Love this fleece! I love these fleece jackets -- I now own 7! They are a perfect weight and so cozy. They are my winter uniform, worn over a turtleneck with jeans. They're also wonderful when Michigan summer evenings turn cool on Lake Huron!One thing that would make these even better would be to make the zippers two-way zippers. This would eliminate the lower edge bunching up when the wearer sits down with the jacket zipped. February 12, 2011
Runs Large The clementis blue color is nice and is close to being periwinkle.The sizing of the jacket runs quite large. I ordered the medium but the sleeves were too long and the width of the jacket was too wide. Unfortunately it has to be returned because overall it is too big. May 22, 2013
Worth the money! I was skeptical of buying a Columbia jacket. The price tag to me seemed a little too much. However, if you compare this jacket to the the North Face, the price seems quite reasonable. With price comes quality, and that is one will get with this jacket. This jacket is very comfortable and reminds me of my fleece blanket that I sleep with. Honestly, I do not see why any one would want to spend an extra $50 bucks for the same quality from North Face. A must for winter! And one more thing, I am a tall young lady (5'11) and very skinny. Finding jackets that are well fitting can be quite difficult. However, upon purchasing this jacket I found no issues with size! May 21, 2013
Not as shown I love Columbia fleece so when I needed a black jacket to wear for a new job I knew right where to go! For this position I cannot wear a jacket with any kind of logo that stands out so I was happy to see the Benton Springs full zip fleece in black had the logo in black stitching...however when it arrived although it fit great, I was so upset to see that the logo was in WHITE stitching...Grrrrrr. Why do you show a picture with the black stitching and then ship one with white? Not at all what I was expecting or wanted. May 7, 2013
Jacket runs small I would expect a Large to fit more like a 10-12 women's size and it fit more like an 8-10 size. I would have liked to have had the option to do an exchange but none was offered on the return form. Quality product if you can get the correct size. April 28, 2013
Looks Great on a Woman's Figure The cut on this fleece is outstanding on a woman's body! I am usually a size 4 in tops and I got the medium, and it fits perfecly, if a tiny bit snug. Definitely order a size up if you are unsure, and especially if you want the fleece to be loose enough for sweathers/other jackets underneath. April 26, 2013
Review Very nice product, as all from Columbia April 15, 2013
Great jacket This jacket is great for those cool Spring days. Keeps you warm and dry. Material doesn't pill and doesn't stretch out. I'm very pleased with this purchase. April 13, 2013
Changed since last fleece purchase My last Columbia fleece finally had the zipper break after six years of repeated washing and wearing, so I came here shopping for a new one. I bought the same size as my old fleece, but the new one fits much bigger than the old one. I feel like I'm swimming in it. The wrists are also looser, which means if I have it on while my hands are in water, the ends of the sleeves get wet because they won't stay up. The color is also not how it appeared on the website. Mirage looks like a light gray with a tinge of blue on the website. In real life it is sky blue...definitely not a color I would have picked for myself. But it is warm and comfortable, which is the main point of a fleece jacket after all. April 8, 2013
Great jacket with even better fleece material now I have 15 Columbia jackets in all different colors that I've purchased over the years, with most of them being the Benton Springs full zip or the Benton Springs hoodie jackets. This latest version of the full zip jacket is even better than my old ones because they softened the fleece material so that it pills less and is warm and cozy to the touch. I wish all my old jackets were this soft! I'm 5'4", 115 lbs, and have a 34C bust and the extra small fits perfectly. They also nipped in the waist oh so slightly for a more feminine look and it's quite flattering. All around, a great jacket! April 4, 2013
Very cozy jacket I liked the color very much. Also the fleece feels very nice. The collar is nice, generous and cozy as well. Great all around fleece jacket at a good price. April 3, 2013
Lightweight, yet warm and comfortable. I love this lightweight jacket that I can easily pack in my suitcase for travel without having the heaviness of a ski jacket, but still have the warmth that I can wear in the mountains hiking. I love it's soft fleece fabric and how comfortable it feels on that I can layer under a heavier jacket or over a sweater as well. I bought it in a larger size so I could layer it if I want to. It has elastic pull-string on the bottom to make it fit a little tighter. I was so pleased that it arrived so quickly and the service was excellent. Thank you. April 2, 2013
She loved it! I bought this Benton spring zip up for my wife and she loves it! It fits her great and so far has proven to be a great jacket. March 27, 2013
blue iris fleece I ordered blue iris & loved the color. It's more of a light purple (lilac) color than it appears. Overall, it fit perfectly (I'm 5'4'' about 130lbs) and I am considering buying more colors ...very affordable compared to the Northface fleeces. March 26, 2013
Sizing change A couple of years ago I ordered this exact same fleece in XL. So, I ordered two more in XL again. This time the fit was too big. I double checked my current fleece that fits the way I want it to, and it IS XL. I have ordered the large size, but the most disappointing part is that I had to pay the shipping for the return of the first order that did not fit. I find that highly annoying, especially since I was judging the sizing based on what I had purchased in the past. March 23, 2013
Nice, soft, comfortable fleece This is proving to be a great addition to my wardrobe. It's very comfortable to lounge around the house in and makes a great layer when going outside on a chilly day. I ordered it in black, which is really sort of a gray-black-- not a true, deep black. I usually wear a small to medium in jackets and even the small on me is a bit big, but it doesn't look bad. In fact, it's nice that it's a little long because I can bend over without worrying about showing any back. Overall a good-quality and useful garment. March 23, 2013
Product satisfied I gave this as a gift to my granddaughter who wears it daily. She loves it. Washes beautifully. Fits well. March 23, 2013
Great jacket! Just as promised! Just what we wanted! March 22, 2013
Best Buy Of The Year! Excellent quality! I ordered my fleece in black, True color, and true size, all around it fits to my need and is very flexible. Its warm and works well in wet and dry weather, Doesn't get hot, keeps you comfortable at all times. March 20, 2013
Love it. I have a Columbia 3 in 1 jacket that I purchased last year and it has the inner fleece that I would wear separately but did not really like because the bottom of the jacket did not have the bungee cord option. I purchased the Columbia Benton Springs because it does have the bungee cord option. It is wonderful. If it was not for the harshly cold winter we are having here in MN I would be wearing it every day. Also my other Columbia is a medium so I decided to choose the medium in Benton Springs also and it fits great.I am only giving a 4 star because I ordered the black color and it is more of a charcoal gray. Not a problem entirely but not exactly what I was expecting. March 20, 2013
Benton Springs Love the jacket, seen in a store checked it out on line and it was excately the same and the color I wanted and friendly service and less price. I will soon be ordering more different colors March 18, 2013
Benton Springs Fleece Love Columbia jackets they are absolutely the best! March 18, 2013
Not navy! Advertised as navy blue however it is actually a medium blue color. Very disappointing since I needed navy blue! March 17, 2013
Sleeves way too long. I ordered the jacket expecting it to be identical to a Columbia jacket in a different color that I wear all the time. The sleeves on the new jacket were way too long. March 11, 2013
Gift for me This would have been my second fleece. The fit was ok, just felt like I can use a little more room. Returned this one but was able to find the same color (in store) in a men's XL and the fit was perfect! March 11, 2013
Excellent Love these, wish they had more colors in my size. Very warm for a person who is always cold. I wear one practically every day. March 11, 2013
My Girl likes it My girlfriend has been bugging me to borrow my fleece jacket. Even seeing her bring other brands to keep her warm. She always asked for my Columbia Fleece Jacket. So I decided to buy her own Navy Blue , medium jacket. On her birthday on a cold Wednesday morning in Miami . She puts it on and already fell in love with it. She will always have it on when it's cold. And thinks of me. But it fits her well and keeps her happy. This was a birthday gift she enjoys. Recommend all the guys to look into this too. March 8, 2013
This product is not the same quality as my last order. There is such a difference in the fabric from my last order.Disappointing! March 8, 2013
benton springs full zip fleece jacket I love my new jacket but I need one just like it size L in intense violet and it's not available so this is very disappointing March 8, 2013
Perfect Jacket This jacket is perfect for everything. You can wear it for business or just for casual events. I am quite "busty" so I ordered a Large... it's a little snug but most things are in that area for me. Quality of the jacket is wonderful and it is much cheaper than the North Face similar item. March 7, 2013
Columbia - the gem of all fleeces! ,Love this style jacket. Have 2 others. Did notice that the navy has a slimmer fit through the midriff than my brown and fuschia ones. Still fits though just not as roomy. Always get compliments when I wear the fuschia one. Color matters - adds spice while one keeps warm! I definitely recommend your product especially as my daughter lives in Oregon :-) March 3, 2013
Great Price, Great Fleece This fleece is fantastic! It feels so soft and extremely comfortable. It didn't run small and I actually got my true size--medium. The price is good for such a lovable jacket! March 2, 2013
Avoid this kind of fleece I was about to return the jacket but had to donate it to a local charity as I had lost the return slip. I can not wear any fleece except Polortec. And then every one starts changing the style. Sorry it just DID NOT work for me. March 2, 2013
Favorites I like this Jacket because is comfortable not only to wear but to keep handy to use at any time is needed February 28, 2013
Best Fleece For the Price I had lost my last fleece jacket and needed something new and fast. This jacket does the job perfectly. It is much warmer than it looks and fits great. Plus it's a fair price! February 27, 2013
Love it I've worn this jacket since the day it came in. Guess that shows how awesome this product is. It makes the walks across campus much better. I love the pockets, too. February 27, 2013
Disappointed I usually don't leave bad reviews. Bought for a mini vacation to the mountains & was very disappointed. The material is not soft or comfortable, felt like I was in a wool sweater. The size runs a little small & the fit is very awkward. I could find a nicer off-brand jacket at a local department store for half the already discounted price of this jacket. February 27, 2013
Benton Springs jacket I had purchased a jacket and hoodie last year and wore them constantly. I wanted to get more in different colors. Now I have a few more. With spring coming, I'll be spending alot of time outdoors and these are great for that. Love them. February 23, 2013
This product is really warm Bought for my 13 year old niece for Christmas and she loves it. The only thing I was disappointed in was the color. I was looking for a true purple and the intense violet looks more of a pinkish to me. But she still loves it. February 22, 2013
Nice Fleece I'm 5'5, 118 and a small is a bit too big, even with another hoodie under it. I ordered the jacket in Columbia Navy and it is way lighter than depicted, but other than that the fleece is extremely comfortable and pretty. February 19, 2013
Tonya I now own six of these jackets and I love them. I have purchased them for my son and nieces they love them as well the colors are great. Great poduct Columbia..Thanks February 18, 2013
Happy I Am Very Happy with my Purchase, So Happy, I have gotten several Different colors February 17, 2013
Just Perfect! I purchased this jacket to wear on my five mile walks that take me through various terrain. I wanted something light on my body that would keep me warm through the transition months. This jacket is perfect for that as well as those times when you are running quick errands and don't want the weight of a bulky coat. Love the color (velvet morning) and highly recommend!I purchased the large after reading the reviews that it runs a bit small. I would normally purchase a medium and my decision to go up a size was the correct one. February 15, 2013
Just What I Wanted This jacket replaces a black fleece jacket I left on a plane about a year ago and I am very happy with it. It fits well, is warm and cozy. This color, black, goes with everything too. February 14, 2013
Warranty Satisfaction My daughter just loves her Columbia Fleece jacket and wears it practically every day! Two of the zipper pulls broke on her original jacket but she loved it so much she kept wearing it. After a friend informed me of Columbia's warranty policy, I sent the item back and received a brand new fleece jacket! I truly appreciated their support and think their warranty program is top notch! February 13, 2013
Great jacket I bought this fleece after much research, and when I found a great price for it. The fit is great--I'm 5'4" and 120 pounds with about 36" bust--and a small fit me well enough I could wear a sweater under it without problem, with plenty of room for my arms. It's a tad thicker than some of my other (cheaper) fleeces, which is fine since I'm always cold. I had a tough time deciding on the color, since there were so many to choose from, but the intense violet was a great color, not quite as vivid in person as it appears on the screen, but a very pretty color. It's warm and has zipped pockets. Haven't washed it yet but it seems sturdy enough. February 13, 2013
Most ooutstanding jacket I have ever purchased This jacket fits perfectly. It is so soft and comfortable. There are so many great colors to buy. They wash beautifully and do not change in size. You will never have to iron it. Also, I buy them for my friends for a special occasion as a birthday gift. Presently, I own five. February 12, 2013
Not What I Expected I love Columbia Jackets they are all I wear but this last one that I bought was meant to be Intense Violet and when I got it looked more or a pink color. February 11, 2013
Good for the price Fleece was lightweight and comfy, which was great. Fit was a little small but thankfully I was still able to zip it at my hips! Sleeve length was fine for me though the sleeves were too loose compared to the body of the jacket; while the body was slim cut (great!), the sleeves were puffy (not so great). Pity about that as I end up looking a little disproportionate... Will be using the fleece in colder weather soon but in a cold hall, it kept me warm. February 11, 2013
Love this jacket! Perfect for everday wear when you want to be warm but dont want a big bulky coat! Be sure if you purchase to choose your size carefully. It is made in a modern fitted style so may seem to run small. I love it!! February 8, 2013
