Good jacket for layering!I bought this jacket a month or so ago and overall I really like it. Recommend as a lightweight easy jacket, seems especially great for layering with a heavy jacket during the winter.
Pro: It’s super lightweight and the thumb holes are great! Pretty wind resistant and stylish considering.
Cons: I’ve worn it a handful of times and it’s already starting to pill really bad on the arms and hand openings. For as expensive as this jacket is, I would not expect that kind of wear to show at all, let alone after a month.
Overall I like it - but maybe for $75-100.

Bring back the old Variant Jacket!I've owned multiple Marmot women's Variant jackets and loved them. Perfect lightweight jacket. this new version, however, is just terrible. What is with the collar? It's like giant lapels, and if you zip all the way, it's too high, even for me and I have a long neck. The sleeves are too long and the torso is too long as well. Really disappointing. I hope Marmot brings back the old style/cut of this jacket.

Great under the EVODry CloudsRest JacketI have an EVODry Clouds Rest Jacket in Royal Night and black. I needed an under layer or two. The matching blue Variant Hybrid Jacket is perfect in color match, comfort, fit and warmth. It is an insulated vest with attached soft, stretchy sleeves. Along with a bright yellow down vest between these layers. I was able to be comfortable in wicked low temps with a wicked wind. (Maine-speak!) For most of my winter hiking, snowshoeing, skiing, and lake skating, just the two layers of the EVODry jacket and Variant Hybrid were all I needed. I purchased one size larger each jacket based on the recommendation of customer service. Glad I did because the fit was perfect for active winter sports. Plus, the outer jacket was long enough to sit with protection.

Cute, comfortable running jacket.Great winter running jacket in such a vibrant color (I got the light blue). I have been warm and comfortable while wearing this jacket. It seems to be best for temperatures right around freezing if you are running, or 50 degrees if walking. The wind didn't bother me while running, but I did feel chilly at times when walking in freezing temperatures. I highly recommend it.

Low quality jacketI owned a Variant for several years and it was amazing, but the quality on this newer version is not nearly as good as it used to be. It seemed much more flimsy and for the price point of this jacket I would expect something much better. Plus, the sleeves are extremely long. I returned this and will look for something else.

Jacket for warmer weather.The size and fit were perfect! Love the extra high collar. Was surprised by the weight of the jacket- much lighter than expected. Would only wear if over 50 degrees outside. Would use as a middle layer in cooler temperatures.

Decline in qualityI own one from several years ago which I love. The quality is high and it is well made. The new one doesn't have an inside pocket. The zipper broke after I wore it 3 times.
