Backcountry.com Stoic eVent Shell - Men's
Depends what you want to use it for

As a technical shell, i.e. skiing or high altitude hiking/mountaineering, you're going to want to order one size up. Even then, I'm not even sure it would be long enough. However, if you're just going to use it as a everyday rain jacket or backcountry shell, I'd say you're pretty golden. It's just as light and more breathable than most normal rain jackets. The material is more durable than other reviews have noted, but I'm not sure how long it would stand up to branches when skiing.
All in all, a really nice looking jacket, but if you're going to tear it up or want to layer heavily, I might look somewhere else.
