I've got this exact jacket and it fits perfectly - I'm pretty lean but I guess if you're just a bit bigger and need the next size up it might seem roomy.

Yes, but then they're not made in sweatshops by 10 year olds and as gear manufacturers go they try to be as ethical as possible with an accountable and transparent supply chain. I'm happy to support that kind of stance if it means buying a few less Quecha jackets from Decathlon that only last a year or two.
The repair service they offer is something that can't be cheap to run either. I'll be taking advantage of that since I'm starting to get some of the filling appear at the seams on the back.
