By Ranked #4256 - Men's Softshell Jackets December 14, 2008

This jacket looks great - I have the B.C. Rime pullover and I'm really happy with it. That said, there isn't all kinds of room for layering, It's comfortable with one layer, but gets a bit snug after that. I'm 5'9", 170 with a pretty athletic build - smack dab between a M and an L in just about everything. Should I size up to a Large or is the medium cut a bit roomier than the Rime? Ideally I'd like to have a layer or two under there without restricting movement. Thanks.Jed

If you want to layer you will need a large but the arms might be a bit long. I wear the medium and it is a tight fit I am 6'0 at 165 pounds.
