Nice Parka

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is soft and comfortable, the Nano-Pro fabric is lightweight, breathable, and doesn't make crinkle noise. I've received many compliments on the style and light-yellow color. It ran big across the shoulders/chest and sleeve length, so I went from an XL to a M to get the fit I wanted for warmer temps with lightweight tops (I'm 5'3" 165 and usually get L). For over a down jacket snow shoeing, I'd want the L. The side entry on the pockets is not zippered so I wish there were an inside security pocket. Whatever the bit stiffer cord is called, that's in the perimeter of the hood, I like it - it keeps the hood from falling onto my forehead, but with the hood off it lies down and doesn't stick up behind my head. Overall I'm very pleased and got a second color on a great sale.

Love this

I’ve finally found the best rain jacket. Not noisy, super rainproof light. I don’t get sweaty in this. Bought for a trip to Europe. But we’ve had a lot of rain here in New England so I’ve been trying it out. I totally recommend. A little expensive but worth it. I initially bought a medium but it was too big. Exchanged for a small. Perfect fit even with fleece underneath. I’m 5’2” 160 lbs. small has plenty of room.

Double Duty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this jacket. Its secret power is the drawstring waist. For use over t shirts draw the waist tight. For early spring/late fall layering over a fleece hoodie or thick warm sweatshirt, loosen the waist and it fits perfectly. I normally wear a large, but the medium fit much better, even with a heavy sweatshirt underneath the jacket. Even better no pastic-y nylon feel or sound.

Great color for a seasons

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this jacket! Perfect for walks in rainy weather. The green color provides good visibility for pedestrians. It has a loose fit. I ordered down two sizes. The exchange was quick and I’m very happy with the results. I’m 5’4” 120 lbs. Usually wear size medium for close fitting technical sportswear. I can wear a warm layer under this jacket, sized extra small.

A parka I’ve been hunting for!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this jacket. I finally found a rain parka that comes down past my hips, keeping me dryer and warmer. I got a bigger size so that it easily fits over other jackets in colder weather. I do wish it had zipper pockets and at least one interior pocket but at least the pockets it has are deep enough to hold things in securely. So glad I got this parka.

Don't buy women's '78 All-Weather Parka

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] don't buy this unless you are size l and above. I usually wear S in marmot outwear and ordered S, it is at least 3 size larger than normal S and shapeless. Unfortunately it's final sale and I could not return it. Contacted customer service and never heard anything back. Very disappointed

Totally satisfied

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! So lightweight, yet totally waterproof, loads of pockets, and an amazing hood that doesn't cling to your face!! Definitely runs large, so heed their sizing suggestions, but I'm totally satisfied!

Satisfied customer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fabric and color. Fits as expected. A coat to wear for dog walks, around town, and hiking. Very satisfied with purchase. 2 minor quibbles: wish there was 1 interior pocket and a hanging loop.

Bought for autumn travel

I bought this for an upcoming trip. I plan to wear it over a puffer vest and ordered my regular size. If you don’t plan on layering like this, you may want to size down.
