I'm considering purchasing the snowpocalypse, and have reading some varying reviews about the size. I tried on a DryStein in an XL and it seem to fit accordingly to my needs. However, I am wondering if the Snowpocalypse fits the same as I have seen people say otherwise. I am 5'10" 200lbs and plan on using the jacket for skiing and other alpine activities.

The Drystein seems to have a trimmer fit. Snowpocalypse is more roomy and baggy, but as far as arm length and jacket length they are pretty similar. Hope that helps.
