From REI:
"The Marmot Phoenix is a wonderful around-town and travel jacket for women that protects from the elements without weighing you down. PreCip™ 2.5-layer ripstop nylon is waterproof and highly breathable; all seams are taped for complete protection. Dry Touch™ finish with a new dimensional print reduces condensation, eliminating that clammy feeling. Full visibility hood can be adjusted so as not to block your peripheral vision; independent collar stands up to protect neck even when hood is not being used. DriClime® polyester-lined collar and chin guard wick away moisture and are soft against your skin. PitZips™ allow built-up body moisture to escape. Double storm flaps over front zipper, elastic drawcord hem and adjustable cuffs seal out the wind and rain. Angel-Wing Movement™ sleeve construction allows unrestricted range of motion. Features 2 zippered hand pockets and 1 inside security pocket. Jacket has standard fit for easy layering; long length offers a bit more coverage."

From RockCreek:
"The Phoenix Jacket by Marmot is a lightweight waterproof, breathable jacket made for hiking, backpacking and basically just rainy days. Constructed with PreCip technology that is highly compressible and ventilated so you can stay dry from the inside while also offering a jacket that refuses to allow water particles to enter and efficiently releases moisture when working up a sweat. 100% seam taped for full waterproofness and has a nice comfy DriClime lined collar and chin guard that helps wick moisture when out hiking the summit."

"I hike in the N. GA, TN, and NC mountains during late spring, late summer/early fall. Sometimes late fall. also some hiking in FL. Pretty much during the rainy seasons. I gave my first Pheonix Jacket to a friend (I lost a bet) and regreted it since."

"This jacket is great! Even after six hours of heavy rain I remained resonably dry (I felt just slightly more damp than my REI R2 pants that kept me absolutely DRY). The jacket seems very breathable (much better than my REI pants)and packed down nicely, in my bag. Two thumbs up!"

"Great jacket. Very lightweight, just throw it in your bag and forget about it. Perfect for any weather since it's a layering piece. I've worn it in 5 degree weather with just a sweater on underneath. Awesome product, also extremly water-proof since the seams are taped and the jacket is made out of PreCip material."

"I was looking for a lightweight yet somewhat functional rain jacket. I happened onto the Marmot Oracle and Phoenix jackets. I was drawn to both. However, I gave the Phoenix the nod and was glad I did. The Oracle was very competitive, however, the pockets were too large and awkward."
