Marmot ROM Softshell Jacket - Men's
Thin Softshell / Long Fit
By Austin H.
January 8, 2011
Overall impressed with the build quality and the feel of the venting panels. Body material feels thinner than my Stoic softshell by a decent margin.Extremely limited field use (walked around outside where it was pretty cold for a bit), but I wouldn't hesitate to depend on this as my layering for a long tour.Fit is much longer than I expected (I wear L in most jackets, 5'11 and 170lbs with proportional chest/torso size). I fit this L to a L Mountain Hardwear 3L lightweight hardshell jacket and it stuck out below the hardshell by easily 3/4 of an inch.I'm exchanging my L for a M and excited to use it more thoroughly in the mountains.
