Versatile stretch softshell fabric and clean, thoughtful engineering make the Marmot Approach for Men an ideal allaround coolweather jacket.
Outstanding jacket
This is a comfortable, all around great jacket for all activities to include cycling, running, hiking or just to wear on a cool night while sitting on the patio. Highly recommend!!
Leadville Jacket from Marmot is better
I have bought both the Approach jacket and the Leadville jacket. Recently, I wore the Approach on a windy & rainy day in Wichita and the temp was about 40 degrees. In short, I became cold quickly. The wind goes right through this jacket. I was disappointed with this tight fitting jacket. Also there is no stretch to this jacket. The Leadville is far superior to the Approach jacket. But if you want a jacket that just looks cool then this is it.
Great Shell for Sports - Running, Biking, Hiking.
Terrific shell can be used as either inner (if you fit it snugly) or outer shell (larger fit) as I have. It's perfect to slice through wind and cold, yet is very breathable, making it perfect for high activity. It's light enough to pack and go along on any trip, bike or run.
