I would give negative stars if I could. I have used this jacket exactly three times--the drought in the northeast US this past summer was no joke, so there was no need to wear it! I put it on last night to walk my dog in the chilly fall rain and noticed my armpits were feeling every gust of wind. As I hadn't ever opened the armpit vents before, I thought it was weird. Maybe they came opened? I went to close them, but they were closed. I wish I was kidding, but it appears as if the armpit vent zippers were never sewn into the jacket in the first place. First and last Marmot purchase. Helly Hansen, I'm sorry I cheated on you.

Great quality gift!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the black jacket for a gift. Really nice quality and great fit. The recipient was very pleased!

Well designed and great for travel

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Size Bought:

XXL

I used the parka during a trip to Manhattan and later on a trip to Machu Picchu, Peru. I purposely bought one size larger so the PreCip Eco Jacket could serve well as an outer layer, with plenty of room to move and breathe while wearing an insulating layer underneath. I had no problems with condensation or with overheating. A most versatile jacket!

Lo volveria a comprar

Aguantan muy bien la lluvia, es ligero y muy comodo

Better than the Rest

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a light weight pack-able jacket for a trip to Costa Rica. After searching many websites, this jacket was by far the best value.

PreCip Review

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really like the jacket. I did anticipate it being slightly thicker. Has been good so far though!

Perfect lightweight jacket for town or hiking

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great lightweight jacket that keeps you dry. Love the fold up hoodie. Pit zips help with heat escape but if you’re pushing hard while hiking, you’ll start to sweat for sure. Breathability is questionable, but hey, it’s a rain jacket.

Don't sleep on this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great jacket! Well made and love the fit. Highly recommend

Lightweight & Reliable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my jacket because it’s so lightweight, reliable. When I need it during hikes, I just grab it out and go. Very substantial coverage for being so thin. The only drawback is the breathability. I get super sweaty after a hot humid thirty minutes, an hour. I don’t see how it could be more breathable other than opening the small ports on the back.

Worth the money!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worked very well for 3-4 years and then the inner lining started peeling off. After that couldn't use it bcoz the peeling would stick to the shirt, skin, etc. Hiwever, till then it was worth the money spent. I want to take this opportunity to ask Marmot to bring back its excellent jeans. I still have 4-5 of them that are 10+ years old!
