Minimalist Pertex^® Waterproof Hooded Jacket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice. Love the large arm pit zips. The side pockets are deep and perfect for backpack. The hood adjustment keeps the hood secure to my forehead. Its very light weight and very packable. I pack it into the side pocket. I wouldn't mind if Marmot would have designed it with inside pocket zip but it fits perfect. Very happy with it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Minimalist jacket used to be made out of Goretex. I was a bit disappointed when I saw that this was Pertex instead. It's not as heavy or as water resistant. But I figured this out before I purchased the jacket and I was willing to try. I really love the Pertex jacket. It's a different animal, but great nonetheless. I want it mostly to take to the ocean where it's damp and windy. I often also have to stow it in my already full backpack. This jacket does all those things better than my Goretex version. I have both and I'm happy I have both. This was definitely a great buy.
