Does the length of this jacket differ when going from a L to an XL? MB's website doesnt have measurements from top of collar to bottom of waist, only waist size, arms, inseam etc. I'm 6'4" and about 200lbs, pretty trim and athletic and got the XL. It seems perfect in the arms and lengthwise but quite baggy in the waist area which makes me wonder if I could have sized down to a L which is what I typically wear (pretty much the same concern one of the previous posters voiced) I would be concerned about the L being to short for my torso and in the arms if I were to exchange it...Again, does anyone know if the lengths differ in each the L and XL (from the collar to the bottom of the waist hem)?

I am not sure exactly on this one specifically, but when you gofrom XL to L there is a difference of 1-2 inches on the back, which is the name of the measurement. So it will be a little shorter at the waist. I would say 1 inches shorter roughly on this jacket. Of course you can always snag it and sned it back if it is too short...
