Marmot Greenland Baffled Down Jacket - Men's

Item #MAR0883 | 4 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Excellent!!!

By Ranked #1675 - Men's Down Jackets January 21, 2008

If you want every gram of weight to go to down insulation instead of fabric and features this is the jacket to get. Design and construction is excellent. The other reviewer who said its mediocre is misunderstanding the intent of the design. He said there is no internal baffle; there is an internal baffle as well as an external one and both brilliantly reversed to keep wind from reaching inside. He talks about the Velcro being too weak for high winds...THIS IS NOT A HARDSHELL. It's not a storm jacket, its deep cold insulation to be worn during static situations like sitting around a campsite during winter temps. I bought it for winter survival in an unexpected forced overnighter while backcountry skiing. It stuffs into an ingenious inner pocket that also protects it during transport. As I said, the best thing about it is all the weight is in the down.
