Customer Reviews Marmot Novus LT Hybrid Hoodie

I originally gave this a 3 star review without testing the jacket long enough. I have come to really appreciate its attributes. It is well made, looks great, and keeps me very warm while walking down to 30F with a mid layer underneath. I asked Marmot to remove my original review because I felt it was unfair, however they declined, shows honesty.

I wore the Arc'tryx Atom LT for a year and also had the Patagonia Nano air for a time, I like this jacket better than both. It is warm and has everything I was looking for in a jacket. Just bought my second one in the new blue color! I'm 6'4" and have a black jacket in size large that fits snug, I just bought an XL in blue which gives me more room for an underlayer.

Looks nice and seems well made. Wore it for the first time yesterday. When I left the house it was 48F and the jacket was ok. On my way home it was 36F. I was very cold. This might be fine for a layer under or over something else, however as a stand alone jacket over a shirt, I would delegate it for 45 F and above if you run cold. Now if your active, (hiking, skiing, running, then you might be good down into the mid 30,s without another insulating layer. I personally was hoping for a little warmer jacket.

Light weight, stylish. Good fit and color as shown.

Really nice Hoodie! It's so light but very warm! Reliable quality and the Jacket is true to fit.

Top shelf jacket. Light weight yet warm. Will get lots of use in a variety of weather.

This is a great, light weight, but warm jacket. I wish the wrists had velcro closers. I got this on sale and I think it's a decent jacket for hiking and biking. I sized up because the sleeve on the large felt a little snug with layers. It's the jacket that hits the sweet spot of not too heavy & just warm enough in my opinion.

Worked well at 25F-35F as a midlayer for snowboarding along with a shell anorak and a base layer. It will probably work a little colder but plan on wearing the Novus (traditional) hoodie for when it gets below 20F. Really like the flexibility and fit. Despite being made of nylon, it is soft and comfortable against skin. Does not tug at the shoulders when doing windmills and moving my arms around. The body fits great and is flattering around a non-6pack belly. As mentioned by other reviewers, the forearms are too tight and the arm length could be just a hint longer. While I am enjoying this jacket very much, the forearms are tight enough that I still have my eye open for a replacement, though everything so far is coming up way short. I also wear this around 50F when going into town, or sometimes around the house at 68F when I am a little chilled. Have washed once and it washed well. It is even softer than original.

Great Jacket. Fit well except the color block in the chest area look awkward so I had to return

Certainly a decent contender for the price. Much warmer than expected. If moving at a normal hiking pace I personally would say this is good to mid 20's. I have checked twice to make sure it's the LT. Reasonably well made. Maybe not as technical as a higher end brand but a great jacket for the 95 percent of us that won't be hanging off a Cliff face this afternoon while we walk the dog.

Great jacket in every way except for the cut of the sleeves, they ride up my arms if i reach forward (so cycling, climbing, basically doing anything active is a problem) Reaching backwards is fine, I think they just cut the jacket poorly

This is a quality item. But it was made with a mistake - the shoulder width is small, and seems like a size smaller. Because of this, the sleeves are also short, it is impossible to wear something tighter than T-shirts.
