This jacket is an essential part of my wardrobe. I bought one about 5 years ago thinking I might use it occasionally. I was sure wrong. I wear it all the time. I take this jacket with me everywhere, and I wear it more than any other jacket in my wardrobe. It stuffs so small that there is no reason not to take it. I use it for running, cycling, hiking, camping, and any time it gets a bit chilly or windy. My older one is probably from 2004 or so and is an XS. I just ordered a new one from Backcountry in another color, and in the new 2009 model I wear a small, so it seems they changed their sizing in the past few years. My normal size is a small, so go with the size you normally wear. I highly recommend this jacket. It's worth every penny!
