The Marmot Ridge Tech 1/2 Zip is a men's midlayer built from a stretchy waffle-knit jacquard blend of cotton, recycled polyester, and elastane, with a smooth interior and a textured face. Its half-zip closure lets you vent heat quickly, while side panels and dropped shoulder seams add mobility and reduce chafing under a pack. A kangaroo pocket and a zippered pocket keep small essentials within reach, and the regular fit is cut for layering.
With a 28-inch center back length and a lightweight 16-ounce build, it works as a midlayer for camp, bouldering, or trail days. The fabric is machine washable and tumble dry low for easy care.
