Marmot gained popularity a few decades ago when its iconic Mammoth Parka garnered global attention and the public made it a highly sought after jacket during the colder seasons of the year. Once again, the brand decides to release the iconic jacket in a slew of bright color palettes as winter begins to roll around the corner.
It was originally designed as a basecamp coat and later was nicknamed "Big Boy" because of the oversized silhouette of the coat. It became a staple option in New York City and the jacket now returns in six color options. It is insulated with 700 fill-power down and is now offered in black and Citronelle, crocodile and scotch, red, clear blue, cherry tomato, and some neutrals.
