Good multi-tasker softshell

This is a great jacket to have in your arsenal. This is my first/only softshell, and I've used it for everything from a night on the town to snowboarding. It is very comfortable and very warm. It has kept me warm with a sweater underneath in ~30 degree temps with 20mph winds. I wouldn't call it a perfect snowsports jacket just because it is not quite waterproof (but very resistant) and is not quite long enough to keep snow out of your back on those nasty tumbles. For most everything else it is great. Breathes well enough to wear indoors for a while, but it would be overkill for all but the coldest of running days. It is made in China.

Fit:
I am 5'9" 170lbs and it fits very nicely. The length covers all but the longest untucked casual wear and the sleeves are generously sized. There is enough room underneath for a bulky hoodie or a couple of technical layers.

Appearance:
The fit/finish and build quality is excellent. The material is very quiet and comfortable, there is a very fine microfleece on the entire interior. I bought the green color, which does look a lot brighter than most online images depict.

Store:
Rock Creek shipped fast and the price was the best around.

Great standalone jacket for daily wear

The Marmot Gravity jacket is a classic winter jacket, perfect for daily use when you need something warm to throw on top of what you're already wearing. Very convenient if you're wanting to stay warm, but don't want to change out of your casual clothes into a technical base layer or mid layer first! Mine goes to work and back with me every day in the winter, on errands, etc.

This is an M1 softshell, not an M2, so it REALLY keeps the elements out. It's windproof and durable, but the material has a bit of stretch so it doesn't limit your range of motion. If you're looking for something to use during high-output activities in cold weather, I'd look at an M2 or a lighter weight piece with pit zips; this is more for low-output use in cold conditions.

It's an athletic cut, so don't expect to be wearing a thick down mid-layer underneath or anything, but you'll be surprised how warm the Gravity jacket keeps you on its own; if you DO wear it over a base layer, you'll be surprised how warm you'll be without the bulk of a huge parka.

Plus, the black color goes with just about everything, and doesn't look overly technical.

This thing is awesome. Great fit, build quality is fantastic. The Navy blue is a real nice. I'm 6.1 athletic build at 185 pounds, Large fits perfect, with room for base, polar 200 weight.
Very water resistant. 30 minute ride home in light to medium rain and 30 mile hour winds, it just started to spot in a couple places.
Very breathable, stretchy, completely wind resistant. Arm pocket is large enough to fit my Samsung Galaxy S II with CaseMate, but not with headphones. Using the pocket does not impede movement.
Only gripe, is it isn't as warm as I had hoped. Maybe I expected to much from my first soft shell. From what I read on the web, they replace a mid layer, but that is not the case. It is just a flexible, water resistant, windproof, light insulating outer layer. Pack a light shell if backpacking in case of downpours... Highly recommend it. I will be a Marmot Man now.
PS: I had a Columbia Key Three II before this, and returned it. The craftsmanship was not great for the price, but the Omni-Heat does work, if you were curious.

Best overall jacket.

I bought this jacket for everyday wear. It is a nice looking jacket that does an excellent job in blocking wind, rain and for keeping warm. The jacket fits well. I had a tough time deciding on the Large or Medium sized jacket. I ordered the Medium and am very pleased. I'm 5'11" and 160lbs. It fits perfectly. I did try on the Large in a store and the length of the sleeves were too long. I even consider myself to have long arms. I've been able to wear a shirt and a fleece under this jacket. It is a little snug but I do have enough room to move around. I have owned a North Face Denali for almost four years. The Marmot Gravity is a better overall jacket in my opinion. It does better at keeping me warm and keeping the wind out. It also repels water well. The interior lining of the Marmot is better than that of the Denali. I can place my hands in the pockets and there is minimal wind/cold that gets to my hands when the jacket is unzipped.

great day to day jacket

This is a great every day jacket to wear. It has held up well with daily wear, as well as damp days on the trail. This jacket blocks the heavy wind and does well with warmth. I usually wear a mid layer fleece underneath on the colder days. The jacket has a slimming cut, however, I do wish that there was one more additional inner pocket. The velcro sleeves don't get caught when going in and out of the jacket or pants. The lined neck is nice, and has extra room when zipped all the way up. Cinch bands are located within the pockets so you don't have to take your hands out to tighten. The only con's are that there is no hood for this mid level jacket, and one more large inside pocket could be used. Rain does bead and repel off. Good stitching and made well. Great jacket!

Useful jacket

Solid jacket. Manufacture is perfect. L size sleeves a little long, but not bad (I'm 16" sleeve, 29" torso, 42" chest). Freedom of movement very good. Not stifling hot, but comfortable. Feels "like armor", durable ready for anything. Repels light rain very well (haven't had it in a downpour, but it wasn't designed for that). Love the fleece pockets. The sleeve pocket is a nice touch, good for keeping a small, but important, item handy. Good warmth down to 32F. Works well as a shell over a heavy sweater/fleece top. Definitely windproof. Expect Marmot durability, and the jacket to last a long time. If you're looking for a rugged (and stylish) windproof/light rain shell or stand alone mild temp jacket, this is the ticket.

Bought it as a replacement for my Arcteryx and it rocks.

Been looking everywhere for a softshell that equals the attention to detail, finish and practicality of my Arcteryx Gamma SV. And at a more affordable pricepoint. Marmot's Gravity checks all the boxes. I was worried about the sizing and buying "sight unseen" online but I couldn't be happier with the purchase. I run about 220lb, 6' with wide shoulders and long arms. I find the fit well tailored (cuffs don't rise up to my elbows when I lift my arms and whether it's an illusion or not, the jacket cuts an enviable athletic silhouette---chicks dig that). But it does remain roomy enough to add a fleece or other heavy layer underneath. Bottom line? Marmot's Gravity is worth exploring.
Patrick at Moosejaw on 10/24/2012

I spent a lot of time searching for a coat that met all of my specs and didn't cost $400+ and was very happy when I found this. I'm 5'9" 175 lb and the L fits great with plenty of room for multiple baselayers including a thick fleece or down vest. It's kept me bone dry and warm on the bike in fairly heavy rain and temps between 25 - 40 (with activity and light baselayer). I don't feel any wind chill while biking. Also, material has a good feel to it and isn't overly stiff or "plastic" like many shells out there. Looks good enough for business casual as well - at least the gray color!

Almost too warm for such a light jacket

I have a bulky, yet very warm and attractive, leather jacket that is great for wearing to work or for a slightly dressier night out. I was looking for a less bulky winter jacket that I could wear on a daily basis that would be durable and easy to stash. So far this jacket is great. I've worn it with only a t-shirt underneath into the 40s and been perfectly comfortable. I actually think it would be too warm to exercise in unless it was well below freezing. Seems to keep the wind out well and a light to moderate rain beads off nicely. I wish it had another inner pocket, but otherwise no complaints.
Chris at Rock/Creek Outfitters on 01/01/2012

This is a great jacket for the fall/early winter/spring. It is stiff at first, but after a week of everyday use it loosens up. I use it as a shell when it is not too cold (20-50F) and layer underneath; once it is colder I switch to my down jacket.
I like the high collar on this jacket to cut down the wind and it beads water in a light rain. I bought the XL (5'11", 230#) and have plenty of room underneath. The cuffs are velcro, which helps to wear a glove over the top or underneath depending on the activity. I can fit my down sweater underneath if it's a wet cold.

Negative Reviews:
