Okay, I just received mine. I am between 5’11” and 6’, 140lbs, and normally wear a medium. I don’t like baggy clothes, but per Riv’s recommendation (and picture of Will wearing one), I sized up to a large. The fit is perfect for wearing on a bike. The ribs keep it fitted, but the sleeves and back are plenty long for not riding up when on the bike (even with drop bars). I love it!
