I haven't used these yet, and I probably won't until next winter, so I won't address perfomance. I can say, however, that the fit is rather odd. At 5'8", 190 lbs, 34" waist I would normally be a medium to large. The large Ibex that I tried on was plenty big in the waist but impossibly tight in the thighs, so I had to exchange for an XL which is enormous in the waist.

I bought this for my girlfriend but she chose to exchange it for a different model - this was not warm enough for her. Also, the size chart was misleading: lean and with a 34" bust she is a S. We considered a M (for layering), but her sleeve length (measured from mid-back to where the sleeve should fall on her wrist)is 27-28" and this is far shorter than the 32-33" M sleeve (or even the 30-31" S)as listed in the chart. Marmot customer service confirmed that she is a "S". She received the S and found it tight(no room for another layer)and the sleeves too short.
