This is like a plastic tarp with no breathing/cross-breeze.
It says it's breathable, but it felt like a sauna suit as soon as I put it on.
I'm one sweaty mother farker and I find it pretty breathable. I was worried about the lack of pitt zips but it's just as cool as the eddie bauer one I do have with pitt zips.
*sigh* I didn't need another quality Marmot rain jacket, but here we go again

Huh, seems like a good deal and they actually have my size. Never owned anything Marmot though. I have always stuck to Northface, 5.11 and REI brands for outdoor clothes like this. Looks like the reviews were good at REI though (LINK[rei.com]).
I like mine. Better in the rain than in the cold. The cold seems to cut right through it (I suppose it IS breathable) unless I wear a sweater or long sleeves underneath. With proper layering it's fine. No issues in the Houston rain, though. I'm 6'4, about 220-230lbs and an XL is fine, maybe a little big.

Does this jacket have a fill in it, or is it plastic type layers with little insulation?

For what it's worth I love mine. Got it for a similar price last year.
