Marmot Approach Softshell Jacket - Men's
A Good, Light Jacket
By Jason Lucero
Ranked #40 - Men's Softshell Jackets
February 10, 2009
I am 5'9", 200lbs with a 41" chest and the large fits well over a baselayer. I was looking for a light, packable wind/water resistant but breathable jacket for cooler temps and this was just right for me. Note that this jacket is intended for movement. Marmot's website provides more information regarding the intended use of this jacket. Pay attention to the M1, M2 or M3 ratings on the website. The burnish is a inconspicuous tan, well suited for blending in with the Sierra high country. I wanted coloring on this layer that was different from what I already use and would minimize visual impact and I am very pleased.
