I was right in between small and medium for the regular Mica, so I tried the Super Mica in a small and it fits me perfect. It is just cut a little bit longer with a bit more room in the shoulders. The Lithium color is sort of a bright silver-white color that would fit in nicely on the moon if it had a NASA logo. Overall it is very tough to beat the feature set of this jacket and still weigh 7.9 oz.I just wore this for a run in 35 degrees with wet snow falling for about 40 minutes. I was amazed by the breathability of the fabric, it hardly felt different than my windbreaker! The pit-zips aren't even needed!
Update: The abrasion patches on the jacket have started coming off in less than a year. Thats kind of lame so I am planning on returning it. Overall still a good jacket for summer hiking, etc.
