Ranked #2371 - Men's Softshell Jackets
November 18, 2008
It may look nice but it has some major limitations.
The sleeves are too tight. Layering is almost out of the question. The jacket sleeves drag you shirt sleeves up you arm into a knot making it very uncomfortable.
You have to get a size larger to have it fit in the chest.
Quality is O.K. but nothing compared to Outdoor Research products.
Marmots descriptions of their products is often inaccurate, stating it has pockets that is, in reality , doesn't. And their customer service in a laugh.
