By Ranked #2515 - Men's Fleece Jackets October 17, 2009

So I have 2 quick questions I'm hoping you guys can answer for me...

1. How does the jacket hold up in rain? I'm hoping to use it for an everyday jacket around town and I want to know if moisture is a problem. I live in Maryland so I'm not getting rained on everyday, but I want to make sure It can stand something.

2. I'm 6' and 180lbs., size 42 suit, thinking Large will be my size but I just want to verify. And I don't want it too snug since I'm not too trim haha.

Thanks!

1. Gore Windstopper is highly water resistant and this jacket will keep you dry as far as perspiration goes. But it is not waterproof and if you planned on being in the rain, I would bring a marmot Precip rain jacket to layer over this. 2. Get an XL, you will increase roominess in the chest and only like 1" in length.
