If I wear a small in other NF jackets and want to have a mid-layer under this, should I order this in a Med or Sm? Not sure how they fit. Thanks.

I wear a medium in most regular TNF stuff and a large in most of their summit series gear (like the upcoming Alpine Project Windstopper), and the medium Point Five Jacket is just right on me. Maybe if I were trying to get a Nuptse jacket under it I would want a large, but it fits nicely over a Thunder jacket and a baselayer, which is the most insulation I would normally wear under it. If you needed more warmth during stops you'd throw a big belay parka over the whole lot.

If you're going to have anything bulky under it, go for the Med. If the jackets you have leave enough room for layering, and you won't be wearing down, stick with the Sm
