Reviews & Ratings for Marmot Mens Spectra Jacket — 1 review — Page 1

This is a great jacket. The closest comparison is the Marmot Precip, but this has a couple more pockets, and weighs just a bit more. It seems pretty durable, though I haven't had it long. I have only used it in light rain, so I can't really comment on how it would perform in a heavy downpour, but I stayed dry and the waterproof zippers didn't leak. It seems to breathe well, and it has nice pit zips to ventilate further. I got the XL, which is the size I take for most jackets and shirts. The fit seems pretty big, and would fit nicely over a down or fleece sweater as an outer shell. I paired this with the Precip pants (also great), and just comparing the two, the Spectra seems a bit more durable, but I don't know for sure if that is just the difference between jacket and pants or not. It packs nicely into its own pocket, and can compress even smaller with no problem. Overall, very happy.
