Marmot Men's Variant Jacket - Lightweight Waterproof Hiking Jacket for Outdoor Adventures | Perfect for Camping, Trekking & Travel

I am 6'2, 205lbs (lean @ 10% body fat) and this jacket fits me 100% perfectly. It is thin and lightweight. It is extremely flexible, and warm for it's thickness. I have jackets anywhere from thin $50 windbreakers to $300 gortex skiing jackets. This jacket is a great mid-season jacket that is easy to throw on. It doesn't take up a ton of space in your office or in your closet. It can be folded up. It is warmer than a sweater in that it breaks wind and the material is woven much tighter. The zippers are well done with covers so wind doesn't seep through. There are holes to put your thumbs into that helps keep the sleeves below your knuckles, which if you spend a lot of time outside in late fall or early spring, can get chapped easily.The #1 best thing about this jacket is how light weight it is, and how easy it is to move around in it with full flexibility.Hope that helps.While I rarely have the confidence to wear this out and brag about being 'that guy', the guy that wears his outdoor gear to show off that he does outdoorsy stuff, I do sometimes still cause it is such a great coat. Great to throw on to go to the store or to a friends. It is however in outdoor activities this jacket excels. I've worn it on a 12 mile run during which the sun was out and the temp changed maybe 20 degrees throughout and it kept me warm and then didn't get too hot. I've worn it on overnight backpacking trips for which the same temp regulation occured as well. It is very versatile and keeps your temp regulated well.Looks good. Highly visible for biking. Lightwweight. Like the longer sleeve/thumbhole feature and the reasonably tight collar that was better than other jackets I tried on. The thumbhole longer sleeve seems to help keep hands warm even without wearing gloves and comfortable. Need to wear coat over it below 40 or 50° depending on sun, wind, and what activity I'm doing.This is a solid lightweight jacket for the Fall season... As an outer layer itself it's good for cool temperatures but you wouldn't want to wear this by itself in Winter. The other good thing about it though is even though the front has a thin layer of down (or fake down, not sure) it's not bulky at all and makes a nice mid-layer as well. Plus the blue zipper on black is a cool look.The thin jacket works well for a layered warmth. Light weight warm with great mobility while skiing or motorcycle riding.This is a very nice brand, and I found the price on Amazon to be almost half what I had been seeing in the stores on sale..if you are looking into this is because you know the brand and you know what I am talking about.I love this jacket. Marmot is the only company in the space that has not gone for the armchair, non athlete. North Face sold out long ago and even Mountain Hardware is too pop now.Looks great. It's warm, slimming, sleek. I bought this jacket as a gift for Christmas and they absolutely loved it. Buying clothes can be very hit or miss--and this was a big hit.Il prodotto in sé è di qualità più che sufficiente, curato nei materiali e nelle finiture, fa quel che promette purché non ci si aspetti troppo: ho provato ad usarlo come soft shell esterno in ottobre, per un paio di trekking in media quota (1500-2000), ma è risultato inadeguato, alla minima raffica di vento si gelava. Nasce come soft-shell e va usato prevalentemente in questa funzione.Piccolo appunto per il prezzo, non proprio abbordabile, sebbene ci siano prodotti analoghi in tessuti più "tecnici" che possono arrivare a costare anche il triplo.Il prodotto in sé è di qualità più che sufficiente, curato nei materiali e nelle finiture, fa quel che promette purché non ci si aspetti troppo: ho provato ad usarlo come soft shell esterno in ottobre, per un paio di trekking in media quota (1500-2000), ma è risultato inadeguato, alla minima raffica di vento si gelava.

Ich habe die Größe M gekauft und finde sie fällt normal aus. Die verwendeten Materialien bieten einen angenehmen Tragekompfort und die winddichte, isolierte Vorderseite ist an kühlen, windigen Tagen praktisch, ohne dabei den Feuchtigkeitstransport an Armen und Rücken einzuschränken.Kleiner Minuspunkt: die Jacke hat keine Schlaufe zum Aufhängen, die ist jedoch schnell nachgerüstet.Ottima giacca da indossare quando fa freddo. Parte frontale con imbottitura sintetica; maniche, spalle e retro in Polartec Power Stretch (una specie di pile). Provata in inverno, sciando a -10 °C solo con intimo invernale e antivento sopra (la giacca non è antivento). Ricordo che le taglie sono americane, quindi la M mi calza perfettamente (cm183 x 78kg, fisico atletico).Die Jacke ist fehlerlos und schnell eingetroffen. Mein Mann trägt sie ständig und ist sehr zufrieden . Ist warm und auch optisch sehr schön.
