    Dutch: "A little bit longer than usual"

    I couldn't help grinning at that, as I was sitting here thinking that the jacket is about 4" - 6" too short. The arms look short as well, and I'm one of those blessed with long arms.

    Other than that, it looks nice.
    What works for me, may not work for you - and vice versa

    I’m a “Large Tall” guy. It’s hard to find that size in jackets

    I had the same laugh... it would be a capri length on my arms and not cover my behind at all.

    Because I tightened the elastic of the bottom hem and cuff in the vid on earlier versions of the vid, it did not represent them well. Please look at the pics on the site to show better representation of the length of both.

    Any idea on when you may have medium size available?

    Pit zips AND pockets (with zippers to boot) at 4 ounce? That's excellent...

    I like the shock cord on the cuffs.. something I wish other items had. I fumble with the velcro on my Versalite and would rather it had shock cord.

    My Houdini is 4 ounce and has no pockets, no shock cord cuffs and no pit zips... although if I remember correctly it's an XL.
    Yes, my pack weighs 70lbs, but it's all light weight gear....

    I'm also scratching my head at this size chart. Per this thread @atrane21 is the model in the pictures and is wearing a large with a chest size of 42". I've got a large Houdini, and comparing that size in the argon wind jacket size chart with the Patagonia size chart, it looks like the sleeve is 2 sizes shorter and the chest and waist are 3 sizes larger. Patagonia doesn't specify a hip size.

    Is there something wrong with the size chart? Any chance of getting garment dimensions so we could compare with jackets we've already got?
