Reviews & Ratings for Marmot Isotherm Jacket - Mens — 2 reviews — Page 1

Really like the lightweight part of this coat. It's warm enough for chilly mornings on my drive to work and walk into the office. I wouldn't want to stand outside in it on a really cold, windy day, with precipitation, but for what i wanted and it's weight, I'd buy it again.

Great all round winter jacket. Top grade materials with a really good construction that does not limit movement.

Has kept me perfectly warm in temps of around 4°C with just a shirt under it.
The pockets are equally constructed as the rest of the jacket, so no issues there.
Be careful not to use it in climates other than COLD(meaning higher than 10°C)
It's vent system(no pit zips) does not hold well, much less in light activity.
Maybe it does a better job in near or sub zero temps but hadn't had the chance to test it under those conditions yet.

Great materials and constructions, as well as packabilty and weight.
The single adjustment point on the waist and elastic cuffs instead of adjustables are a bit annoying, but nothing major.
Only downside is that, i think caused by the construction method of using several layers or the outer material, is that if you have a backpack on, the jacket gets pulled backwards(never had that problem with other jackets) so the neck of the jacket presses on your throat. The heavier the backpack, the higher the pressure.
backpacks seem to just slip more than usual on it

Also, although is not a rain jacket it handles it pretty good. Used it with heavy rains and water just slips of it. Not sure about severe rainstorms or really long ones, not had the chance to test it on those conditions.
