a brand of superior outdoors clothing and equipment worn and used by discerning and discriminating outdoors enthusiasts. Known for great technical style, clean and sleek design. Marmot produces technical outdoors and outdoors lifestyle clothing without ridiculous prices. Probably best known for PreCip rainwear, DriClime windshirts, and their
sleeping bags but also make beautiful softshells, down jackets, tents and packs. Big break and defining moment came when they did down jackets for
the Clint Eastwood classic "The Eiger Sanction", reflected to this day in the clean Euro look of their products. Used by
professional guides, carried primarily in outdoor specialty shops such as The Trailhead in Buena Vista, Colorado.
Ian - "That's a great looking jacket. Does it keep you warm and dry? Who makes it?"
Carlos - "Yes, it kept me warm and dry in
Chamonix. It's
waterproof, breathes well, and doesn't have a bunch of useless non-functional
crap on it. It's from Marmot."
