So I was searching for a BIFL rainjacket that can do it all (as far as thats possible ofc ;)). Of course I stumbled upon the Patagonia Torrentshell, but when I went to try it on, it felt "saggy" and a bit short on the arms. As I plan to commute by bike, I prefer longer arms.

Is there any rain jacket with a narrower fit, somewhere in the same price range as the Torrentshell?

Edit: i forgot to add, that I life in germany so I am open to european brands as well :)

I will confess that most of my knowledge comes from hiking/backpacking, so arm length isn't often a large concern.

Often mentioned in the same breath as the Torrentshell but generally more adjustable (and by some measures, higher quality):
