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.

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.
