Mountain Gear

Climb the highest spire of the wettest, snowiest mountains with the absolute waterproof protection provided by Marmot's Spire Jacket crafted with GORE-TEX Performance Shell. With a penchant for battling stormy weather, it sheds the storm and keeps you dry on the inside with its inherent breathability that allows sweat to quickly evaporate, all while taped seams, a laminated hood, and DriClime-lined collar keep stray droplets at bay. Specifications based on size Medium.

Features:

  • Even your noggin stays dry when you pull up the helmet-compatible Gale Force hood with a laminated wire brim and ERG adjustment for a fine-tuned fit for your cranium
  • If the weather proves chill, slide it on over multiple baselayers or a fleece - there's just enough room within the athletic fit
  • Let the rain fall at will while you stay perfectly dry in GORE-TEX Performance Shell that sheds moisture while allowing interior sweat to evaporate before it condenses on your skin
  • Move in comfort and without restriction in the women-specific fit and Angel Wing Movement construction that allows you to use your full range of motion
  • Shun ice and snow with the zip-out powder skirt and tighten the elastic drawcord hem to keep chill drafts at bay
  • Stow your keys or ID in the Pack Pockets with water-resistant zippers, or in the internal, zippered mesh pocket
  • Tiny drips don't make it past the 100% seam-taped microstitching while the DriClime chinguard prevents moisture from leaking into your coat
  • When you amp up the aerobic level, stay sweat free and vent heat via the PitZips and the integrated laser-drilled pocket backing

Gore-Tex Performance fabric and fully taped seams hold off the worst that Mother Nature throws your way. Marmot cut this jacket a little large to leave room for your fleece mid-layer.

nice jacket

Rating:*****

took this jacket with me to patagonia and it was well worth shelling out the benjamins for it. it's not lined and is fine to wear on its own if the temperature is about 50 degrees -- but, as is the norm with hiking, you need to be wearing a couple of layers if you're going to be hiking and subject to the elements (snow, rain, blowing winds - like i was). it didn't keep me from feeling dry when i was outside in torrential rain, even though it is gore-tex...

in terms of sizing - i got the medium and i found it a bit tight around the hips, so i unzipped the bottom using the second zipper. as for the chest area, it was a tad roomy. please note the weight - it's a bit heavier than other windbreakers and does not compress to a small size (i know that every ounce, every inch counts when you're backpacking.)

i don't regret buying this jacket - i've received lots of compliments on it, and the pockets are invaluable when you're traveling and want to keep your credit card, passport, and ID on you at all times. the blue is absolutely gorgeous (it's a richer, deeper blue than how it appears on the computer monitor).

mega props to backcountry.com's online customer service - they rock & the shipping is lightning fast. definitely will continue recommending fellow travelers to shop here. cheers!

Looks great!!

Rating:****

I just received the Marmot Spire shell in Blue Grotto / Skyline Blue and I love the colours (I hope the light blue front won't get too dirty). I also bought the Marmot Power Stretch Half zip in Skyline Blue and it looks fantastic with the shell.
Regarding the sizing, I was at the lower end of the measurement range in all measurements for a medium but in the middle of the high/weight range for a small so I ordered the small. Lots of room for a couple of layers in the arms and bust but a bit tight in the hips (maybe this will motivate me to get my butt in gear and get to the low end of the weight range).
Would have liked a sleeve pocket for my kleenex stash and a loop or something for my ski pass but all in all, it looks great!!
As usual, Backcountry gave me great service - it should be a model for all businesses.

Let it Snow!!!

Great Shell

Rating:*****

Excellent technical shell. I've had mine about a month, and it has been excellent for the resort and backcountry skiing I've used it for. Plus the color (celestial blue) is awesome- very bright, which makes me easy to spot. I've received many compliments already. The jacket has a great feminine fit, and fits well over a fleece or softshell. My only complaint is that the powder skirt is a bit high, and doesn't really stop powder from coming up... so I just took it out. The hood, however, is perfect- fits over my helmet, and the neck comes up high to block wind. A great deal, especially if you can find it on SAC.
