Ok .. first of all - let me start out by saying that of ALL the things I bought got my Rainier Trip, the Marmot Super Hero Jacket was the ONLY item I went back and bought a spare of. After getting it, I was in love. I'm happy to own two. I wear it all the time.
The jacket is comfortable like no one's business. The material is soft, durable, breathable. Never too hot or cold. I took it on my trip and day in and day out, it performed - AND LOOKED GOOD AFTER REPEATED ABUSE.
I'm 5'6" 135lbs. I got the Small and it fits great! Two things - the arms are a tiny tad long. But that just means you can reach up and not move the jacket. The neck is long by design. This is a huge plus because it doubles as a neck gaiter.
This is a picture of me doing some Super Hero stuff in my Super Hero jacket!
