<description>Oakley Sethmo Jacket - Men&#x27;s&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hi Seth,&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Just trying to get an idea of the fit/baggyness of this jacket. Can you tell me  what size jacket are you wearing in &#x26;quot;the ordinary Skier&#x26;quot; movie? I&#x26;#39;m very similar in height/weight to you, 155 lbs, 5&#x26;#39;9&#x26;quot;, 33&#x26;quot; waist and 40&#x26;quot; chest. Based on the sizing chart I was thinking Medium, but maybe bordering on a large, would be good to have a visual perspective though.  Thanks heaps!</description>

<title>my soon-to-be 4 yrs old Columbia 3in1 jacket (size S) is still</title>

<description>Mountain Hardwear Snowtastic Jacket - Men&#x27;s&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;my soon-to-be 4 yrs old Columbia 3in1 jacket (size S) is still cool and in excellent condition. however, i prefer a modern thinner and lighter shell. Snowtastic is on the top of my list (followed by Marmot&#x26;#39;s freerider)&#x3C;br /&#x3E;i am about 5&#x26;#39;6&#x26;quot;-5&#x26;#39;7&#x26;quot;, 155lbs. i have a now discontinued MH&#x26;#39;s typhoon rain jacket which is size S. it fits me very well with enough room for a softshell (Marmot&#x26;#39;s threshold jacket which is also large enough for a thin fleece or a couple of tshirts underneath:) i dont like laggish, baggy loose jackets.&#x3C;br /&#x3E;so please help me, can i still stay with size S or should i size up to M? i dont think i will layer up a lot, the Marmot Threshold  at most. bigger chance is i will only wear a compression top and a quickdry gym shirt underneath (like what i did in the past three years, but with a thick colombia jacket)&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;waiting for response and suggestion....</description>

<description>Marmot Freerider Jacket - Men&#x27;s&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;i really like this jacket, it looks sharp. but dont know about the sizing. i have the Threshold softshell in Small, which fits me perfectly with just a T-shirt underneath and there is still room for a not-heavy-weight fleece or similar.(i dont like bulky one). Can anyone confirm if i go with Small on this jacket, will it fit? i am short but not very slim (5&#x26;#39;7, and 155 lbs)</description>

I&#x26;#39;m 6&#x26;quot;2&#x26;#39;, 230 pounds and bought the XXL Mammut Pizol jacket.  It&#x26;#39;s too big and want to return/exchange it.  I&#x26;#39;d hate to exchange it for an XXL Alagna if it is going to fit too big as well.  Any thoughts?</description>

<title>Hi there.

I was linving in google for last few weeks to find</title>

<description>Arc&#x27;teryx Sabre SV Jacket  - Men&#x27;s&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hi there.&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I was linving in google for last few weeks to find out right size and color for this awsome jacket and finally Backcountry&#x26;#39;s offering road rash color in medium, perfect !&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Now I need to match pants and I have few options.  I&#x26;#39;m desperately searching for Sabre pants in Green Light or Squid Ink in medium, but obviously very hard to find one. Alternatively,&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;1) Is Totem pants goes OK with Road Rash Red jacket? Everybody is wearing black(or gresy) pants and I&#x26;#39;m kind of want to look different.&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;2) How Sabre jacket looks with Singray pants? I know that jacket is relaxed fit and pants are athletic fit. Is it going to be awkward looking matching sabre jacket with stingray pants?&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;3) Size : I tried Sabre pants at local shop and medion is my fit but little tight on waist. Should I go for large in Stingray pants?&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I found a good deal for Stingray Totem pants and I can&#x26;#39;t decide if it&#x26;#39;s OK to go with Sabre jacket. Thanks guys.</description>

<description>Oakley Sethmo Jacket - Men&#x27;s&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Is it really too thin? I saw the jacket in a local shop, but just size large, I need a small, but it didn&#x26;#39;t look thin compared to others I&#x26;#39;ve seen as well, TNF, Arcteryx and Patagonia goretex pro-shell 3L. I saw many reviews either here or other places saying that you are gonna rip it easily on the first days if you go off piste of have a bad fall. I thought this 3l goretex pro-shell were supposed to be kinda bomb proof... is is just this one that is bad quality? oakley is supposed to be a high end brand, I have the sethmo fleece and the quality is great, checked the jacket on local shop and doesn&#x26;#39;t look different than the others... I&#x26;#39;m assuming the pants are made using exactly the same material...</description>

The local shop does not have Stingray.&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I read Stingray is more fitted than Sabre. Am I still be safe to go with Medium or need to choose Large for Stingray?</description>
