Summary:
The Marmot Ama Dablam Down Jacket for women is a fashionable down jacket equally at home in the resort as on the slopes. With 800 fill real down, you stay warm well below freezing and even in blustery winds. If you plan on being in a storm however, bring along an outer shell to protect from moisture, this jacket is certainly not waterproof and down doesn’t do well when wet. With amazing features like a helmet compatible and adjustable hood, a zippered arm pocket, and a self contained inner pocket/stuff sack, this jacket is the real deal.
