Marmot Rain Jacket
I am quite happy with this rain jacket. It is light weight and folds up into a small package. While I have not worn it in a heavy prolonged downpour, it has not leaked during lighter rain episodes. I normally wear a L or XL in jackets, but using the provided size chart, I selected the XXL, which fits well. It would be better if it extended further over the hips, but it is a jacket, so that is to be expected. This model rain jacket was widely advertized on sale, but Amazon's price was the lowest, probably because when I bought it there were few colors left to choose from. I chose the yellow, which is very bright, but I can be easily seen and I am less likely to lose it.I was trapped in Cincinnati about a week ago when the incessant rain
came through. From sprinkles in the evenings, to at one point sheets of
rain coming down that would have soaked me otherwise, the Marmot Precip
jacket that I purchased at Dick's Sporting Goods turned out to be one of
the best investments for the week (and probably well into the future)
that I've made in my wardrobe purchases.
