Gear Review: Marmot PreCip Pant
I’ve actually been using Marmot’s PreCip rain pant for I believe three seasons now, but they’ve been on my web review backlog list.
Yes, they’re a rain pant (officially), but like the North Face’s Venture gear, the waterproof/breathable Marmot PreCip pushes into technical shell territory—at an absolutely unbeatable price.
Really, it’s kind of unfair to stack these up against a top Gore-Tex shell. I mean, they cost 1/3 as much, and weigh 20-30% less.
Yes, I know, there are situations where only Gore-Tex will do. But for spring mountaineering and backcountry skiing, you just might find these are a perfect fit.
