Marmot® For Life #5 Available FREE now

The fifth issue of Marmot® For Life magazine is available to pick up FREE in our stores now.

Highlighting the heritage and focus of the brand through the adventures of its European sponsored athletes, it features some inspiring names and locations you may not have heard of. More than just a glorified product catalogue the magazine, nevertheless, details the technology behind the clothing being used in the extreme environments visited.
Marmot's mission is inspired by the alpinist spirit of adventure to search and achieve in a harsh world with products that are simple, appropriate, dependable and good looking and this is equally applied to the items we stock from their range that are suited to the qualities of the British climate and terrain.
Marmot Life is written in German with corresponding English translations. There is only one part of it that's Lost in Translation, at least for me. If anyone can explain the significance of "DJ Mullet" on the partner advert  for K2 ski boots on page 67 I'd be very pleased to hear. You'll need to collect a copy to see what I mean!
