The Rock/Creek guide to Marmot rain jackets
"I’ll be the first to admit it: it can be a bit confusing to shop for rain jackets. It seems every manufacturer has their own proprietary waterproofing technology, a couple of trademarked names, and there must be hundreds of different rain jackets on the market! Since Marmot makes our best-selling line of rain jackets, let’s start by focusing there… but things are still a little tricky..."

LOVE THE JACKET. ONLY THING I WOULD HAVE DIFFERENT IS CHEST POCKET INSTEAD OF SLEEVE POCKET. JUST MY PREFERENCE FOR USABILITY.

Comments about Marmot Aegis Jacket (Men's):
Bought the Aegis to use for cycling, hiking, spring skiing, and general around-town wear. Have cycled with it in NW downpours and cool-but-dry weather. Water from the outside has not gotten in. Water vapor from the inside has mostly gotten out. It is definitely more breathable than other jackets I have used for cycling or skiing. This jacket's breathability seems to be near-equal to GoreTex and EVent jackets I was considering yet it cost substantially less.
The hood is big enough to fit over a cycling or ski helmet, turns with my head, and does not obscure my peripheral vision. Zippers operate well with one hand and don't snag. I'm 6'0", 205 lbs. Large size fits. Sleeves long enough, body loose enough to wear over sweaters, length is fine, though front is definitely shorter than the back. It's also very light and packable.

Comments about Marmot Aegis Jacket (Men's):
Having previously owned a Oracle jacket, which is made of the same shell material, I can attest to the waterproofedness and breathability of this piece of gear. I love this jacket, I really do, but I have two problems with it. I was looking for a jacket with 'pack pockets,' those nice chest height pockets for your hands. This is advertised as having those. And while the zippers are certainly at the right height, the pocket itself extend to the bottom of the jacket, which is just awkward. The ONLY other issue I have with it is my fault for not reading the description closely enough, but it is a minor qualm: there is no chest pocket for gear, but a sleeve pocket instead. That pocket isnt nearly as useful for chapstick or other gear as the chest one is, but hey this thing is WICKED LIGHT by not having too many features.
