 A great Parka with a major flawJan 04, 2011
By Kevin Babcock
"KBabcock"
I bought this Parka on the reputation of Marmot technical expertise in making Parka. This parka is very well made with excellent materials and workmanship. The outside shell is tough and water proof while the inside is soft yet durable. The coat is filled with 650 down but some of the cells seem under filled which cuases cold spot on the top and front of the shoulder, on the other hand I have found the Parka to be very warm. There are draw cords on the bottom, waist and collar and with the snow skirt the Parka seals very well from the elements. I can say that this would be the best parka I ever owned if not for a major flaw in the coat which is the hood. It is enormous, you could fit a medium size pumpkin in it. The face opening is so large that the hood will not seal around your face no matter how tight your pull the draw strings you can't seal out the cold. The wind blows right in on either side of the face. A ridiculous flaw for such an expensive coat. Further the collar of the hood is just too tall keeping your mouth behind it. If you then breath through your mouth the collar front becomes wet from your breath. Another very poor design feature.
I was so surprised at this flaw that I called Marmot about it and this is what Marmot's customer service rep told me after contacting the design department. "The hood is not meant to be worn, it was a styling decision to make it so big. Most people who buy this coat do not use the hood." I couldn't believe it. Marmot who's rep is their technical expertise of their outerwear is putting style above function. This is a Parka designed and marketed for cold weather yet the hood is not meant for use??? It is obvious that Marmot has moved from a maker of top gear to a mass merchandiser. This is a shame because this coat could have been one of the best out there but as it stands with this ridiculous hood I can not recommend this Parka.
There are better manufactures with real performance outerwear out there, take a pass on this coat and get one that is truly designed for the cold unless looking good in the cold is more important to you then keeping warm in it.

 Great Product!Dec 31, 2010
By Russell Anderson
This is a very warm and well made parka. The "angel wing" shoulder design is fantastic and this parka is warm and windproof. Have only had it down to -15 windchill, but so far very warm. I own and wear Northface, Outdoor Research and CanadaGoose. The Marmot is just behind the Canada Goose Baffin Parka as far as warmth but much more fasionable. Overall a great winter parka and very true to size.
