New with tags Marmot Hampton Jacket. Size Medium. Color Steel Onyx (Grey). Personal thoughts on this parka: I use this model jacket as my primary winter coat and can vouch for the amazing warmth and utility of this jacket. I live in NYC and have worn it in the bitter cold the city has experienced this past month, as well as the recent 27 inch blizzard. The jacket has performed fantastically well. It's great for commuting (bus, train, and walking around the city) and I was able to go out in the blizzard with just a t-shirt under it. Another critical point is that it's also lighter than most of the other high end parkas, like the Fjallraven Kyl Parka (76.2 oz.), the Canada Goose Expedition Parka (82.4 oz.) or the Nobis Parka (Don't have a weight but it weighs a lot!). The Marmot only weighs 51 oz.! While still feeling very significant, it won't tire you out or over heat you like some of those other jackets. At $600 retail, it's the best bang for your buck for high end down parkas. This jacket is a steal at the price I'm offering it for. The Hampton Jacket is a hooded, taped, down-filled jacket designed to brave even New York winters. Utilizing Marmot MemBrain
