Hey guys. Looking to get the Wyeast jacket. How does Dakine fit? Smaller than most? Pretty standard? Thanks in advance.

The jacket is a longer cut while being trimmed. This means its more fit than a normal jacket. If you are looking for it to be baggy, you may need to size up.

I'm 6'2 / 150 lbs and this is a Large:



Hand shows my waist line. Fit's snug, not tight but not super baggy.

Trying to sell the one up in the photo as well, if you're looking to save some $$ over a new jacket.

I appreciate the heads up but I'm 5'10 and a little bit more of a stockier build so I don't know if it would fit too well. Looks like it runs pretty long. Thanks anyway, man!
