landsend.comI'm 5'8" with ~41 inch chest, about 150 lbs, and I'm trying to figure out what size I am for the squall jacket. a lot of reviews say the fit is tighter than previous versions, so I'm wary of buying medium. If I buy large it will probably be too long, but I will also be wearing this jacket over two layers of clothing. Should I go for it?

I can't speak to the squall jacket in particular but i got a primaloft in large, which usually fits me fine at 6'-2", 185, but it was a tent. returned it for a medium and it's just slightly tight at the shoulders.

Can anyone comment on the fit of the squall jacket? I've read that lands end fits are cut for people who aren't in shape.
6'6" 230 here. I've got the squall parka in Tall Medium. Fits great but yeah definitely size down. I'm a Large or X-Large in most brands.
Cant really comment on the parka fit but in general their fit is in line with LL bean, eddie bauer etc. Definitely not slim but varies by the garment.
The fits the same except for the sleeve lengths are long in everything I've ever gotten from them
They usually include exact garment measurements a little down the page (PDF)
Size down
I actually tried on a small Squall jacket in store and it seemed to fit true to size. The reviews note that the jacket is small for its size, meaning that the fit is probably smaller than usual for the brand. I'm 5'9" and 145 lbs, and I really liked it.
