The Switchback pullover is not flappy.
I am 5'5", 140 lbs, pear-shaped. The medium fits me with a bit of room for underlayers, but I went for the small instead because it fit me like a glove and looked very tailored and sleek on me. I *could* have worn either size, but I have small shoulders and the small one had the shoulders seams in just the right place for me. Also, I only wear their ultra thin merino base layer under it, so I didn't need the extra room for things underneath it. It is by no means loose or flappy, the neck and sleeves are fitted and you could easily slide a jacket over them. It's a very nice thick soft kind of wool weave with a nice texture more like a sweater, not smooth.
I love the Ibex persimmon color in traffic!
