Do you recommend a Theta AR or Theta SV for skiing and hiking? Also, I'm 6' tall and weigh 175. The sizing chart suggests a medium or large. Any thoughts? Thanks

I'm 6'2" and 170 and I personally think the large is a little too big. Sure I can fit tons of layers under it but for the weather I see I at most put my Monkey Man under it without a problem...and I usually save that for the realllly cold days. I think the big thing has to do with how wide you are in the shoulders. I am cursed with a narrow frame so a large looks a tad comical on me. Just my 2 cents. I also wish wish wish this jacket had a powder skirt. You'd think it'd be simple to toss in on a $400 jacket.
