Marmot Precip Rain Jacket - Waterproof (For Women)

I borrowed a friend's precip jacket for a recent trip to NYC. It was great so I ordered on for myself. This jacket does seem to run smaller than the one I borrowed - maybe a newer version. My friend's Large seemed too big (I usually wear a large) so I ordered the Medium and it's a bit snug.

Bought this to use starting next spring hiking and backpacking. I like because it is light.

My teen is very label-conscious and this Marmot jacket was a complete hit at Christmas! She wore it through Christmas dinner! Thanks!!

Love how lightweight this jacket is. It has excellent waterproof properties. The hood offers good coverage but this is one of those jackets with an awkward hood-rolling set-up. I've seen worse, and better. The fit is a little funny: perfectly fine in arms and upper body, but snug across hips. There's enough room for a couple of layers underneath, well except for across the hips! And it's not very warm for winter, so those layers underneath are necessary.

Jacket's lines are flattering and fits comfortably. Even teenager wears it without protest! Stays dry through downpours. Haven't used on hikes yet, but around campus and at races. While not "breathable" fabric - at this price point, didn't expect it - it is surprisingly comfortable when exercising and you don't feel like you're in a sauna like some less expensive rain jackets.
