The torrentshell is not a long jacket and it has a slim cut. I like it a lot. Since it is not long, I guess S would work for you without being too baggy. Well, it depends on whether you like jacket to be a little long or just be short.

Hi jac, I'm close to your size, 1.75m with a 36/37 chest, and I wear S in all my technical outerwear. The Torrentshell has a slightly athletic cut, with just enough room to comfortably fit an insulating layer like a midweight fleece. It's not skin-tight but it's not boxy or oversized like comparable TNF or Columbia products. In my experience, you'd be hard-pressed to find a rain jacket or technical shell that is more fitted than this. Luckily, if you do find the S too baggy, Patagonia is one of the few technical outerwear brands that offers men's size XS, though you might have to go directly to their website to find them. http://www.patagonia.com/us/product/patagonia-mens-waterproof-torrentshell-jacket?p=83800-0-722
