makes. HG is getting that way, now theyre not made in germany anymore but in vietnamese/philipino sweatshops, im sure they cant understand people can actually get that big!
i think alpinestars quality is great but their sizing/shaping leaves a lot to be desired, i find their gloves dont have enough adjustment on the wrists, they dont realise its possible to have large hands and slim wrists so a quick shake and the glove flies off. and their jackets are as bad for me, they dont even make my size but if they did they think that someone with a XXXL chest would have the same diameter neck and the same length arms and body as a small. they just assume a XXXL is a really fat S that only needs a bigger body, they dont think about proportional sizing. the only manufacturer i know that does is probably aerostitch, i was going to get a suit in the summer but didnt, now the pound sucks so bad i wont bother.
