Waterproof, but NOT Durable
I used these for just six days on the Appalachian Trail and this is what I discovered. Fantastic waterproof outer layer that can be worn all day when chilly. Too warm above 45 degrees for all day wear. Day one noticed the mesh back pocket had a large hole in the corner. Day two noticed the white liner in the crotch was disintegrating. Liner seems to have no purpose. Day four noticed the pants were coming apart (splitting) at the bottom where the seam tape ends. The Durability of this product is below one-star. Note: the warranty doesn’t cover this product defect. They consider holes appearing in the pants after four days of use to be fair wear and tear. The fit small, medium, large, x-large is normal. You must get the correct inseam. You do not want these to be too long. The Velcro on the waists is not long enough to keep the pants on tight as your waist gets smaller during a long hike.
Great Pants
Took these pants up kilimanjaro. The full-zip is a must. Waterproofing performed well and they provided great wind protection. The sizing of these is a bit weird. I'm 6'2", thin, but with long legs and a big butt. I opted for the Large and they fit well, but a little tight in the crotch and loose around the waist. The XL allowed more movement in the crotch and legs, but was too loose around the waist. The one drawback here is there is no drawstring in the waist. This needs to be addressed. Other than that, I love this and would recommend. Price cannot be beat.
Feels weird but works just fine.
Like several others have mentioned, the lack of a drawstring gave me concerns. At 5'9", 165lbs, the mediums fit okay but when I initially tried them on it was weird putting my hands in my pockets as the pants didn't feel secure. I initially wore them to a Sounders match and they kept me dry, but never felt secure. Honestly, I had planned to take them back but I had an overnighter to Snoqualmie Lake that weekend so I decided to give them a try. Strangely enough, with my pack on, I they felt fine and didn't give me any problems at all. This was with a 35lb. pack on. I've since gone on multiple conditioning hikes with the same pack weight and again, the pants felt comfortable every time. I would still prefer a drawstring, and I'm not sure how I would feel about them hiking with a lighter daypack, but I'm happy with them. Having said that, if my local REI had a better selection of rain pants and one fit as well and also had a drawstring, I would probably go with the rain pant that had the drawstring.
Great Rain Pant - Velcro Waist Not Good
I took a pair of these pants with me to Iceland for a photography trip. They are exceptional at keeping out the water and wind. What I did not like is the waist adjustment is performed with velcro tabs. Two issues; one, the velcro is not strong enough to hold the waste tight; two, the velcro scratched the skin off the top of my hand from reaching into my inside pocket. After three days I had a pretty good sore going on the top of my right hand. When I returned I exchanged them for a pair of Outdoor Research rain pants (at nearly double the cost) that had a proper mechanism for cinching the waist and zero velcro on the garment. Just a quick note to clothing manufacturers. Velcro is a wonderful invention but it is not really a proper fastening mechanism for true outdoor gear. In fact, it makes you product look cheap. I have always had a wonderful experience with Marmot products and did not notice the velcro when I purchased, I was going on brand loyalty.
Fabulous, light weight rain pants.
These are my commuter pants and they do the job well. I got the medium and the length is perfect. Fit is great, and that is a must as the tops of your shoes or boots MUST be covered snugly to keep splashes out. I recommend that you try them on carefully. Zips, snaps on the bottom are also a must. The Velcro waist band is not that adjustable so again, make sure the fit is good. Warmth is reasonable, in cool weather don't feel like I was getting to warm. Reduced my top layers to accommodate the addition warmth of pants over pants.
Marmot side zip pants
I am a car hauler working in all kinds of weather kneeling down, leaning against wet cars and trucks in the rain loading and unloading and securing my load all out in the rain. These pants keep me dry and when the rain stops I can take them off without removing my workboots because of the side zippers. These pants breath very well too and that's important when you are working hard because your sweat would soak you down in ordinary (non-breathable) rain gear. As far as how long they will last I've only used them for two months but no signs of wear so far. They are also quick to dry so you can stow them away soon after use. I also bought the jacket and cuddos on it too. I bought the tall sizes on both. The tall sizes have limited colors, I would like to have gotten a bright color with reflective stripes but i'll still give it 5 stars for everything else. I got the large tall and the fit is perfect. I'm 6' 3" and about 210 pounds.
Full-featured at a decent price point
I’ve had the PreCip pants for over a year now and have used them fairly extensively, including long exposure to high precipitation. Overall, I think they’re pretty solid rain pants. Here are my observations: First (most importantly), they really are waterproof. Although I’d expect the textiles/coatings to be exactly the same as the PreCip jacket, I’ve found that the pants far exceed the performance of the jacket. The pants do wet out (similar to the jacket), but the inner coating does a much better job at keeping the water off the wearer. The longest I’d been exposed to constant moderate to heavy precipitation while wearing the pants was for a period of approximately 3 hours. After which I noticed a slight wetness above the knees and at the ankles. The ankles may have very well been from splashing (I wasn’t wearing gaiters), and above the knees was likely due to the fabric being pulled taught as I was taking large steps while climbing, which I feel is understandable as such conditions could even make water penetrate GoreTex. Second, the pants are very well featured at their price point. The full zips are a must for rain pants, and if you unzip them from the ankles up to the waist you can fit a rather large sized boot through. Pockets are great to have as well; haven’t noticed any water penetration there. Lastly, price. In my opinion, the pants are priced fairly and I believe what you get is a pretty competitive. The main consideration would be whether or not you want to step it up to GoreTex or eVent membrane pants, which for the most part are roughly twice the cost. In my opinion, unless you have specific need for those pants, the PreCips will do just fine. As far as cons go: The pants can get a little clammy, as breathability is not super great on any PreCip product. However, that is much more manageable with the pants. Also, it would be nice if they packed down a little smaller.
2 pairs - BOTH de-laminated. Otherwise a good pant
I really wanted to like these pants. They have great potential, but somehow Marmot dropped the ball on this one, with regards to quality. I am 6' tall and approx. 175 lbs. I typically wear a 33" waist. I purchased these pants to use for snowshoeing in the winter, and for hiking in the warmer months. I purchased the medium and the large. The medium fit just a tad smaller than I like, but would be fine for summer use over lightweight pants or shorts. The waist was just right. The large fit better for winter use over a layered pant system, but the waist was just a bit too loose, and there is not enough adjustment to tighten them to where they would not fall down. Pros: Lightweight Water-proof Pockets Full zips work good Cons: Limited adjustment in waist Elastic around ankle cuff seems a bit weak Both pairs started to de-laminate in the crotch after only ONE hike. Hence my 2-star rating. Returned because of this. If these pants did not de-laminate, I would give them a 3 or 4 star rating. Probably 3 stars, considering the cost.
Great rain pant, bonus for having "long" sizes!
I decided to upgrade my rain pants before a recent trip to Iceland (where it seems to rain every day). The PreCip was a great choice. The full zip is super handy. I could unzip the bottoms a bit to quickly get the pants on or off over my hiking shoes, and I could unzip a bit near the top if it wasn't raining hard and I wanted some extra ventilation. They kept me dry, and they're good in terms of weight and breathability. Being tall (6'3"), I especially loved that these come in "long" sizes. Normal rain pants always left a bit of my lower leg exposed, but these covered my nicely right down to my shoes. I'd definitely recommend these pants to others.
Had my last pair for 10 years, buying them again
My last pair of Marmot PreClip rain pants lasted roughly 10 years of frequent backpacking (re-waterproofed maybe once or twice). Windproof, waterproof, warm, and fast to put on and take off. Can't speak highly enough of their durability. My 10 year old pair never ripped once and saw everything from the AT to the Zion Narrows to the Boundary Waters.
