Marmot Zeus Down Vest - Men's
4 days ago
Both the Guides vest and Zeus vest are 24" center back in size med. The Zeus, however, is 1" longer than the guides in the front and is a bit more fitted. The Guides vest uses a slightly heavier fabric (1.6 oz versus 1.2 oz) I would say go for the XL.

No, this won't zip into any jackets. It use a less bulky coil zip instead of the tooth zipper that is needed for zip in styles. Also, zip in liners tend to be quite short so they will fit inside the shell and often feel a little short when worn by themselves.

Fill weight on the Ama Dablam is 125 grams of 800 fill power down. Center front is 24" and center back is 29.5" and total weight is 18 ozs. With respect to the Fitz Roy Hoody, it a bit of a apples to oranges comparison, as the Ama is designed as an ultralight, packable hoody great for less cold conditions and layering. A better comparison might be to the Marmot Greenland Baffled Jacket which is much, much warmer. (300 grams 800 fill down)

It's probably best to err on the side of having a bag that's a bit too warm than one that's not warm enough. The CWM is an proven bag that's been used on high altitude expeditions around the globe, so if it doesn't keep you warm, nothing will.

Marmot Leadville Softshell Jacket - Men's

I can't comment on the other 2, but having used the Leadville a ton, I can say it offers a great combination of breathablity and weather protection. The windstopper front and back keep the weather out, while the breathable side panels do a great job dumping heat and moisture when you're working hard. I also like how stretchy and lightweight it is. Not the warmest soft shell out there, but it works great for aerobic uses as well as layering.

Marmot Pinnacle Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Down
September 22, 2009
Yes, it can be washed safely and in fact, if you do it right, washing can help rejuvenate the down. First use a high quality down soap like those made by Nikwax and Granger's. Then use a large front loading commercial washing machine, not your home job which has an agitator, which can rip out the baffles. After washing use a large capacity commercial dryer on low or no heat and plan on spending a good portion of the day drying it. As it starts to dry add a couple tennis balls to the dryer to break up the down clumps or just stop every once in a while and pull them a part by hand. When you pull the wet bag from the washer be sure to scoop it up rather than pull as the heavy wet down could tear out a baffle.

Marmot Helium Sleeping Bag: 15 Degree Down
July 10, 2009
All Marmot bags are EN tested. (EN stands for European Norm and is a testing procedure using a heated copper mannequin and 20 sensors to measure heat loss) EN testing for the Helium give these results: a rating of 16.3 F for the lowest temp an average man could have a comfortable night sleep, and a comfort rating of 27 F for an average woman to have a comfortable sleep (women tend to sleep colder than men) So I would say if you are a warm sleeper the Helium should be good down to temps between 16-25 F. If you tend to sleep colder maybe 25-35 F for a comfortable night sleep. Check out the Marmot website for more info on EN testing.
