hi Dan,i am 6'4" 185lbs and just got an xl and it was huge, especially in the lower body; they definitely run large and are sized to go over multiple layers underneath. but i would think that it would be better to error on the larger side; if you are putting it over multiple layers and have water bottles in the inside pockets that extra room will be appreciated. if you are just using it as a belay parka then i would probably stick with your normal jacket size.hope that helps!
