Review on Marmot Men's Ether Driclime ๐Ÿงฅ Vest - Enhancing Performance and Comfort by Richard Turner

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My favorite vest for active wear!

This is my third Marmot Dryclime and I am sorry it has been discontinued. Sharing many Marmot pieces in different fabrics and insulating properties, the Driclime vest is my active garment when I need moisture wicking and wind protection over a base layer or under a fleece jacket. If you are looking for a warm casual vest, this may not be for you. This is a lightweight, very thin vest, not a down jacket. This vest shines from a technical point of view when worn, so when you need something to warm your core during active activities in the cold. This vest has three important qualities: first, the moisture-wicking lining keeps you dry; secondly, the polyester outer shell does not let drafts through; and third, the vest's design allows your arms (which tend to overheat due to the long sleeves) to dissipate heat when your body starts to heat up. The Driclime lining can "stick" to the materials underneath when you first put it on, but that annoyance is offset by the fact that each outer layer slides easily over the vest thanks to its smooth finish. Highly recommended!
