Founded in 1974 by three young mountaineers in Colorado, Marmot began as a scrappy operation born from a shared passion for the outdoors. The brand's breakthrough came from its early and innovative adoption of GORE-TEX fabric, making it one of the first and oldest partners of the material in the outdoor market and cementing its reputation for technical performance. An early order for 108 puffy jackets for the Clint Eastwood film *The Eiger Sanction* further established its presence.
