How are you supposed to accurately predict the weather before leaving your apartment if even the weathermen can't do it most of the time? Marmot's Great Scott jacket eliminates the need for meteorological clairvoyance. It's made from the brand's trademarked Membrain lamination on top of melange ripstop fabric, resulting in exceptionally weather-proof cloth that's still light and breathable.

The seam-taped, two-layer construction also helps, allowing you to stay dry and not sweat yourself silly in the process. The zip-off storm hood and draw cord hem make it easy to add extra protection when you need it, and the estimated 10,000 pockets (ok, not really, but there are a lot) are perfect for whatever it is you want to bring along. Snacks, maybe?
