MARMOT
|
Marmot is a renowned American brand of clothing, technical apparel, and outdoor equipment, specially designed for mountaineering, climbing, skiing, and hiking. The brand was founded in 1971 by Eric Reynolds and Dave Huntley, students at the University of California, Santa Cruz, during a glaciological exploration and research trip in Alaska. This explains its focus on technological innovation, historically being the world's oldest customer to use Gore-Tex® membranes. Marmot remains a global leader in technical clothing and mountain equipment, operating under the umbrella of the American conglomerate Newell Brands. |
Why Choose MARMOT Apparel and accessories
Historic Innovation in Waterproofing
Marmot was the first brand in the world to incorporate the GORE-TEX® membrane into its mountain products in 1976 after testing prototypes in industrial freezers. Decades later, they continue to use high-end membranes like Gore-Tex Pro Shell, combined with their own highly efficient and lightweight technologies such as MemBrain.
Mastery of Thermal Insulation
The brand was born making sleeping bags and down jackets in the 1970s, and insulation remains its greatest strength. Unlike other competitors, Marmot offers transparency in its materials, precisely detailing the grams per square meter, the denier of its fabrics, and the exact weight of its fills.
Excellent Cost-Benefit Ratio
While ultra-premium brands demand a very high investment, Marmot offers technical jackets with top-quality fabrics at much more accessible prices for the average consumer, becoming the gold standard for trekking.
Environmental Commitment
Sustainable lines feature technologies like PreCip Eco and EVODry, made with recycled nylon and water-repellent treatments completely free of harmful PFCs.
