I am 5"10 & 178 lbs. Should I go with a Medium or a Large for the PreCip. I like my jackets to be a little more tight fitting so I was leaning towards the Medium. Is that what you would recommend?

I'm actually just about the same size and weight (5'10" and 170 lbs). The Precip isn't really that tight fitting (one reason why it isn't $300) so I would definitely go with the medium. Large would drown you. It's meant to be a layering piece which it does really well for the price. Mine has also been fairly durable. * I second that. I'm 6' 175lbs, and I wear the medium. The length is great, and it's fits well over your base and insulating layers. It's a great price for the perfomance, though it isn't slim fitting. The epitome of "bang for your buck".
