Good features, short sleeves

As usual with OutdoorResearch the execution, materials, design, features and construction are all excellent. There is one major issue however: the sleeves on the jacket are bafflingly short (see attached photo). In a neutral position with arms at sides the sleeves are about 6cm above my wrist, and in any kind of reaching position the end of sleeves fall nearly mid-way between my elbow and my wrist. Granted, I’m on the slightly taller side (5’11”/181cm) but for a jacket advertised as an active-cut it seems very strange that the jacket fits well overall and yet the sleeves are mysteriously truncated. For reference, I usually wear Mammut and Rab, active/athletic fit jackets in size Small (and Mammut in particular has MUCH more reasonable length sleeves)

OR Guardian II jacket

This is a great lightweight jacket. I bought the previous version in Tomato Red for my wife, and just bought the Guardian II for myself, in LEAD. I was expecting gray. Actually, the color should be called DUSTY MILLER or Silver Fir. It is definitely a light tone of gray-green.
