I am trying to buy the jacket "sight unseen" online and have a quick sizing question. I'm 5'11'' and 190, muscular build and will likely layer underneath it for snowboarding and wear as is for backpacking. What size do I want?

Dude get the size L. I am 6'0" and 190 and the Large is awesome. This Mountain Hardware jacket has sleeves that are a tad long (meant for climbing, mountaineering, moving around) but the closure straps at the writst take care of this. The length is perfect and there is enought room for a layer underneath. This jacket is legit! Fights water magically and keeps the wind and chill out! The hood is a little big (meant for a helmet underneath) but when you're not wearing one it can be cinched smaller to work ok. Highly Recommended!
