- Is the PreCip Evo Flex good for hiking?
- Yes. It is designed for hiking, with a waterproof, breathable membrane, a stretch face fabric and an adjustable hood. It suits day hikes and light rain better than sustained downpours or heavy packs.
- How does it compare with the classic Marmot PreCip?
- The Evo Flex adds stretch and a softer feel but gives up some packability. The classic PreCip is lighter and simpler; the Evo Flex moves better on the trail.
- Does it have pit zips?
- No. Venting comes from the breathable membrane and the front zip, so it can feel warm on hard climbs.
- What sizes does it come in?
- It is offered in women's sizes XS through XL, including US 14, in a straight fit. Reviewers say it runs trim through the shoulders, so consider sizing up if you layer heavily.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash cold and tumble dry low. Tumble drying helps reactivate the water-repellent finish; avoid fabric softener and bleach.
- What is in the box?
- The jacket only. It has a hood, two zippered hand pockets, Velcro cuffs and a full front zip.
