The REI Member Dividend
The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.
Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.
Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Comments about Marmot E Line Jacket - Men's:
This jacket completely exceeded my expectations. Quality of construction is great. All zippers work smooth, stitching is straight and the selection of materials is top notch. The jacket has a bit of stretch in the shell material, so it is very comfortable to wear. Fleece lining in the pockets is very warm. It is reasonably wind resistant and the water resistance surprised me. Light mist or rain easily beads up and rolls off. Moderate to heavy rain will eventually wet out the garment. But this isn't rain gear and that's not why I bought it. I wore it in a heavy downpour for about 200 yds from my car to the building. The shoulders and top of the hood were slightly wetted out, but the inside of the jacket was still dry. I hung the jacket up in my cubicle and checked it 30 minutes later - it was dry. Oh, and I love the lack of elastic in the cuffs. Easy on and off - no grabbing my clothes underneath as I take the jacket off.
The jacket is warm for its weight, but it has very little insulation, so don't expect it to be very warm on cold days. Best layered over a fleece or wicking layer if it is cold out.
Read some comments about the fit being slim, but that is not my experience. I'm 6'2", 200 lbs, average build, and the XL fits me great. I can easily layer a fleece under it without feeling restricted.
If you care about this (I don't really) - I have gotten several comments from folks I didn't know telling me they thought my jacket was nice. Most recently in line at the grocery store. Guess it is good looking (since I know it isn't me!).

Comments about Marmot E Line Jacket - Men's:
I've had this jacket for about four months and bought it to replace my north face which got stolen. So far I've used it around the house, at cabins, while camping in the Rockies, camping in West VA, and in hard rain. This jacket can take just about anything within reason and it still looks like new. It's not very warm because it's not meant to be, but is extremly water proof. My only complaint about it is the front gets this weird wrinkle that's hard to get out cause of sitting. If you can get past the price it's an awesome light, and versatile jacket.

Comments about Marmot E Line Jacket - Men's:
Marmot advertises this jacket as a casual, urban jacket. This is because it's not as waterproof as their other lines of rain gear, and a bit heavier/thicker. I have taken it backpacking with me many times, and it has performed great in the rain. It's never soaked through, though the felt inside can collect a bit of sweat if you're using it during strenuous activity. Before I took it out, I ran the jacket under the tap for a couple minutes, and no water soaked through, so felt confident in taking it into the wild with me.
Before I took it backpacking, I treated it with Nikiwax Softshell Waterproofer, just in case. The jacket is very handsome, and it stretches which I found very handy while trekking. It served me well in ocean mists, heavy winds, and occasional heavy showers. However, I would take it out in places that might receive all day showers like Alaska or Olympic NP. For that, I'd use one of Marmot's more heavy duty lines of rain gear.
But if you're going out backpacking and not expecting much rain, or just traveling around the city, the Marmot E-Line jacket is a good option because it's breathable and stretchy, so you won't get soaked from your own sweat or accidentally tear the fabric like you might with a less stretchy nylon.

Comments about Marmot E Line Jacket - Men's:
This is my favorite casual jacket. It is both functional, versatile, and stylish. I can wear it to work or on a casual date, yet it is very functional. It has a lot of pockets, both inside and out, yet the jacket doesn't feel bulky. The material is water resistant, so it works well if you just need to walk to/from your car in the rain while keeping you dry. Just don't expect it be completely waterproof if you need something that will dry for hours in a downpour. The pockets are fleece lined and feel very nice.
Highly recommended!!
