Marmot Mountain Down Jacket - Men's
Everything about it rocks...
By Chris W
Ranked #4268 - Men's Down Jackets
November 1, 2005
Extremely light weight (I got a large). It feels like a super comfortable down sleeping bag. The hood closes nicely with plenty of space to see out and it doesn’t pull on my head even when drawn tight. The length, I’m 6'2" and it hits me just past my hips. It’s a cross breed between a jacket and parka which is awesome. One of my favorite features is an internal snap seal “skirt” (sort of like a kayak skirt) which can be snapped around your waist inside the jacket so you don’t have to pull the draw strings shut on the bottom to keep the cold air out (though of course you can if you want...). It fits really well all the way through especially with active movement. I put a pack on and it still feels great with lots of freedom. The re-enforced elbows and shoulders feel like Teflon but more flexible. Lastly, it looks really cool (I got the blue which is a bit darker than the picture presents).
