Hiya. I just ordered the Ama Dablam in Forest Green and am disappointed. The green color is super shiny and frankly totally gross looking. It flashy and emeraldy and weird rather than subtle and attractive. The cut of the jacket however feels good. I am curious because several reviewers have stated that the Zeus is not shiny. I just looked on ebay and the 2 jackets listed there (2009 models) are clearly very shiny. Are the older Zeus jackets (2008 and before) not shiny? I must know, because i cant wear this ridiculous green space suit, and must find something instead that doesnt look absurd. Thanks!

Also, I am 6"4 and very thin/lanky with long arms. What would be my size? L? I dont want it to be baggy....

They're shiny. Not Flag-Down-A-Rescue-Plane-SOS shiny but if you're looking for something dull, you won't be happy with it. I'm all for backcountry style but really, how important is color? It's warm and comfy. The large should fit but if you really scrape knuckles, go with the XL.
