I am about 5ft.7in and 165lb.my waist is 34.5in,chest is 39in. I usually wear a medium & like a trim athletic fit. I've read the comments & I'm concerned that the medium will be too tight. I plan to use this for winter jogging/areobic activities. I will probably layer under this pull over a light to medium weight base-layer for insulation. Should I get the large or medium?

I'm 5'7 and 160# with 32" waist and wide shoulders and I ordered a large. The sleeves are way too long and it fits a tad loose. But, if I wear anything under it bigger than a tee shirt, like a thick base layer, I need the extra room. So, with a base layer, a large is a good fit for the bike commute or winter trail run. If you just wear a tee under it, then a medium is good.
