Wierd Sizing

By Backcountry.com Employee January 26, 2009

I love my men's subzero and I was really excited to get one for my wife. She is 5'4" and I bought her a small. I expected the torso to be short, but it barely came to her belt line. The arms and torso had a really strange cut. The sleeves are very large where they meet the torso, making it look like she had Senor Stay Puff in a head lock. We checked my jacket, and the arms have a much more athletic cut, as does the body. The sleeves were just shy of being too long, so there's no way to size up to a medium. Great jacket, if you're cut out for it.
