Marmot Sharp Point Jacket - Perfect for any occasion.
A good wind resistant jacket wont come cheap. So when you look for one, its nice if it can be used for more than just cutting through the wind. The Marmot Sharp Point Jacket is the perfect combination of high tech materials, stylish design, and comfort. The Marmot Sharp Point Jacket is tough enough to withstand rain, wind, and snow; but stylish and comfortable enough to wear around town.
A nice feature on the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket is that it has a thin fleece lining. This helps keep you a little warmer when wearing the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket by its self. For some reason many windproof jackets overlook this feature. If you wear the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket over a fleece or warm midlayer you will be able to stay toasty warm in almost any condition.
If you start to get too toasty, simply unzip the pit vents and air out. AS I said, the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket is surprisingly warm for how lightweight the jacket is. The Marmot Sharp Point Jacket also offers a low profile look, making it stylish enough to wear around town as well.
The quick & dirty:
Where you can get one:
Amazon: $210
Why they rock:
- Gore Windstopper laminate fabric offers durable wind protection and high breathability so you stay warm and comfortable with fewer layers
- Pit zips allow ventilation control
- Elastic, adjustable drawcord hem; cuffs adjust with hook-and-loop closure tabs
- Zippered handwarmer pockets and a zippered interior pocket hold small essentials
Seat-of-the-pants rating: 8 out of 10
To sound like a broken record, the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket is just a great all around jacket. So if you are ready to retire your North Face Denali Fleece, take a look at the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket. The versatility, style, and comfort of the Marmot Sharp Point Jacket make it a great buy.
