Stupid leather question...

I just bought my first set of racing leathers . Problem is, my arms are just a little too big and after a day of sweating inside the jacket and pants it takes a man and small boy to get me out. My arms stick inside!!

Question, would baby powder make it any easier to get out of my sweat soaked leathers?? Anyone have any other suggestions??

You could try it but if your soaked your probabbly going to absorb the powder and your still going to stick. At the same time I think of playing pool. You could always try some chalk if the powder dosent work.

Most people wear compression undergarments for this reason. Underarmor (for one brand example) is great as they make them for hot or cold weather, they fit snug, and allow you to easily slide out of your leathers. You'll find these extremely common with racers who wear tight leathers for this reason.
