I'm 5'8" 155 lbs. I'm thinking Medium, but sometimes I find Medium jackets to be a little tight. Just wanted to check with some other people for their insights before I bought this online. Thanks in advance.

Im 5'9'' 160 and the medium fits me great. I think the medium would be perfect for you. Hope this helps.

I'm 5'9", 165lbs and the medium fits me nicely with a couple layers midweight underneath. You should be satisfied with the medium. Check the sizing chart, add a medium weight layer and make some measurements, just to be sure.
