Why We Love the Marmot Ares Vest
The Marmot Ares Vest is our top pick for its unbeatable lightweight design and exceptional warmth provided by its 600-fill down insulation. Whether you're camping or simply enjoying a frosty morning, this vest will keep you cozy and comfortable inside your tent.
Designed with a durable polyester ripstop shell, the Marmot Ares Vest is perfect for those who lead an active lifestyle. It can easily withstand rough use while bushwhacking through the forest or being stuffed into your backpack.
What sets this vest apart is Marmot's innovative Down Defender technology. This game-changing feature prevents moisture and rainy weather from compromising the loft of the down insulation, ensuring reliable warmth even in the wettest conditions. With the Marmot Ares Vest, you can confidently explore the great outdoors in cold weather.
The polyester mini ripstop shell not only adds durability but also efficiently traps warmth, making it ideal for chilly weather. Additionally, the vest is treated with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating, ensuring that rain slides right off and keeping you dry and comfortable.
Aside from its exceptional performance, the Marmot Ares Vest also boasts timeless colorways that effortlessly transition from street to peak. Whether you're heading out for a hike or simply running errands, this vest is a must-have for any outdoor enthusiast.
