User Review: Marmot Big Parka

Marmot Big Parka
Above: The current Big Parka, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Fabric: Gore
Fill: Down (700)
Price Paid: $398

I have owned NF outerwear for decades and seen the quality go down while their popularity skyrocketed. This parka is the warmest most well thought out and put together I have ever owned. The combination of down and Gore Tex is what I was looking for and does not disappoint.

The magnetic closures allow you to open or close your jacket without taking gloves or mittens off to close an old fashioned snap. Also won't have to worry about pulling a snap out and having to get it repaired. Sitting thru a 4 hour NFL game in 10 degree weather with snow flying was actually enjoyable.

I have owned it for less than 2 months but wish I'd bought it years ago. It's not the most stylish, but you won't be cold or wet regardless of the weather and that is what a parka's job is all about.
