Trying to figure out if I need a size Medium or Small. I'm 6'1" and about 160lbs. Looking to fit 1-2 layers underneath without the jacket being super baggy. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I bought the Sidewinder AR in a Medium (I'm sure the fit is similar), but at 5'9" and 160 lbs I have plenty of room underneath for a couple layers of varying degrees of thickness. I've even gotten so warm I've had to unzip the pit zips. I'd recommend a Medium for you.
