From the Sierra Nevadas to the European Alps, Marmot is designed and tested by those obsessed with the great outdoors. Ground-breaking designs in down sleeping bags and jackets are the foundation of Marmot, and they continue to embellish their production of top-quality tents, packs, bags, gloves, base layers, technical outerwear, and rainwear. Spectacular accomplishments such as Gore-Tex ® insulation and water resistance, Marmot Microclimates, and DriClime® Base Layers make Marmot sleeping bags and tents what they are today. Presently, Marmot is one of the few outdoor companies that has its own internal prototype seamstresses and pattern maker. Nearly all ideas composed by the artists at Marmot are able to be implemented in-house.
