The marmot ether driclime wind jacket is just about the only piece of my outdoor clothes closet that always gets packed year round.

Ether driclime jacket review.

Packs down into its pocket which is nice. While the driclime liner is a very thin piece of felt like material it makes a massive difference in how the jacket feels. Because of the wind cold water resistance that the ether driclime contains it s best to be used for outside activities. Buy marmot ether driclime jacket womens.

However it does offer a unique design for those who do not need the lightest and most packable jacket. In this case i am better off with a 100 fleece or two thin base layers. Keeps some water out this isn t build for a heavy downpour. The ether had trouble stacking up against other contenders that are far more packable and better performing.

The marmot ether is one of three lined jackets in this review. The driclime lining is thinner than a standard dri clime jacket so this jacket has less insulating value than you might expect. However plenty of the customer reviews mentioned that the jacket is less efficient in warmer climates and although can be water repellant it cannot withstand heavy rainfall. Most helpful positive review marmot ether driclime love this jacket.

Sturdier and seems same weight as my old women s windshirt with same roomy fit so i can easily wear sweatshirt underneath. I m between a small and a medium and find the ether driclime s small size to be too tight around the shoulders and chest. It added significantly to the jacket s wind resistance ranking it at the top of the pile. Check great and honest reviews.

The ether hoody is a snug athletic fitting wind jacket that has that thin warm layer already built in. Unlike lighter windshirts the marmot ether driclime jacket above features a peach fuzz driclime lining a two layer knit that wicks sweat by pushing it from the inner surface to an outer layer where it dissipates. It s a great wind jacket that keeps the chill off in a solid breeze through major wind gusts is water repellent and breathes well while providing some insulation.
