    Comments about Marmot PreCip Rain Jacket - Women's:

    Purchased this in the Blue Sea color during Fall 2012 for the impending wet season. I love the color and how vibrant it is! It did stand up to the rain pretty well, but I found on cold, blustery days, the jacket was not windproof as indicated. Layering it over a fleece jacket or a down vest took care of that.

    After several months of use, I noticed my arms were starting to feel clammy. Upon inspection, I found that the pocket zipper had rubbed or torn a hole near my right elbow. I will be returning this jacket. Still undetermined as to whether I will purchase the same jacket or looking for something different.

      Comments about Marmot PreCip Rain Jacket - Women's:

      I bought this jacket 2 hours before a 5-mile race when I realized the downpour was not going to stop. I was incredibly pleased with the performance - I did not get wet under the jacket nor was I sopping wet from perspiration. Clearly it's not designed as a running jacket but in a pinch, it was great. I bought the cloud color so I can wear it on future early morning low visibility runs.

        Comments about Marmot PreCip Rain Jacket - Women's:

        I bought this for use as a rain jacket, and its done it's job! For everyone saying theirs is not waterproof; mine has kept me dry in more than one multi-day torrential winter downpour in Phoenix, AZ (where the majority of my runnings and errands had me outside for extended periods of time.)
        This jacket has survived several summits, and a technical beating on a certain peak in the Gallitan mountain range in Montana. It's been scraped, raked, rained on, slid on, snagged, caught, stuffed, strapped, and brutally packed away; still like new with the exception of some dirt stains here and there (my screen name is a joke, I bought this jacket to do it's job.)
        It keeps the rain out of my face, and nips a chilly breeze in the bud with a proper base layer on.

        It doesn't breathe; but I expect that of a fully waterproof rain jacket. I know there are Marmot shells out there that are both water proof and breathable but they're pricier. For the money this is worth it for me. The pit venting does what it's designed to do, as well.

        It's flattering, and doesn't ride up or bunch uncomfortably. Five Stars for doing it's job; and five stars for the REI in Bozeman, MT- where I originally bought it! Great customer service and polite sales associates. Spot on!

            I bought this for a trip to Costa Rica and while it seems to be a great coat, it didn't suit my needs in the west-coast rainforest. Although I'm sure it's works well in rainy weather, it's too heavy for the humid heat of a tropical environment. I think it's better used for temperatures below 80 F.

            This jacket is good for mild winter climates and can be comfortably layered with a vest underneath. Packs up small and light. Does not pair well with a down under-layer because it does not handle the bulk well. For that, you should step up to Arc'terx which has more room in the right places for heavier cold weather layers.

              I looked for more than a year at good, water-proof jackets while trying to pick one that would stand the test of the different climates I travel between, and I have to say that after finally choosing this one, I don't think I could do any better. I absolutely love this jacket, it's perfect for any type of weather & fits well enough that it's easy to layer with when it gets too wet and cold, and it's fantastic for travel too. It's just an all-around good buy, and definitely worth it if you need a serious water-resistant jacket.

                I used this while hiking on the Inca trail in Peru during the rainy season. It was a great investment because it kept me dry and when I wasnt using it, it was small and lightweight in my backpack. I would recommend this product for anyone using it for any kind of rain whether it be light sprinkles to downpours, it keeps you dry.

                Detachable hood is a pain to put into place when the latest West Coast downpour starts. Easier to just pull up a hood that doesn't have an option to be hidden for good taste.

                I replaced an not-waterproof rain jacket with the Precip and I'm delighted. I wear it over a down sweater for a great winter jacket system. It's really waterproof and slips over my other stuff. Sleeves are long enough, hem is long enough. It's a bit crinkly and noisy, though, but I'll take it! I wear it around town and hiking, and am about to take it on a week-long snowshoeing trip.
