I have had a few Arc'teryx jackets now and I thought I'd give this one a shot. It is just like my older Arc'teryx softshell which has held up better and been more durable than my newer jacket. The pockets are placed well, the workmanship is very detailed and everything is sturdy ( no cheap feeling zippers). I am 6'2" at 160lbs and a Medium fits well even with my longer torso and arms. It isn't baggy...which is a big pet peeve of mine. It feels tailored. The only gripe I have is that the draw chord (the strings are threaded through the pockets)pulls from the back.
