I am 5'11" and 165 lbs. Would a medium or large fit me best? I've tried on various Marmot and North Face jackets with the larges typically being a bit baggy and long in the sleeves.

tbglosis, I'm just wondering what size you ended up getting and how it fits. I'm nearly the same size as you and deciding between the medium and large.

Based on your measurements I would get a large. I think the medium would be a little tight. Good luck!
