How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for skiing
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 January 2021
Size Name: MColour Name: BlackVerified Purchase
With Columbia you can never go wrong. This is by far the best winter jacket I ever bought. I use it everyday for cycling in winter, very warm casual jacket, slim and lightweight so you can wear layers underneath it (if you need to). I personally wear it with a thin jumper as its reflective lining reflect body hear therefore keeps you very warm. The jacket is also breathable and waterproof, I tested it in the rain and it kept me dry. The hood is also handy and warm and doesn’t slid off. Overall I’m really happy with my purchase, highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ski jacket

Size Name: XLColour Name: BlackVerified Purchase
Ordered XL for daughter, who is normally 16/18, would not fit, way too small. This is largest size, I tried on I’m normally 14, and fitted me perfectly to allow jumper underneath, so order larger size, I will have to send back.
The jacket itself was lovely, well made and looked wonderful
Such a shame about sizing

5.0 out of 5 stars SUPER, SMART AND COSY

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
Requested the coat with my daughter in mind, with winter just around the corner (to be
honest not so warm now) and her having to take her youngster to school in all weather's
considered this insulated /waterproof coat would be an asset.
With an adjustable hood, sleeve cuffs and removable faux fur dependant on the temperature
along with some handy pockets and internal key-clip among the features, the coat is quite
simply smart and handy and will be of great benefit to her (and of course to those who make
the investment by purchasing it)
If you, like my daughter have to go out in all weathers, you'd not regret owning the coat.
My daughter tried it on, looks good and she's very pleased with it.

Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
I gave this to my partner and has been using the jacket for her walks to keep herself warm and dry. She is very pleased with the jacket it is of superb quality. The jacket fits her nicely however she does recommend going up 1 size as they do come up smaller. She recently wore it on a 5 mile trek into my local forest the temperature was 7 degrees and it was raining this jacked performed brilliantly kept her protected from the weather elements. There are lots of pockets which are handy it is also well insulated and has great movability this allowed her at some points to lightly jog and she felt comfortable whilst moving. Normally performance and sports jackets don’t usually look this good but this Columbia jacket looks great and you could wear this as your casual winter jacket. Overall I am very impressed with the ski jacket.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not just for skiing ...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 April 2021
Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
Very snug jacket that you'd use not just for skiing, but in any bad weather. Biggest hitch is the sizing. You'd need to order one (possibly even two) size(s) up.

But other than that it's fine in all bad weather. Perfect for walking on winter days, stylish enough to wear around town and the shops. Reasonably lightweight.

Well made, durable. Has pockets too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great winter/ski jacket
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 November 2020
Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
As you would expect from a Columbia branded jacket, the workmanship of this is great. Attention to detail and a great design.
Pockets are deep and storage aplenty.

The design on the inside of the jacket gives an added sense of elegance to a usually drab lining.
Very well made and the size fits as per the size guide.

The faux fur lining on the hood is thick and the drawstrings are very well made. For the price point, this is a superb ski/winter jacket.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps you warm and dry
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 October 2020
Vine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
This jacket keeps you very warm and dry, not just great for the ski slopes but fantastic for the English weather. Thin enough not to get you to warm even in warm conditions and the insulated liner works amazingly well. Really good fit and excellent little clips on the inside of the pockets to keep things safe.
Not to sure about the price it does appear to be a little expensive but I would definitely recommend if your in the market for a very good all round jacket.

4.0 out of 5 stars migliorabile
Reviewed in Italy on 6 February 2021
Size Name: LColour Name: BlackVerified Purchase
Questa giacca leggermente isolata è perfetta solo per la mezza stagione o per inverni miti. Con temperature rigide è assolutamente inadeguata perché ha pochissimo isolamento, è di fatto più un guscio che una giacca isolata. La linea è molto bella, la qualità Columbia eccellente come al solito, ma non compratela pensando di acquistare una giacca per il freddo perché rischiate di restare delusi. Non aspettatevi nemmeno miracoli dalla fodera termoriflettente, sia perchè mancando un isolamento degno di questo nome non riesce a dare il meglio di sè, sia perché non è vero che ricopre l'interno della giacca: c'è solo una striscia sulla schiena e una striscia davanti, è un po' scarsa per fare la differenza (ho altre giacche Columbia dove la fodera è ovunque e la differenza si sente!). È molto comoda, completamente elasticizzata, una buona lunghezza.
Ha solo 3 difetti:
- la cerniera si apre solo in una direzione
- le tasche interne sono 2 ma inspiegabilmente le hanno sovrapposte (!) sul lato destro. quindi se le usate entrambe sarà non solo scomodissimo ma avrete un aspetto asimmetrico
- mancano le cerniere per la ventilazione ascellare
Questa giacca è stata concepita per essere un ibrido tra una giacca da città e una giacca da sci, ha la ghetta antineve e la tasca per skipass ma manca una ventilazione che permetta di usarla davvero per fare sport, ed è un difetto gravissimo, fa sudare con ogni attività un minimo sostenuta (è pur sempre una giacca impermeabile senza ventilazione!), e l'abbiamo trovata scomoda per questo motivo anche solo per fare trekking con scarsa pendenza. Tuttavia permette una buona libertà nei movimenti, è davvero confortevole. In città invece è perfetta, perché è piuttosto elegante e non sembra una giacca tecnica, ma la ghetta antineve non si può togliere e anche il cappuccio è fisso, cosa che la rende un po' troppo sportiva e poco adattabile. Il pelo del cappuccio si può togliere ma restano a vista dei bottoncini di plastica trasparente bruttini e fastidiosi da vedere. È un'ottima giacca di qualità, ma la sua natura ibrida la penalizza sia sul fronte sportivo sia su quello cittadino. Nonostante i suoi limiti è fatta molto bene e la consiglio, è un ottimo jolly da tenere a portata di mano per ogni occasione. Se è necessario usarla al freddo la si può trattare da guscio: abbinata ad un piumino leggero l'isolamento diventa perfetto (peccato manchi la ventilazione).

1.0 out of 5 stars Entra el agua por las costuras de los codos.
Reviewed in Spain on 9 December 2021
Size Name: SColour Name: BlackVerified Purchase
Compré esta cazadora como regalo para que en el puente de diciembre pudiéramos ir al monte a disfrutar de la nieve.
Uno de los días que estuvimos allí en vez de nevar, llovió y no fue otra la sorpresa que el jersey que llevaba puesto mi pareja por dentro de la cazadora acabó con las mangas caladas, ya que, al parecer entra agua por unas costuras situadas en los codos.
No se si es porque en concreta la cazadora salió defectuosa de fábrica o está mal diseñada, pero en conclusión. ESTA CAZADORA NO VALE PARA DÍAS LLUVIOSOS.

Muy contenta con la compra, la nueva tecnología que tiene para dar/mantener el calor funciona! Es una chamarra fina en comparación con otras del estilo eso me sorprendío bastante y no estaba segura de que abrigarse pero todo lo contrario abriga un montón y te permite libertad de movimiento. Muy contenta.
