I just picked up this Jacket the other day for an amazing deal. I am more writing this review for people who are looking for size rather than function. Any Gore-Tex jacket from a reputable company will deliver what they promise and this Burton Jacket is no exception. I ordered a size small. I had to go to a store and try it on to make sure before I ordered it. I usually wear a Medium. I am 5ft 10in and 155lbs. The Sig fig is great. I wore it with a fleece pullover and still had room. Yeah I am not a big guy, but this sizing of these jackets are way different than typical jackets. If you like things way oversized, it may not be the size for you if we have comporable stats, but I think there is plently of room and length still. Jacket is light weight and although I have yet to wear it out on the mountain, I feel confident that it will be real waterproof/windproof. I love Burton gear. With my AK Gore-Tex pants I have had for 5 years, I won't see any water seeping in any of my gear. Hope this helps.
