    Fits Like A Glove!

    The arm length is good. The hood is perfect. The pockets are nice and big. It’s not too heavy or too thick.

    Perfect For Rainy Spring Weather

    I bought this jacket for a trip to Ireland in early March and it was the best decision I could have made. I was looking for a jacket that was warm, waterproof, and could be layered under. This did everything I wanted it too. It was big enough to layer a sweater under it, kept me warm in the wind and dry in the constant rain. I sized up from my usual large to an extra large to have room for layers and the fit was perfect.

    Nice Jacket But Runs Big

    This is really nice jacket. I have been looking for a long-ish fleece lined waterproof coat for commuting to work and for travel. This jackt told have been perfect if t weren’t so big. I ordered a small because all of my Columbia jackets and fleeces are a small. This coat was very big.l everywhere: shoulders too wide, arms too long, waist and hips too big even with the sides cinched in. For reference I am 5 feet tall and 112 lbs. unfortunately will be returning.

    Love The Weight

    I live in Europe and had been looking for an insulated jacket for the rainy, chilly but not cold winters. This jacket is perfect for that. It is the perfect weight and warmth and I do not have to layer too much unless I want to (like when it’s colder, for example). I normally wear an L in shirts, etc. but decided to buy an XL for room to layer. As others said, it’s a bit boxy, but I think it’s fine. However, I feel there are a couple design flaws that could be taken into consideration for a next version. The draw cords around the waist are oddly placed. As I sized up (to allow room to layer), I tightened the waist. But this leaves the loops of the cords dangling and then sleeves can get caught when putting hands in pockets. They would have been better placed towards the front or inside. The draw cords for the hood are oddly placed on the inside which sits strangely against the skin when hood is up. This also makes it difficult to adjust on the go when it’s raining. Lastly, I would have preferred the fleece lining to go up through the collar for a bit of extra warmth/softness (maybe even the hood). Otherwise, I love the jacket and would definitely buy again.

    Flattering, Versatile

    This jacket is great quality and useful for so many different weather/temp situations. Also quite stylish and flattering. My only qualm: I am 5'8" and wish it were a couple inches longer all around.

    Great Jacket

    I need a real waterproof jacket for Seattle and this is everything I wanted and more. The style is nice without being over the top but still fashionable. I did order smaller(large) than recommended (X-Large) and glad I did, the sleeves of the bigger size were comical on me! Love that the pockets are deep and zip!

    Cute But Small Around Hips

    Cute style but the hip/thigh area of columbia jackets need more room for comfort and curvy women.

    Warm

    This is jacket is surprisingly warm, although for single digit temps, you have to layer. I sized up to accommodate a sweater or a hoodie. It’s light and I like the length.

    It's Ok

    The top is boxy giving you an oversized look on top. Plenty of roo. To layer . The bottom is narrow so you have to keep the zipper open to give you room. To comfortably move . It ok

    Best Pnw Jacket!

    I got this jacket for the cool wet PNW winter, and it’s perfect. I love the length, the color, and adjustable features. Unlike a lot of Columbia jackets, there is room to layer underneath, which I really appreciate. And it’s super stylish- I received two compliments from strangers the first time I wore it!

    Perfect Pnw Jacket

    This jacket meets my PNW needs. It's perfect protection against rain and wind while walking my dog or hanging out on the beach. It's soft, comfortable, and seems to be well constructed. My only complaint is that I had to size up in order for the bottom to zip. The bottom is more fitted and now the top is a bit bulky. I'm short and curvy and usually wear a medium in jackets, but had to purchase a large. Even with the odd fit, I still think it looks stylish.

    Cute!

    [Employee of columbia] This jacket is so cute! It feels modern, elegant, and perfect for walking around the city. I love the shape with the waist cinched and the soft fleece inside, it's going to be so cozy when it's raining out. The hips could be larger but it still fits.
