Backcountry.com Stoic eVent Shell - Men's

Item #BCC0177 | 27 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Nice, but sizing very trim

By Ranked #147 - Men's Technical Shells October 31, 2008

I wear large in pretty much everything, but this jacket's noticeably more snug in the shoulders/chest than other brands (I wear a 43L in a suit jacket). There's no way I could wear even an insulating layer underneath, just a really lightweight base layer.

I'd love to get the XL, even though the sleeves would be marginally too long, but I used a 20% coupon that I won't get in an exchange. Oh well.
