Marmot PreCip Jacket - Men's

Item #MAR1893 | 305 in Stock
1 Star Rating

Most over rated gear ever

By Ranked #2267 - Men's Rain Jackets December 11, 2007

I have a precip that came with the now discontinued Thunder Ridge. This jacket can't keep you dry from the parking lot to the grocery store. It guzzles Nik Wax to no effect.Maybe mine is defective. I bought mine for a winter jacket since the Thunder Ridge comes with a really warm liner, but as far as rain gear goes, my precip is extremely disappointing. And I doubt theres a 90 dollar jacket anywhere that can weather any "nasty storms". Gore-tex can barely keep you dry when things really turn wet. Thats my experience at least.
