The Marmot Nabu jacket

The Marmot Nabu jacket

Marmot’s latest waterproof jacket is the result of another team up with high-tech fabrics from Polartec.

The Nabu uses a combination of NeoShell and Power Dry High Efficiency to offer breathability and high wicking in a lightweight waterproof.

The jacket features NeoShell, which is highly breathable and the latest Power Dry High Efficiency bi-component knit fabric, which is claimed to move moisture away from the body at least 30 per cent more efficiently than single component fabrics.

The jacket also has 100 per cent taped seams, an attached hood with laminated brim, asymmetric cuffs with Velcro adjustment, a chest pocket with water-resistant zip, an internal zip pocked and angel-wing movement, meaning the jacket shouldn’t ride up when the wearer is engaged in activity.

The Marmot Nabu weighs 592g and is available in sizes S to XL, in either black or rocket red.

The Nabu sells for £250.

More information about the Polartec fabrics can be found on the company’s website.
