Marmot Ama Dablam Down Jacket - Men's

Item #MAR1523 | 22 in Stock

Trying to decide between the Ama Dablam and the Patagonia hooded...

By Ranked #3065 - Men's Down Jackets January 6, 2010

Trying to decide between the Ama Dablam and the Patagonia hooded down sweater. Mostly for in town use in CO, but also as a layer for skiing. Question about warmth, durability, versatility, etc. Others I should look at as well? 6' 200# and the Patagonia large fits well. Thanks, Jim

Honestly, I might have to give the edge to the Ama Dablam. The Marmot is a slimmer fit though, not as boxy as the Patagonia. Not to mention it has more fill = more warmth. However, the Patagonia is going to be more versatile. Its the only thing I have been wearing in Park City this past week, and with a T shirt, it works well. Below 20 degrees, I would suggest a long sleeve or a midlayer (BC powerstretch top or R1) for below 10 degrees
