Marmot Gravity Jacket - Men's

 (8 customer reviews)

I find that different brands of jackets have different cuts and that Marmot is one that just fits me well.

The things I like about this jacket:

1) Water resistance. Because it rains a lot here, the ability to shed water is very important. Water just beads up on it and after I get under cover I just shake it off or brush the water off with my hands.

2) Wind resistance. It's good against high winds and there's a hem cord I can cinch to pull in the bottom of the jacket to prevent cold air from getting in.

3) Velcro cuffs. Keeps cuffs out of the way when I'm doing stuff.

4) Zipped pockets. Prevents stuff from falling out.

5) Excellent mobility. The fabric was pretty stiff for the first few times I wore it and I was afraid it would stay that way. But after wearing it for a few months the fabric is now quite flexible and soft and I can move easily.

Overall, it's a great jacket. The outer shell is wind/water...Read more

I bought this for cross-country skiing and have been very happy with it. It is very thin and light, yet very warm and windproof. I wear this and a simple columbia fleece vest and am very comfy at 15F - I'm moving of course. It is very movable and seems to deal well with sweat. Also good for jogging in the fall. Has a nice arm pocket for my Garmin 800 and one on the inside for an MP3 player. Only downside is the price.

I bought this jacket as a gift and it is great quality! It is the perfect jacket for spring, fall, and those winter days where you don't need your huge wintercoat but still require some warmth and need to be waterproof!
