Marmot Transit Jacket - Men's - 2007 BCS

I picked this jacket up off SAC for what I believe to be a steal of a price at $89 since it normally retails at $200.

Believe me, this jacket IS worth full price, I just got lucky.

I'm about 6'1-6'2 and approx. 180lbs and the Size Medium fits perfect. Being taller I was worried about the length and almost bought the Large but I'm glad I didn't. It's the perfect length for me, not too short not too tall.

The first day I got it we happened to have massive downfall so I got to test it out instantly. The fully taped seams really keep the water out, it just beads right off the MemBrain material.

It's extremely comfortable, no matter the weather. If its really cold outside you should consider a base layer of some sort, but in my area that's rarely necessary.

I have a comparable (Yet much more expensive) TNF soft shell and this jacket has every single feature that it has, minus the powderskirt, which is a non issue for me, really.

It doesn't have much lining, so it's perfect for those warmer days when you just need to stay dry, yet at the same time it's very breathable, but still keeps you modestly warm.

Not a super light weight, but not too heavy either. It's really a perfect compromise for the way I'll use it. The only complaint I have, however insignificant, is the hood. I have a big head, but it's still huge. Which is great for people wearing a helmet underneath, I don't, but it's really not much of a problem.

Don't hesitate to pick it up, it's an excellent jacket.

This Jacket is pretty awesome overall. The zipper is a bit hard to get latched to start but mine could be defective(not enough to send back). The material on the lining around the neck part is also something to improve upon. I have a beard and the material likes to grab hair and doesn't clean easily. Other than that the jacket is what I wanted. Waterproof and warm, and the hood is huge! Great product!

I go this Jacket for life in Seattle, Wa. wet and cool. so far i like it. it's long enough to wear over a suit, it's does it's job at keeping you dry, and it's fairly good at holding heat. i do feel the inside pockets feel flimsy, and don't have a durable weight to them. The jacket is lightweight, if you are looking for a jacket that is super lightwieght like the precip, this is not it. over all.... a good jacket.

I bought this jacket for city use and I like it a lot. The fit is great (6' tall; 220). When it's cold I wear the Marmot Radiator fleece jacket underneath. I have both jackets in tempest and they look like they were made for each other. Overall, I give this jacket a near perfect rating. My only concern is with the long-term durability of my stubble versus the soft material on the inside of the collar. Otherwise, the soft material feels great.
