Just another data point here. I wear a S in their House jersey and ordered a S Microclimate. With the same House jersey and a baselayer underneath, the Microclimate jacket has a bit too much room all over resulting in some fabric flapping around. I sized down to a XS jacket and it fits great with the same layers.

A little birdy might have made my wishes come true... Sounds like a Micro Climate vest is in the works!

So, they just teased a new version of the magic shell. I have one in medium and while I love it for cold gravel/road rides its waaaay to form-fitting for use on the trail bike. I’ve been looking for something on par with the MS for mountain biking, and subject of the teaser email is “trail magic”. Drops on Thursday. I’m stoked! Anyone have any details?

I picked up a House Jersey - Unicorn and it is a great summer weight jersey. Good fit, looks good (it is my wife's favorite of my jerseys).

I tried to like their bibs, but the cut on them was just not right for me...it was me (total vanity thing) not them. The cut was just so that it perfectly cradled the little bit of belly fat I have....made me look fat....so they had to go.

Super easy to work with...tried a couple sizes to get right...would buy from them again.

I don't know if I got the same email as you, but my email has several pictures and a pretty good description of it... certainly more than a teaser. I actually really like the idea of the zip-in removable Polartec Alpha "vest", and it looks like its got hand warmer pockets, and a hood, so it could swing as a casual wear rain jacket for a lot of locales. I'm assuming its fully seam taped, as the newest(released last week) version of the Magic Shell is.
