Why We Like The Minimalist Jacket

The Marmot Minimalist Jacket is a dependable rain jacket that we don't mind taking whenever there's a chance of rain. From campsites to football games, the Minimalist gives us GORE-TEX waterproofing in a packable, lightweight construction that keeps out of the way whenever it isn't raining. We also appreciate the ventilation zippers under each arm that give extra airflow when we're hiking.

Tangelo Hardshell

Size Bought:
small
Height:
5' 7"
Weight:
145

I couldn't resist buying a second Marmot Minimalist when I saw the tangelo color. It looks great in person - just the right shade to be sporty and visible on cloudy, rainy days. If it had a 3-layer fabric, it would officially be a hardshell. Its feature set at the price has high value: zippered outer pockets with flaps, pit vents, adjustable hood, 50D face fabric, and Gore-Tex - just what you need in a do-everything rain jacket that is built to last. It has ample room to accommodate insulating and base layers underneath. It joins my blue Minimalist for wind-proof, water-proof, durable weather protection that looks and feels great! And a shout-out to Backcountry.com for speedy deliveries and great customer service!

Simplicity meets usability

Excellent purchase! The jacket is simple and very effective. I don’t like rain jackets that do too much. Just a simple waterproof and breathable outer layer with a great intelligent design.

Perfect, Almost-Everyday Raincoat for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is isn't an exaggeration to say this is a perfect jacket, although nothing can be perfect. I am impressed by the overall quality for the price, the cut, the functionality and the Gore-Text fabric all come together in a well-designed and executed raincoat that has all the functions, such as pockets, arm-pit ventilation, proven breathability of Gore-text, and the super lightweight. I can see myself wearing it in all but the coldest weather when I need heavier layers here in Michigan winter.

A great, understated, and reliable rain jacket.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this jacket for my partner and it performs as expected- a light, minimalistic jacket that keeps out the rain adequately. It's been an unusually rainy summer where I am so it has been tested extensively in a short time.

Fit is good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This replaced my old Marmot Precip jacket The sizing is consistent between the two. FWIW, I have a marmot puffy coat that I wear a Large in, but the medium Minimalist fits PERFECTLY over it. I do wish the jacket packed into the pocket like the Precip, however. 5'-11" 185lbs

Never without mine

I am a female, but love this jacket. I bought one more than 15 years ago, while hiking in North Carolina—and forever since, was my “go-to” hiking jacket—repels water, have “vents”. Mine re-appeared after I ordered another, and I’m not sending it back—the updated hood Is worth it. (But I loved the old color—brighter blue.) Thank you for updating the hat so it doesn’t fall back in wind.
