Default 1 peice leather suit fit...help!

Just how tight is too tight for these suits? I was trying on a A* 1 peice in the upper range, i forget the model, and it was so tight i had problems zipping it without kind of pinching it to get some sag, and it put alot of pressure down on my shoulders. Basically it forced me into a hunched position with my arms not able to rest on my body; they were kinda penguined a bit...

any insight as to if this is too tight? The body fit seemed perfect...calfs were VERY tight and I needed help getting out of the arm slots due to sweat and stick and tightness.

For an upper level racing specific model is this correct?

Thanks

remember these suits aren't made to be comfortable standing up, i suggest try it on again but get in a riding position and see if its comfortable then

as far as the sweat and such goes that is something that a riding liner suit would take care of or even under armour, i remember the first time i rode without UA and i was stuck in my suit for a good hour, i had to sit by the A/C to cool off enough to get it off

So if you are wearing under armor just get rid of the liner ? it did have a liner in it already, seemed to be part of why it was so hard to get off...liner kept sticking to me.
