No way, i finnaly found exactly what i was looking for! anyone else sick and tired of wanting a long jacket but they are all too big and floppy? well the search ends here. Sig fit is awesome, im 5'9, 180 average build and the small fits just like my favorite sweatshirt, fairly tapered but not constricting at all, and not balloning out towards the bottom and middle...its pretty long, sure long enough to keep all that snow out, even when you lift up your arms. Basically it fits like a tall-tee, not a fat-tee like most jackets. Also the radical green color is a lot brighter than pictured, very vibrant. Zipper is a little difficult and usually gets stuck at the top, but the collar is very tall and protective. the hood is very small, no helmet with this thing, those problems arent enough to take away a star tho cuz im so stoked on the perfect fit :-)
