By Ranked #446 - Men's Technical Shells February 6, 2009

I am seriously considering investing in this jacket. I haven't found one to try on yet. I have 2 questions. I am 6'0" 210 lb and have a muscular frame with very broad shoulders and 38" waist and wear a 44 suit coat with 35" sleeves. I would like to be able to layer up under this shell with a 200 fleece or down sweater. I typically take XL in almost everything, but jackets are always funny. What size would you recommend and how long on me would this jacket be? Are we talking at the crotch, mid thigh, or just above the knees??

I am similar to you in size. I tried one on last night. I'm 6'2" and wear a 42T or 44R with a 36" sleeve, 195lbs. I found the large was fine, even with a shirt and heavy wool sweater on underneath.
