The PreCip Jacket is stylish, value-oriented, full-function rainwear for backcountry and urban travelers alike. The key to PreCip™ is its barrier technology: a microporous polyurethane that is impregnated with silicon dioxide particles. These particles create small, numerous, very consistent holes that allow the barrier to pass small water vapor molecules but not the bigger liquid ones. This keeps the rain out while letting your sweat vapor work its way outside, away from your body, to keep you dry from the inside as well as from the outside. PreCip™ rainwear is compressible enough to stuff into a water bottle and comes in enough colors and styles to travel with you anywhere– to the mountains, the city or overseas.
The Marmot PreCip Jacket is an extremely lightweight waterproof/breathable shell. The PreCip is fully featured with pitzips, core venting and everything else you'd expect from a $400 piece, yet it weighs half as much and costs only a fraction.
Made with a microporous polyurethane that is impregnated with silicon dioxide particles.

This keeps the rain out while letting your sweat vapor work its way outside, away from your body, to keep you dry from the inside as well as from the outside.
Also, the PreCip Jacket is highly compressible - perfect for those outings when you don't expect it to rain but going without rain gear would be too risky.

Awesome Jacket!!! | |
| Rating: | |
| Okey. So when is my Precip lime colored jacket gonna wear out? Never. I have had it for a few years and no excuse to buy a new one but, I just love it so much that I wanted it also in brown. I mean I have taken this jacket around the world through backpacking, backcountry skiing, rafting trips, you name it and it is an amazing jacket. Layer under it and you can use it year round which I do. I am always dry in this jacket even in a long downpour hike, ski, raft... I am dry. The pit zips are awesome and easy to open and close on the move and I love the cut. I feel like a woman not some guy with a straight jacket on that does not fit my hips. You ladies know what i mean, right? I have a figure... this jacket shows it. Oh, and not to mention, it washes well and dries quick. I cannot say enough and if i could substantiate it in every color for every day of the week, I would have one for every day of the week. But, I already have two now. Maybe in three years marmot will keep this jacket on the retail options and I can get yet another color. So buy the jacket. It is a steal for the uses, value and overall performance of course. | |

Love It...even though I wish the arms were longer! | |
| Rating: | |
I love the performance of this jacket, and the Marmot brand quality. The zippers work great, pit vents are a wonderful invention I didn't even know I needed, and the color is great! The only complaint I would have is that I wish the arms were longer and the body more form fitted. I am 5'8", 120lbs, and have a long torso and long arms. So it is often difficult for me to find womens clothing that are long enough. I purchased the small first, and the arms were at least and inch and a half from my wrist. I then exchanged it (super easy to do thanks to the great people at backcountry.com, even rushed it to me so I wouldn't have to go through the agony of waiting, and waived shipping charges!!) I then received a medium. I'm pretty happy with the arm length, still wish it were a bit longer. I like my sleeves to go at least an inch or two below my wrist for stretching purposes. For me, the medium is a bit big in the width area, but leaves plenty of room for layering in the fall/winter. It does an awesome job of blocking out all wind and rain. Very satisfied! Love backcountry.com, we buy ALL of our stuff from here. You can't beat the prices or the exceptional service!! | |

Excellent all-arounder | |
| Rating: | |
The rainiest May in NYC in years blew out my old commuting jacket, so it was time to upgrade. I'd been thinking about the Precip for years, and finally had the excuse I needed! The priorities for me were a jacket that was lightweight, compress-able, had sleeves long enough to ride in without my wrists sticking out and didn't fit like a tent. I started off with the Tamale in Small which was a bit too orange for me and a little short in the wrists (I'm 5'6 with long limbs), so I exchanged it for Sweetpea in Medium. It's a pretty bright green, but I like that it pops out of the background. The body is a bit roomier than I might choose, but I think I'm going to like that once I'm sticking more layers underneath it. The sleeves reach just past my wrist-bones when I'm riding my road bike, and the hood stays put on top of my helmet surprisingly well. The pit zips are great, and easy to grab when riding to ventilate quickly. Having ridden home in the pouring rain several times since getting it, I can vouch that while the rest of me got soaked, my arms and torso were comfortable and dry. Completely recommend this jacket. | |

Great Rain Coat | |
| Rating: | |
Got this for a recent 4 day trip to the BWCAW (Late Aug08) - worked great, even when we got 2.5 inches in one night. I did not find the hood to be too small, even while wearing glasses and a headlamp, but then I have a pretty small head. Packs up in about half of the space available in the pocket/pouch (left pocket) with a nice hang loop and zipper tab on the inside to use while packed. The sizing was great and not boxy nor overly skinny, fitting nice and looking nice at the same time it has enough room to layer a fleece underneath withough feeling stuffed in, which allows you to use it as a do-it-all shell instead of packing another coat. My one and only complaint is that on the XL, the velcro straps to hold the cuffs tight do not get small enough to fit my medium frame - every time I went to adjust ropes on the tarps, I got a stream of water running from my wrists to my elbow - inside the coat. | |

Bought Just In Time! | |
| Rating: | |
I wound up wearing this as weather system Hannah (or maybe it was Ike) blew through the upper reaches of the East Coast. I was on an island in the middle of a lake that straddles the border of Maine and New Hampshire. It was windy and wet and I was SOOO glad that I bought this before the trip. My upper body stayed dry. The pit zips kept me unsweaty, though with them closed, it's breathable but I don't know if it qualifies as "the most breathable" - I'm guessing there's something a touch better. The pockets were big enough to hold small rolls of toilet paper (what a pain going to the latrine that night) and my flashlight. My lower body was wishing that I got the pants. And now that I'm not on an island, I regularly wear this out and about. Oh, I'm usually a petite. I got the extra small and it's a touch big with just a t-shirt on but is nice because I can wear layers underneath it and it fits perfect. Great jacket! | |

Missed the rain, thanks to the PreCip! | |
| Rating: | |
As a Colorado native, you learn to be prepared for any type of weather any time of year. This means anything from wearing shorts to shovel snow, from breaking out the fleece in mid July. I brought my conveniently stowed PreCip jacket to a concert this summer at Red Rocks, despite the cloudless day. A California couple even laughed when I said I was packing my raincoat in my handbag. However, before Modest Mouse came on we found ourselves in the middle of a downpour. Thanks to the PreCip, I was able to stay dry enough(on top at least) to remain in the venue, and even able to move down closer to the stage while less prepared mouse fans were forced to seek shelter. I have also used this jacket during hikes or walks across campus during a sudden Colorado storm. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to remain dry! | |

Yet to be disappointed by Marmot | |
| Rating: | |
I have never bought a piece of Marmot gear I didn't like, and this rain jacket was no exception. It was so lightweight and compactable that I didn't mind that I carried it every day for two weeks in the Sierras and it didn't rain once. I wore it as an extra warm, windproof layer at night, and shoved it in the top of my pack during the day. I was so disappointed it didn't rain, I put it on when I got home and climbed into the shower. Seems to me like it could withstand any downpour. The hood has just enough of a bill on it to keep the rain out of my face, while not sagging in my eyes. The pit zips are a great plus. If Marmot keeps making such quality, affordable products, I'm going to end up looking like a walking advertisement. | |

Stylish look, Excellent Fit | |
| Rating: | |
| This product was recommended to me by my mother-in-law who also purchased the Marmot Precip Jacket. She allowed me to try hers on before making my own purchase to see the quality and the workmanship. The design was quite stylish, and the jack has great pockets along with an adjustable hood and cuff adjustments for the perfect fit. After experiencing unexpected rainy weather on our latest hike, in Washington it was a tremendous releif to be able to use the jacket. It stuffed down nicely, and is lightwieght for packing. It was easy to put on quickly and the zippers worked well and kept me dry. It is roomy enough to wear over my existing clothes, yet it would also work well alone. The material is soft and breathable. I loved the color and would like to purchase another jacket to wear for everyday use. | |

The color doesn't match what I saw on my monitor.... :) | |

I'm 5' 11" and 170 lbs, I ordered a Large and this jacket is a perfect fit. The cut is feminine, but leaves room for a warm layer underneth. I just got it last night and I can't wait to try it in the rain! | |

Trash bag. | |
| Rating: |  |
I really think the only differences between this jacket and a trash bag are the sleeves and the cut, otherwise they perform about the same in the rain. This doesn't breath well at all. The jacket's only redeeming qualities are that its really light and you can almost always find it on sale. | |

Precip is all wet. | |

After a few washings (3) my jacket lost it's water repellency, and now I have to use a silicone spray to get the water to bead up and roll off. The white liner inside near the hood is tearing too. Not happy at all with this jacket. | |

Skimpy cut | |
| Rating: | |
The features are good but the cut is very skimpy. I am always a small, but this small didn't leave room for a long-sleeve shirt or even a thin fleece under it. Too short, too narrow in the sleeve, too narrow in the torso. | |

It's not waterproof! DON'T BUY IT. | |
| Rating: |  |
when rain falls on this jacket, it does NOT repell water. The rain drop damps the surface and the moisture goes through and the inside of the jacket is damp also. | |

Not SURE! | |
| Rating: |  |
I am not sure yet whether I am thrilled with the jacket or not. First, it seems to run small. Second, the "breathability" issue is in question. I am planning on taking it on a Baltic cruise in a few weeks. THAT may be the ultimate test. It seems pricey if I end up not thrilled with it. | |
| b22ladybug at Backcountry.com on 06/20/2005 | |
nice but breathable? | |
| Rating: | |
It is definitely waterproof and lightweight. I keep it in my hydration pack when I am hiking peaks. It is not very breathable at all. Also, the size small is perfect everywhere but the sleeves are too short and I am only 5'7. I wish I had bought the Mountain Hardware Epic like my husband. | |

had to return | |
| Rating: | |
I liked the jacket, liked the sunny yellow color, but the hood is just too shallow to cover your face for when a downpour really does occur. Super light weight though so maybe it would be great for somewhere that it is just damp or having a small amount of precip. | |
| Rose505bud at Backcountry.com on 06/27/2008 | |
hood is too small | |

I love everything about this jacket except the hood. It doesn't cover well enough and falls back off my head too often. I prefer an Arc'Teryx where I feel really covered. | |
