Highly functional and stylish |

| I use this jacket for everyday cold/damp weather and for hiking/backpacking. It works great for the damp and chilly everyday wear (no hood so I wouldn't wear it in full rain), but if you do get your blood pumping and it is not truly cold you will notice the lacking breathability. I do like the wind protection and high neck. The sleeve length may feel slightly long but it helps keep you warm and your gloves on with the adjustable cuffs. To me the fit is great as i am a busty woman and don't feel too restrained or floppy in it. |

| This jacket is very good looking. The back flap goes over my bottom somewhat, which I prefer rather than the short jackets that stop just below the waist. Extremely comfortable, protects from the wind and cold. Unzipped it is good in warmer light jacket weather. The dark cherry is beautiful and I get lots of compliments. Sleeves are too long, but with the velcro at the wrists, that is taken care of. This jacket has a close yet loose fit,it definitely is not a second skin as others are.... thank goodnes. |

Great jacket for active person |

| This jacket is great for bike riding on cooler mornings (45 degrees or higher). Is fitted but has enough room for light layering underneath. The collar zips all the way up to the chin so the wind doesn't go down your neck and I love the velcro on the wrists so you can tighten it as much as you want when riding. It has a soft layering on the inside for some warmth and is windproof. The chest puckers out a bit but other than that it's great. |

Columbia wins again! |

| Bought this for a trip to Alaksa this summer, protection from wind & rain, lightweight and comfortable. The fit is trim - size up if you want to layer, and the sleeves are long which is unusual for me - better long than short. Love the bright orange sherbert color - the berry was my first choice but not available in my size. I'm finding more & more Columbia products in my closet. You can't beat the STP price. |

The tag says waterproof. |

| The sleeves are long but the velcro on the cuffs can adjust this. However, the cuffs are very stiff. Otherwise it is a great jacket for outdoor use in cool weather. I bought this jacket because of reading a review which said it had a nice, soft lining, which did not appear in the item discription. The lining is very nice. The tag says waterproof, not water resistant as the description says. |

Love this jacket ! |

| I love this jacket. The color is darker than what I see on my monitor. The black cherry/dahlia color is a darker pink than shown on the site and I like the color and the style even more than what I see online. I am 5'10" (approx 140 lbs) with long arms and this jacket in a size medium is a perfect fit. I'm very happy with this purchase. |

A Sauna in the blizzard |

| So toasty warm, I have no fear of those bitter cold blizzards and high winds that 'flat-landers' know oh-so well. It moves well, and the high neck keeps me warm, no need for a scarf. The only downside is no hood. That would be icing on the cake. The lining is super-soft as well. |

| I purchased the persimmons color- great bright color. I intend to wear this for winter exercise- and want to be "seen" on the road/in the woods (cars and hunters!). I purchased it large to add a layer underneath, and for movement. A very nice light jacket. Can't wait to wear in the snow! |

Exactly what I wanted |

| I wanted a light but warm and wind resistant jacket that I could take travelling and it is perfect. I will be able to make it very warm by adding layers underneath or leave it as a single piece and wear it hiking. Also nice enough to wear out casually. |

| I wear this when I want to look great, and feel comfortable.This jacket moves with me, doesn't restrict my activities. The lining is super- soft, and it is warmer than most light weight jackets. I love this one, another great product from Columbia! |
