riding up Marmot Down
Marmot often says that "down is in our ." The company was
founded in 1974 as a manufacturer and seller of premium down
jackets, vests, and ing bags, and continues to use fine
quality goose down for its insulated outdoor products.
aineers and outdoor enthusiasts the world over rely on
Marmot down gear for warmth, comfort, and sometimes survival.
Down quality is determined by fill power and durability, which
is dependent upon the age and maturity of the bird and the
processing of the down. The best down comes from larger, more
mature birds and goose down is generally better than duck down.
More mature goose down has larger filament clusters than less
mature goose down and these clusters, when grouped, provide many
more trapped air pockets and therefore provide better insulation.
To maximize the effectiveness of the down clusters, proper
processing of the down -- sorting, washing, and drying -- is
required to open them up.
Higher fill power means higher loft, better insulation, lighter
weight, and greater durability. Marmot tests all of its down for
content, cleanliness, species, and fill power, guaranteeing
minimum fill power for all down clothing and ing bags.
Lifetime Warranty
Marmot products include a limited lifetime manufacturer's
warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
About Marmot
In April 1971, University of California Santa Cruz students Eric
Reynolds and Dave Huntley were in Alaska on the Juneau ice fields
for a Glaciology school project. This was where the idea of
Marmot, originally a collegiate climbing club, began. Reynolds
and Huntley soon began making prototypes of down products such as
vests and ing bags in their dorm room in Santa Cruz. By the
spring of 1973, Reynolds and Huntley partnered with fellow
climber Tom Boyce to open a modest rental and retail location,
named Marmot ain Works, in a 100-year-old building in Grand
Junction, Colorado.
Their first large order was for 108, as the producer called
them, ""very puffy jackets"" for the movie The Eiger Sanction,
with Clint Eastwood, which helped make down outerwear
fashionable. In 1976, Marmot was one of the first companies to
recognize the value of a new technology being developed by W.L.
Gore & Associates. Marmot was soon producing waterproof Gore-Tex
ing bags, with Reynolds and Huntley testing early prototypes
by ing in meat lockers and under fire sprinklers, and later
introduced the waterproof/breathable fabric into nearly all
Marmot products.
From humble beginnings, Marmot and its product line have grown
over the years, and today the company is headquartered in Rohnert
Park, California, with offices all over the world and
distribution in more than 60 countries.
