I'm around 5' 10" and 210 lbs. so I'm on the fuller side of things. I have a North Face Apex Bionic Softshell jacket that i wear in a L. Not sure if I need a L or an XL in the sub zero SL. I'll probably wear a baselayer and sweater/shoftshell underneath it. Any suggestions...Also I was wondering if anyone knows if you can purchase the Sub Zero SL and another Mountain Hardware shell and make a 3-in-1 jacket?

Thanks, Alex

opps, forgot to finish my answer, Alex I would definitely go for the XL, I bought the xxl and find it comfortable; however a xl would be a snugger fit. Large is too small and you will feel cramped when layering at your height and weight. Hope this Helps. Cheers; Garyfotographic.com

Hello Alex; I stand at 5'10 207 lbs. I bought the Sub Zero SL just a few months ago before december. I bought the xxl because it was a clearance price and the only one in orange. It fits fine with some extra space for comfortable layering. It is also long enough to cover my bottom too with the draw strings pulled to prevent air form coming up underneath.

I'm 5'10" and 165 pounds - I had to buy the parka version of this jacket in a large to fit over my baselayer/hardshell combination for a Mt. Rainier climb. I'd guess that you would probably want an XL. I don't believe that there is an option to make a 3-in-1 jacket with the Sub Zero.
