I have a question about sizing on this jacket.

I'm 5'4" 130# athletic build and normally end up with a small in most companies sizing schemes like my old tnf mountain light (before they sold out!). However, I have a MH Alchemy that I wear a medium and it fits perfect. Perfect athletic cut, but still slightly roomy enough to layer underneath - a bit tight with a 300 weight fleece underneath but it works ok.

Should I be looking at a small or a medium in the monkey man jacket? I would primarily wear either a sweatshirt or heavier polypro underneath it at most and would like to be able to wear the fleece under a shell. Optimally, it would still fit more tailored like my medium sized alchemy shell.

Also, where are these monkey man jackets made? I purchased my alchemy ~4-5 years ago now and it is made in the usa.

Thanks for your questions. I would say that you would probably be most comfortable in a medium. As for where they are made, I will have to check and get back to you. They are made with a Polartec Thermal Pro Fabric which is a US company but I am pretty sure they are made over seas. Hope this info helps!
