Hey guys, I am 5'7" and 150 lbs, and I seem to go anywhere from small to large depending on the brand and type. Would I fit a medium?Can the Alchemy keep you warm from 0-15F if you layer it with a Denali, or Columbia Ballistic fleece jacket? Would I have to go another size bigger to layer? Thanks.

I think you'd fit great into a medium. If you're using a lighter jacket as a layer you should still be fine but if you're going with something a little heavier I'd probably size up to a large. I have monkey arms so I have to buy jackets mostly according to arm length. This jacket will be just fine down in those temps with some layering. Great jacket! You'll really enjoy it.Hope that helps.
