I always go to NewEnough.com for mail order clothing if I'm dead-sure of my sizes (mostly repeat buys).
Gloves? Held Profi's for me but their little brother, the Steve, seems good too.
Boots? Oxtar Matrix. It is lacking any torsional exoskeleton but is very comfy and plain enough for a street boot (I don't like the boy-racer look). I'm thinking os stepping up to a BMW Touring boot for that exoskeleton. The Sidi Vertebra looks like a serious design but is also a bit flashy on graphics. And I ride in all weather (their Tepor system causes more foot sweat than regular GoreTex).

IMO, if its not good fitting, quality leather then why wear anything at all??? 
It hurts, skin grafts etc. .
Ill fitting gloves are better than none at all, at least they will provide you with some protection.

Sidi Vertigo boots are functional, newenough.com recently had a decent price. i would try them on in a local store first.
gloves, buy with as much plastic protection as you can
back protector?
