Is the Onward Insulated Hoody warm enough for winter?

It is a light layer with 60g insulation, so it works for cool fall and spring days or as a midlayer under a shell. For freezing or deep-winter conditions, pair it with a heavier outer layer.

Does it work as a midlayer under a rain jacket?

Yes. The thin ripstop shell and light insulation keep bulk down, so it fits under most hardshells. The synthetic fill keeps some warmth if it gets damp.

Is the insulation down or synthetic?

Synthetic. It uses 60g Thermal R polyester insulation, which is recycled and keeps insulating when wet, unlike down.

The insulated hoody only. No stuff sack or extra accessories are listed.

How does it compare with a down jacket?

It is lighter and handles damp conditions better, but a comparable down jacket is warmer for its weight. Choose the Onward for wet, active use and down for cold, dry static warmth.

Our take on the Marmot Onward Insulated Hoody

The Marmot Onward Insulated Hoody is a lightweight synthetic puffy with a 100% recycled nylon ripstop shell and 60g recycled Thermal R insulation. It packs small and layers easily under a shell, and the C0 DWR sheds light rain and snow. It suits hikers, climbers and commuters who want warmth without bulk. Against heavier down jackets it trades some warmth for wet-weather performance and a lower weight; against lighter fleeces it adds real insulation and a hood.
