I think I´ll buy the 686 mmilitant jacket, but I dont know which size i should go with. I am ca 180 cm, and I normally wear L or XL. I like it baggy and steezy, but not ridiculous

you could try going to backcountry.com , i think they carry 686 and they always have a sizing chart.

I dont know about jackets, but there pants run kinda big. I got a small, and it is the size of a medium in ski gear.

You want large, I'm 6'1 and the jacket fits perfect, and the pants are huge.

the jackets fit similar to burton in my opinion, and their pants are rediculously huge. i would definetly say large for the jacket for you. i'm 6'3"/1.9m and thats probably the size i would get. I have pretty long arms and last years stuff fit fine.

for what its worth, i have yet to try on this years coats.

go a local shop and try on one of the jackets, most of the sizes fit the same, no matter which model
