Marmot Essence Jacket - Men's

Item #MAR0400 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Excellent Performer

By Ranked #706 - Men's Rain Jackets October 18, 2006

I purchased this to provide rain protection while riding motorcycle or bicycle. The jacket does hold some body heat. During a muggy Texas rain shower, it feels stuffy. But don't rely on it for warmth -- only water resistance. The built-in hood has a hook-and-loop strap to secure it when not needed, but it is confusing to use. No instructions were included to explain how to stow the hood; it requires origami fingers to get it out of the way.
