Got this jacket after lots of shopping around. The L fit great in the body, but the sleeves were a little too short and didn't let me move so well. Upsized to XL, which has longer sleeves and more mobility, however, it's huge in the torso. At first, I was put off by the bulk, but after layering up and filling the pockets with my usual riding stuff, it didn't fit so bad: a little gangster. The coat snapped in to my 686 pants and kept the pow out. There are a ton of pockets, some of which I haven't yet found a use for. Very waterproof and the breathability wasn't bad, although I did get a little condensation all over my iPod. Pit zips were very effective. The zipper in the front which allows access to the inside of the jacket without opening the whole front was a nice feature. Overall a great jacket and backcountry's staff and exchange policy were great. I had to exchange the jacket before a trip to the Canadian Rockies, only had a week, and had the new item 3 days before leaving!
