hi,
Did the ama dablam jacket is wind proof ?
I am 5.8 feet and 138 lbs, i love long sleeves.
Should i take the small or medium ?
Is it warm enough for staying outside at base camp on a realy cold day in high mountain like hymalaya ?
Did the material is resistant because i am a little rough with my equipment.

Tanks,

i have yet to notice any wind penetrating my ama dablam. the coldest temperature i have worn it in is about 19 degrees fahrenheit. with just 1 layer underneath. put the hood up and your hands in the pockets (i wasn't wearing gloves) and it is pretty warm. the material seems a bit thin, but no rips or anything so far. though i haven't done anything super active in it. i am about 5'10" and 152 lbs and the medium fits me very well. you might consider the small.
