 Suffocate December 30, 2008
I seem to be the only person that does not like their Marmot Precip jacket. The upsides are that it is waterproof and very compact, but the jacket does not breathe at all. The few times that I have worn it I feel very "sticky" inside it, even with the pit zips open. Having my arms sweat even in low temperatures while wearing this jacket is pretty miserable. So I placed this jacket as an emergency rain coat in the trunk of my car...
 Good but not great December 14, 2008
Nice jacket, worth the sale price,I paid. Free shipping made it really nice, being that the price quoted is the price paid, rather than shipping fees adding to the cost.
Can't imagine why someone would have been asking $400 for this jacket at some time. No wonder they had ones left for the sale.
Nice fit. Haven't really put it to the test yet, in Oregon rain. But so far, it has done well in the conditions I've exposed it to; i.e light rain, mild winds.

I am happy with the overal fit and performance of the product. I have only tested it in the rain once, with good results. I haven't had it long enough to comment on it's durability. Packs well

What better situation to test the durability of a rain jacket than during a tropical storm escorting ladies from their cars to a baby shower?
I had wanted a lightweight versatile rain jacket for quite some time. Enter the Marmot PreCip rain jacket. For a mid priced jacket this can't be beat. Not only did the PreCip handle well in the rain but it provided the kind of breathability you would find in higher priced rain jackets. While it does skimp on the pockets it nonetheless provides a good contour fit around the upper torso. From the low profile zippers and tighteners this is a hiker, runner, or everyday man's must-have jacket. The jacket can be stuffed into one of its own pockets for stowage which makes it ideal for backpacking. I would highly recommend this jacket for anyone looking for a lightweight moderately priced rain jacket.

Great lightweight rain jacket. Completely waterproof. Easily packable and perfect for the Spring (or any season) weather in Seattle.
