M2
Marmot M-series fabrics are designed for moving light and fast. They combine stretchable, water repellent, abrasion resistant and highly breathable shell materials with insulating buffer materials on the inside.
M2 shells are the ideal balance between weather resistance, breathability and thermal protection. They are appropriate for a wide range of aerobic use in moderate to cold conditions.

WINDSTOPPER®
WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shells offer total windproofness and maximum breathability, combining the comfort of a soft mid-layer and the water resistance of a shell in one garment. WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shells keep you comfortable and provide the freedom of movement you need for enhanced performance in a wide range of activities and weather conditions.
Constructed of soft, quiet, stretchy fabrics, WINDSTOPPER® protects your body’s warmth from the chilling effects of wind and weather and prevents overheating and perspiration build-up by allowing moisture vapor to easily escape. The unique WINDSTOPPER® membrane totally stops wind from penetrating the fabric while allowing moisture to escape unhindered for 2X more breathability than comparable windproof products.
With this 3-layer construction, the WINDSTOPPER® membrane is bonded between a high performance fabric such as robust, high-quality stretch polyester on one side, and a quick-drying polyester fleece on the other. The durable water repellent finish offers additional weather protection.
Designed for an active fit, WINDSTOPPER® performs well in outdoor activities, such as hiking, backpacking, cycling, hunting, mountain sports, skiing, snowboarding and trekking in weather conditions, including: strong winds, light snow and rain.

Amazing! Tried it on at REI and fell in love. Taking it out for a hike this weekend - rain or shine.

Great vest for anything you could imagine short of swimming. Very water repellent and you never feel wind. keeps the core very warm for as light as it is. Plenty of pockets. Great job Marmot!

I recently purchased the Leadville vest for morning cycling rides as the weather is getting cooler. I love this vest! The Windstopper fabric keeps the wind from chilling my core and it's breathability keeps me dry. Great fit for the bike; the lenght is perfect and the drawstrings keep it close and prevents the vest from riding up. Great Marmot quality!

My favorite vest, hands down. It packs quite small yet the windstopper fabric makes it incredibly helpful in keeping the core warm in windy places. The material is semi-stretchy, so it flows with the activity. This is my go-to for chilly climbing days as it provides a great balance of warmth and breathability when I'm getting pumped on a climb most people would have no trouble with. I must declare that I am a part of the Gore Mountaintechs product testing program. However this item was purchased apart from the program and my knowledge of the technology only makes me appreciate this vest further. It truly is a great piece of equipment. The one weakness I've found is that the zippers aren't super durable. I blew one out in the first month I owned it, now I have to remember to not close that pocket all the way or terrible things could happen...
