I want this to look fitted but I'm not sure what size to get. I have a NF Flight Series jacket in a S but it's a bit loose and doesn't look fitted. How true to size is this? I'm 5'4" and 110 pounds. Thanks!

Thanks for your help Jen! I ordered the XS and it's perfect. :)

I am able to wear a long sleeve baselayer as well as one of their TKA 100 Glacier 1/4 zips on the inside with no problems. I do have, however, a 34a bra size so that may determine whether you need to go up based on your bust size. Also remember that Summit Series items are supposed to be more fitted and the hem will not nearly be as long and far as other jackets outside the series. :)

Thanks Jen. Sounds good. According to the sizing chart measurements I should go with a S, so you recommend going a size down? Would there still be room for a thin sweater underneath? Thanks!

I'm 5'4 and 120. Based on height and arm span alone, the small was too big. The XS is great. I generally wear Small with everything else except for this product and some of the thumbholed Flight Series items.
