versatile rain jacket for moderate activity
I think Marmot classifies this as an "urban" jacket, and that is exactly right. It is excellent rainwear for its intended purpose, which is casual to moderately active use. The jacket is cut quite full and the smooth lining allows it to slip on easily, even over a sport coat. The simple, clean styling without patches or ornamentation also makes it versatile enough to wear around town. The fabric is waterproof in anything short of a torrential downpour (I actually haven't tried it in one) and breathes well, too. The only limitation of this jacket would be for extremely active use, when one of Marmot's more rugged garments with pit zips would be a better choice. It's well made, too.

Quality Waterproof Shell
Also picked up this jacket when it was on sale, since I needed a light waterproof jacket for everyday use. Kept me dry in rainy conditions, and the hood is large enough to keep the rain out of your face, but it does cut down on your peripheral vision a bit. Nice big pockets, especially the hidden pocket along the zipper, under the flap.
