Fit is dead on. I wear a XL in alpinestars and XL in icon gloves. I ordered an XL with these and they fit perfect. For the price it is one heck of a deal. In my opinion, its features rival those of gp plus' and other high end gloves. As Anthony said, these gloves are track worthy for sub $100. The finish of the leather and hard pieces look alot better in person.

I bought this jacket for colder weather conditions. I am from AZ where it can be very warm and cold. The jacket does ok during warm weather depending on how well you can tolerate the heat. I would not want to wear this jacket in the middle of the summer during the day. But i did wear it at night when it was still around 98-100 degrees out and it did fine. I had to open the cuffs and let the zipper down some. The jacket feels like it will last a very long time and is well worth the investment if you can save up for one. I do own a mesh jacket to wear during hotter weather.

5'11 32 waist 200lbs 17' in arms
I'm 5'11 32 waist 200lbs but I have 17' in arms which usually seem to not fit most slim-fit jackets. Which size Alpinestars jacket should I wear?
I would go with the 54/44. You will have more room to expand and put a sweater on underneath. If you got with a 52/42 then you will have only enough room for a t-shirt. Depends on what kinds of riding you are wanting to do.

Size for 5'8'' and 160 lbs
What would be de correct size for me? I never had any alpinestars jackets
I am 5'10 140lbs. The size 50/40 fits very well with some room. I would recommend the same size for you since you are a bit shorter and bigger than I am. It might fit snug but if you are worried about not being able to layer up during the winter then go one size up to the 52/42.
