Marmot Meta Softshell Jacket - Men's
Not standard marmot quality

Ranked #396 - Men's Softshell Jackets
February 3, 2009
This jacket is not one of the signature marmot pieces. It must have been made in limited quantities for BC. The pit zips are about 5" and lay above the arm material. I have never run into pit zips like this before. I'll be returning it for sure. If you care to disassemble the pit zips and sew it back together it could be a nice jacket. The hood is not helmet compatible which is a let down. It has interesting front zippers (one on top and one on bottom) not sure why this is the case. It is much shorter than any other medium jacket I have purchased (6'2" and 160lbs) but a large would be way too baggy in the stomach/chest. Not a recommended jacket, check out real marmot gear like the king pin or go with arc'teryx.
