Rating for this product: 4 June 3, 2012

Just got this off SteepAndCheap and it's 70/30 poly-wool. I'm 5'10" / 46 short and it fits well in the chest but the sleeves are a good 2-3 inches too long. When it gets to be the season to wear this, I'll put it over a baselayer since it's really too itchy. Don't know if washing will improve that.

trim fit but well made

Definitely a trim cut like other Arc'teryx clothing. I'm 5'10" and take a 46 short sportcoat, and the XL fits similar to a Royal Robbins large shirt: enough room in the shoulders but cut fairly close in the midsection. Looking forward to summer travels with this shirt.

I'm just writing this to note that the width from temple to temple is ~130mm. Native unhelpfully describes this as small/medium fit, which is pretty useless to folks that wear glasses a lot. They're a little snug on me but fit my face very nicely.

Wasn't sure what this would be like when I bought it on SAC - no reviews were up yet - but I am pleasantly surprised. The wool feels awesome. It's comparable to the Smartwool Microweight crew, but the Stoic feels much smoother. And it has a tail and thumbholes too! XL fit me nicely, though the sleeves were a big long (I'm 5'10" - 220 - 46S blazer, so sleeves are :always: too long).

So far, so good...

Mountain Hardwear Hooded Compressor Insulated Jacket - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 October 1, 2009

Just got this and so far I'm pleased. It's early autumn in DC so not really cold enough to need this jacket yet.

As for fit: I'm 5'10" 220# and take a 46S jacket and the XL fits me very nicely. Not too baggy or too tight. It's definitely thinner than other insulating layers I have, but felt pretty good under the MH Exposure II parka. I wouldn't dare wear this jacket by itself though: the 15D looks like it wouldn't take much to tear it, ripstop or not.

The real test will be when I take this up Kilimanjaro next year.
