How is this jacket sized? My goal is to be able to use this as a midlayer between a snug fitting softshell and a relaxed-fitting hardshell. I'm 5'10, 165 pounds and my chest measurement is 40" although with baselayers and a softshell already on it is closer to 42"). I'm hoping that this jacket is cut to go over layers and that a medium would work for me.

A medium might work for your but you would be more comfortable in a large. I am 5'9"/150 and wear a large most of the time. The reason is because it is usually in my pack or being worn OVER everything when I am out in the backcountry on cold days or during descents. If you want to wear it under stuff... like I said, a medium might work but I still think you would be more comfortable with a large. Hope this helps.
