I am female but looking at buying the men's small sub zero sl. I would usually take a small-medium in womens shirts.
Why? Because the men's version has the front outer pocket and i prefer the overall design.
I am 5'8 and 135lbs.
Just wondering if there are any guy's out there who have bought the small and if you have any comments on how bulky/big in the shoulders the jacket is.

Tara, I bought the XL for my 6'3", 175 lbs body, when normally I buy medium or large (depending on cut). I find the XL on me to be just right since it is usually worn over a lot of other layers. I am a medium build (shoulders aren't that impressive) and I find the XL to fit perfectly without any bulk. I know we're extrapolating here, but I hope this helps to some extent. Good luck.
