Quick Specs

  • Fit: Relaxed
    xFitChoose the right fit!
    Slim: These garments fit close through the body or legs for a sleek, sexy, or athletic look.
    Relaxed: Also known as "regular," these garments fit just right, not too baggy or not too slim.
    Loose: Also known as baggy, loose-fitting garments allow for ultra-free body movement.
  • Warmth: 1/10
    xWarmthOur warmth rating comes from a combination of the insulation type and thickness or weight of the insulation, and how this combined with the garment design affects heat loss and your overall warmth.

    Items with higher ratings will be warmer, and will offer you more protection in colder temperatures.
  • Waterproofing: 10/10
    xWaterproofingOur waterproof rating is based on the fabric's waterproof rating, and how well the overall construction prevents water seepage.

    Items with lower ratings are water-repellent, and good for light-snow conditions. Items with higher ratings will be more waterproof, and can protect you in wetter conditions.

Q:
"I am 6'1" and 190 pounds with a 42 inch chest and 33 inch waist. If I was to use this jacket with layers would you recommend large or XL?"

Question by Geoff on 9/9/2012 - 7:18 pm
A:
"Based off of your measurements I would go with the size Large. Marker is generous with their sizing, these jackets are not totally fitted like other brands, so you should be fine with a size large, even with layering."

Question by keith on 11/8/2012 - 11:38 am
A:
"This jacket does not have a two-way zipper. I would recommend the large, the medium would be too tight around your chest area. "

Q:
"I am trying to compare this jacket to the Katahdin and have some questions, this jacket is rated higher in waterproofing and moisture removal but does not have pit zips. Is the better breathing fabric enough to offset not having ventilation? "

Question by Curt on 1/1/2013 - 8:46 pm
A:
"The Marker Empire Shell Ski Jacket does have pit zips like the Obermeyer Katahdin Shell Ski Jacket. Yes, the fabrics used, can make a big difference, of how breathable a jacket can be. "

Ordered red XXL. Beautiful jacket, well made good features but was small on me. I have other Marker jackets in XXL and they fit perfectly, this one was very tight once zipped. If it fit I would have rated it 5 out of 5. Had to return for a refund. Great service at Peter Glenn
