[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect jacket for both spring and winter. The jacket alone is perfect for those cool spring mornings, put the vest in for really cold days.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this jacket for a New England weekend trip. It was perfect for "April showers" and cooler weather. Love the look and fit. Thank you Columbia!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great jacket! Also has a vest. Is warm too. Great price as well.

Keeps me warm without being bulky. Nice to have the option of wearing only the vest as well. I really appreciate that the sleeves are long enough.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprised at how stiff the outer material is and how long the sleeves.
Pam
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great jacket! So versatile and perfect for a climate like ours where it is really cold in the morning but warms up considerably by mid day. Being able to wear the full jacket to start but end up with just the vest later on is a major plus! The jacket is stylish and so well made. I love it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice jacket. I ordered large which is my regular size. Fit was good but can’t layer up much. Used for hiking at high 30-40 temps and I was warm. I think this will be good for skiing. The shell does make some noise but not too bad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great coat. It’s both a coat and vest and it’s warm without being too thick and bulky.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent jacket, very well made, materials are solid, it runs small so you might need one size up.

The other reviewers hit all the key points: noisy fabric, sleeves too long, velcro at sleeves too short, vest fits odd (tight under the armpits and poofy above the shoulders). For me, the jacket was overall too big/boxy except at the lowest part of my hips... and there isn't any mechanism to cinch the waist and create a more flattering fit. The pockets are pretty great, and the white color is also nice (though it doesn't have a noticeable "sheen" like the other colors). A buyer needs to understand that the underneath item is a vest and the outer jacket sleeves are very thin. However, this makes for a pretty decent spring time (California!) rain jacket. I'm returning it since the positives don't outweigh the negatives for me.

Perfect coat for cycling in the cold weather. Keeps me warm, but not too warm.

Jacket looks as pictured. I must concur with another reviewer about it being "noisy", it indeed makes crinkly sounds during movement, but I don't find that overly offensive. It's funny. I was disappointed with the thinness of the sleeves. Thrilled about the length though. My daughter is 5'10 and finding items slim AND long enough is challenging. I have like 4 other Columbia jackets and I would rank this one my least favorite. If you're in the market for a loud, long and thin-sleeved jacket, then this is the one for you!! I haven't seen it on her yet because it's a gift, but I tried it on for reference. I'm 5'7, 32D, and 135 athletic build and M fit with space for more layering and the sleeves reach right to my knuckles.

Got this as a replacement for my old Columbia coat that was no longer waterproof. However, the arms were really long so I went in store to try a smaller size of a similar style (they didn't have the exact model in store). Unfortunately, the arms were just as long on this smaller size also. They're so long they hit just above my knuckles, and get in the way when trying to do anything with my hands. I am not short so this is not a problem I have ever had - usually long sleeves are always slightly too short on me. You can also tell in the model photo that the arms have been pushed up so they don't look so long in the photo. This is confusing. For a coat at this price, it needs to fit perfectly so I'm not terribly happy with it.

I purchased this and although I really liked it, I couldn’t get past the fact it was so loud putting it on. My husband even commented on the noise when I tried it on. He joked “so much for sneaking up on somebody”. I sent it back today even though I really liked it. The material inside literally reminds me of the silver crinkly lining in one of those soft coolers you use for groceries. If that won’t bother you, it is a comfortable coat.
