I am thinking about buying 686 Men's Mannual Esse Jacket because it is the cheapest yellow jacket I can find. I was wondering if anybody knows how durable these jackets are and the sizing. I am 6'0 140lbs I dont want it super baggy I was thinking a large. any information is appreciated. +karma

i'm 6'2 and my large fits baggy on me so you'll be okay. If i didn't buy it two years ago i'd get an XL but its all about what you want. As for quality its what you'd expect, good but not amazing.

I have a 686 Smarty jacket and I'm 5'11 and wear a large. It's a bit big but not too big. However it is stupidly heavy. I ordered off of backcountryoulet.com and the package it came in was 7lbs!
