Comments about Marmot Afterburner Jacket - Men's:

This jacket continues to surprise me. Every time it put it on I wonder why I bother wearing my softshell. It is warm, windproof, water resistant, and stylish.
There are a few things I would change about this jacket. I wish the pockets were designed to accommodate a harness. The inside fleece is very lightweight and feels cheep. A shock cord on the collar would be great to for extra warmth, and a napoleon is always useful.
Overall this is a great jacket and i would recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality windproof fleece.

A great outer layer on breezy or cool days. I wear it spring skiing. Sleeves are cut a little slim for thicker builds, but overall the fit was right on. It's a great jacket to grab on those cool days when a parka is too much.

This is a very warm and very comfortable jacket yet still remains lite weight--very impressive. It looks great too and would also be great for backcountry use. The wind stopper really does it's job (much better than any other wind inhibiting fleece)
