I'm in between a M and L for the Stinger. I'm accustomed to the L in Mountain Hardwear Gear. I've heard this jacket runs big compared to other Arc'teryx jackets. I'm 5'10" and 175 with a 41" chest. I would wear a tshirt and gore windstopper fleece underneath I know that this is agreat shell. I just don't want a sloppy looking jacket. Any recommendations?

If you are layering, I would recommend going with the Large.I guess it depends how much you are putting underneath. I'm 5'10 and 170 with a 40.5" chest. I was testing a Marmot Zeus down coat and a Patagonia Down Sweater underneath the Sidewinder SV, AR and Stinger. While the Patagonia Down Sweater fit well under all three shells, the larger Zeus down jacket only fit well under the Stinger - it's definitely a roomier/baggier design. The medium Stinger fits me great - I don't like my jackets baggy, and I think the great fit that I've come to expect of Arcteryx jackets would be lost if I went with a size large.
