Does Arc'teryx run big or small?

Arc'teryx fits slightly small. Most people can take their usual size if they're lean, but broader or muscular builds typically size up one, especially in mid-layers and softshells. Arc'teryx is widely described as cutting trim and athletic with long sleeves and hem, so it fits close on average builds and feels tight across the chest and shoulders for stockier wearers; hardshells are the roomiest pieces because they're engineered to layer.
