Well, I made an excuse to take half a day off work today to ride down
to the bike shop (an hour away) where I bought my NH.
They didn't have any UFO jackets in stock but had a few of the Phoenix
5.0.
I tried them on and liked the Phoenix immediately.
Rode home in an XL Silver.
The length is fine.
And since I had bought my NH there they gave me a discount on the
jacket, so it was about the same as Internet price.
