Norn Armor issues
I also get clipping issues when my norn holds a shield. Her fists are so strong that they happen to stick through the centre of the shield like a pimple. Happens to multiple skins. Some Hair styles also clip through armor but thats usually given since our hair isn’t effected by gravity. :P
It’s a really frustrating thing, you see Devs saying stuff like this:

And yet the “endgame” dungeon gear can’t even look right on the 2nd most played class.

Shields aren’t great with clipping. Certain female Norn hair styles clip through the shield during movement in a fairly distracting manner. I have a keybind for sheath/un-sheath, because I always have to have the character run with her shield in her hand – never on the back.
I’m especially irritates with the weapon sheathing clipping. Personally if they aren’t going to fix it I’d like to see an option that doesn’t show our weapons when they are sheathed.
I have a fat norn warrior and every “skirt” armor is so large that it clips trough hands. Not to mention 1H weapons: I never saw ’em while sheated.
Now I’m going for WvW badge set since that’s a nice looking “pants” armor.
