Nice rain jacket with some small annoyances
Bill K7 years ago
Received free product(Note: I received a free sample in exchange for writing an honest review.)
Overall, this is a nice rain jacket. For its main function of rain protection it is great, but there are a few design choices that I found annoying.
The fit is a bit tight. I am between medium and large and most large jackets are somewhat loose on me. This is large, but it fits me perfectly.
Likes:
- The fabric is amazing. Water just rolls off without wetting it. And it feels like fabric, not like a plastic sheet.
- The fabric provides no insulation, so you can layer as needed. I went running in cool weather with the jacket and a light shirt inside and I did not get hot at all. The underarm zippers also helped with ventilation.
- Rain protection is excellent.
- The seams are fully taped and the zippers are waterproof.
- The hood has a stiff tip, so it stays up and away from your eyes when wearing it. Also, protects better from the rain. (But there is also a negative.)
- A cord in the back of the hood allows you to adjust how it fits on your head.
Dislikes:
- The hood has a stiff tip, so it hits the back of your neck when not wearing it. I had to roll it inwards to keep it away. (But there is also a positive.)
- There are only two pockets. And the pocket linings inside do not form two bigger pockets like in some other jackets.
- The velcro on the cuffs is almost useless. Its positioning is such that the wrist opening is either fully open, or so tiny your hands cannot fit through.
- The hood cords have an unusual arrangement where the tips are dangling free but on the inside. I found it confusing to try and tighten the hood while wearing it, because I could not see which part of the cord I was pulling.

Marmot claims that this jacket will not wet out and that the DWR will last the life of the jacket. These are the reasons why I purchased the jacket. Sadly, the hood wetted out after a four mile hike in medium rain. To be fair, water beaded up nicely on the rest of the jacket. Maybe I just got a lemon, but I had the same problem with a Minimalist jacket (the Minimalist jacket soaked up rain on the hood, arms, back, etc), so I returned the Eclipse and am taking my chances with another brand.

Excellent rain jacket
7 years ago
Even though this is a rain jacket, it works great as a running/hiking jacket. Material is really soft, and feels like fabric, rather than plastic. Jacket is light and packable. It is described as an athletic fit, but my body type is nowhere near athletic, and the jacket fits quite well. Position of pockets is a bit too high, and, apparently, it was designed this way on purpose to make sure there is no overlap with backpack's hipbelt (great idea, btw, just takes a bit to get used to it). Hood is fairly large, but adjustment cord helps to make it fit. Overall - well designed, high quality jacket that works for all kinds of activities.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally purchased this for a six month trip overseas as a light rain jacket and windbreaker. I ended up liking it so much that it is now the standard outerwear I take with me on any trip because I can pack it down and stuff it into the front of my pack. It does a decent job of cutting the wind and I have worn it through plenty of snow showers. Pro: has zippered vents to increase ventilation under the armpits if you start warming up during a hike or walk. Con: has a bit of a boxy fit, which is not terrible for layering underneath, but I definitely notice it when I am wearing a pack and I have a lot of excess material on either side of my body.

Amazing Shell - EVODry is the future.
7 years ago
Amazing update to Marmot's shell line. Great fit. Very similar to my Marmot Minimalist jacket. Water and snow rolled off with ease. EVODry is a great improvement over GoreTex and they claim it's water repellency will never wear or wash out. Great not having to re-apply a water repellent yearly. Pocket locations are at a good height. Sleeves are a great length for a taller individual. Performed exceptionally on multiple bike commutes. Kept me dry on a couple of very wet days at the mountain.

This will keep you dry!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this jacket a little over a month now in the rainy climate of Whistler BC. I have been out in lots of heavy rain and wet snow shooting images of the jacket for a few hours at a time and it preformed seamlessly. It is a very light jacket that partners with a midlayer wonderfully for those cooler days. And once the rain stops, this jacket can scrunch into a tiny ball for storage. The pull cords on the hood are a very nice touch to open up a lot more vision. Im looking forward too many adventures with this jacket over the next few years!

Within 24 hours of purchasing the Eclipse, I was wearing it as a shell at the summit of MSH. The weather that day was brutal. Heavy rainfall, ice and snow all within 24 hours of owning it. It stood up great. Kept me dry as a bone. I can't comment on the longevity of it, but so far so good.

A Tight Fit
7 years ago
I'm always looking for a good shell to take with me while hiking. This jacket is very well made and the high pockets are unique, allowing you to make use of the pockets while wearing a pack with a hip belt. My only gripe is that I am a big guy. Most XXL jackets that I buy are big enough to allow me to layer, but this jacket is a little bit of a snug fit not really allowing me to layer it with fleece, I would suggest using it with an athletic base layer if your a big guy like me.

Keeps you dry when on the move
7 years ago
I used this lightweight shell many times and have been impressed thus far. Pedestrian use in the rain benefits from well design hood and waist adjustments. The pit zips and large pocket opening are a huge benefit when your core starts eating up. I bike commute with a backpack. The Eclipse repels rain no problem. It even cuts the wind real well on those cool gusty days. Pockets are readily accessible when chest strap and hipbelt are used. Slight moisture build up in the arms after medium length commute. I understand this jacket was not designed with biking as the intended use, so this is easily forgiven. The heathered grey look even does well with a business casual look around town. Wore over a sweater, dress shirt, and cotton t-shirt - stayed warm and dry in a 34*F downpour. Durability seems good so far. No wear has been noticed on shoulders or waist where pack straps go. Jacket loses wrinkles quickly after being stuffed in a pack. I am looking forward to seeing how long this jacket holds up. Downsides: 1) No hanging loop near the collar - easy fix fo Marmot. 2) I am a fan of having a chest pocket in jackets. This jacket is designed to be light and for active use. Front pockets as designed to avoid straps and no inside chest pocket cuts down on weight. A reminder that one jacket cannot do everything.

Great performance, great price!

I really like this jacket. I have been wearing it daily for about a month, and taken it out on a few pretty good adventures. Adventure 1 - Back country ski tour near Mt. Shuksan On a cold and sunny weekend, this jacket performed well, keeping the wind and snow out, and when things got a little too hot climbing I was reminded of it's light pack weight and small stow size. Adventure 2 - Conditioning trip to Mt. Si On a VERY stormy weekend (raining at the bottom/snowing on top, 50mph+ winds) this jacket got my to the top and back in a reasonable condition. Only wearing a wool t-shirt underneath, the jacket kept me warm and dry enough considering the conditions. Maybe one of the wildest wind days I've seen, top three for sure, and VERY wet. Think sideways snow/rain/sleet and branches and trees falling around us! PROs Excellent price-to-performance ratio. New EVODRY material is VERY quiet and VERY waterproof. This jacket is very lightweight and packs small. Zippers kept the water and wind out. Pockets were good sized and easily accessible with a pack on. Sleeves are cut back around the palms (this turned out to be a pleasant and comfortable surprise). Draw cords and velcro allowed for good adjust-ability in the right places. CONs Sleeves taper at end, making it difficult to get over larger mountaineering/gps watches. It was not impossible but annoying. Like most jackets, the hem is too short for my likes, coming untucked with a pack belt or a climbing harness when reaching high or taking a tumble down the slopes. Material didn't feel as breathable of as some of the more expensive membranes on the market. BOTTOM LINE I wish this jacket was around when I started out backpacking. It's comfortable, very packable, lightweight, breathable, waterproof and quiet for a very reasonable price. It packs a lot of features and performs nearly as well as some jackets nearly twice as much. We'll see over time if the EVODRY material lives up to it's promises.
