Large is fine but not generous, medium would have been too tight.
I'm 5'10" and 32" waist and 40" chest, and while the Med fits me better, the sleeves end mid way down my forearms, I've a L that sits in my wardrobe as really it's too big...Might sell it on at some point.
I'm a sweaty giffer when riding & my old Montane Dyno is getting a little tired, I'm blaming this thread for forcing me into ordering a Rab Borealis!
What? How dare you not go with MY suggestion?!
Err. Is it me, or is that your first contribution to the thread?
Is confused.
Rab momentum, front slightly more windproof than a borealis, back a different material much more breathable, I run hot and run in mi e and MTB in it, great top

So do I need one of those Momentum tops as well as my Borealis??
Instead of borealis
Default answer to breathable windproof is Montane Featherlight, no?
The puzzle I have with these more breathable windproofs is that they seem to be rather short of ventilation. My default windproof is a Paramo Enduro which looks like a full-on mountaineering jacket and is very windproof and not that breathable (for something without any coatings or membranes - obviously it’s better than all of them). But it’s got huge pit zips from waist to elbow, a full double-ended zip and wide velcro cuffs, so it’s easy to vent.
I like the idea of a lighter more breathable windproof but obviously there’s little point if it’s no better in warmer conditions but lacks as much protection when it’s colder.

No, I find pertex shells about as breathable as a bin liner.
