Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
Not much to say, a great down jacket that packs down very small, and is very warm. Seems very well made, but I haven't abused it much yet, so we will see.

Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
My review is about urban adventure. I needed a warm jacket for: winter trips to Willow Springs Raceway (can dip into the 10s and 20s overnight); a warm layer under a leather jacket for my morning scooter commute when temps are in the 40s; and just a comfortable jacket for bumming around San Diego on cooler mornings or evenings. This jacket meets those needs. It packs away small, so it works great as a layer that can be shed as it warms up.
Other great touches: sleeves that allow full arm motion without pulling the jacket up my waist (good for the commute or activity); sleeves long enough not to pull away from the wrist with arm movement; elastic wrists that keep out the cold without being uncomfortable.
Clearly a product of a good testing. Bought online clearance with the extra REI discount, a super-duper bargain.

Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
Great Price... Good Fit (I would say it runs a half size small)... worked perfect for me... great top layer or mid layer in colder wetter conditions...
Light weight.. Material is soft and feels thin... But hasn't torn (had for 2 months)

Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
If it's cold outside, this is a fantastic option. Keeps you nice and toasty warm.
Compact and is excellent as a base layer for extreme cold temperatures.
I have even used this jacket bike riding in below freezing single digit temperatures and was roasting.
Very compactible, lightweight, versatile. My favorite thing to grab when it's cold outside.

Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
I recently discovered down jackets after mainly using shells, so when this went to closeout pricing I went for it. I love the warmth to weight ratio, and how small it compresses, it'll definitely save space and weight when traveling. It's a bit on the bulky side when worn under one of my shells, but I still have good range of movement.
I mainly wear it casually on commutes to work or hanging out with friends, so I can't speak to it's performance in extreme weather or highly active scenarios. However, as it has a pretty conservative look and the material has more of a matte finish than others I looked at, it's replaced all my other winter coats.
I do find myself sometimes wishing for more bells and whistles such as a chest pocket or hood, and it could be slightly longer (though I think I just have a long torso), but for the price, fit, and under the radar looks, I'm extremely happy with it

Comments about Marmot Zeus Down Jacket - Men's - 2012 Closeout:
I've had this for a few weeks now, and this is great for cold windy walks. It's incredibly lightweight, feels so delicate/fragile; but once you have it on and wear it for a while, you realize it can take almost anything. Haven't used it in misty weather but I advise having a shell for wet weather days. I'm not saying it's for blizzards, but I'd definitely consider using it as a mid-layer. my only complaint is not enough pockets - I'd like having a chest pocket but for some reason they didn't add it (the half-zip zeus does).
