Ripped Within 2-months
Bought this coat for my daughter and after just a few weeks of wearing it we noticed the seam under the arm pit had ripped out and the hang loop on the inside ripped off.
Very frustrated. Expected way better quality from Columbia!

Great coat!
I bought this because I wanted a longer, warmer, water resistent winter coat and that's exactly what I got! The size I had to order is a little too big for me but my size wasn't available for purchase. It keeps me warm during the subzero temperatures, the hood and jacket are great for blocking cold winds, and it's lightweight so I don't feel weighed down. Overall a great purchase and I would definitely recommend!

Not what I expected
This was the first Columbia jacket I'd ever purchased. Out of the package I thought it was small and kinda on the flimsy side and worried it wouldn't stand up to the elements. But boy did it pack some heat!!!!! It withstood temperatures of -34 in a blizzard. I am most satisfied with my purchase and Columbia has earned a loyal customer.

lightweight & Warrrm
I was tired of super puffy coats that still left me cold. This is perfect. My only warning is...it gets hot. So I would wear it and the run around the house looking for your keys. Put it on last!
I got the 1x (I am 5'9 about 240)

Love this jacket!
Wasn't sure what to expect, was looking for a cute and warm but not too bulky winter jacket. This jacket is exactly what I was looking for, and then some! I was pleasantly surprised with all the features on this coat- there are many pockets, several inside the jacket, most have zippers or snaps to secure your items safely inside. This was so useful to me because my phone would fall out of my pocket in my previous coat when I would get into my vehicle. This jacket also has upper pockets perfect fit for phones or wallet. The other thing I LOVE about this jacket is that it seems to be able to keep you the perfect temperature! No clue how this works, but I was able to shop in doors for several hours without over heating yesterday, and I headed outside and stayed just as warm in below zero temps. I have always overheated indoors with other jackets. More great features of this jacket include the adjustable hood, detachable "fur", and double zipper. The jacket seems to run a little large - not too bad- I thought at first that because it was a thinner jacket and not bulky, I might need a sweater under it to stay warm, but that is not the case- no sweater needed! I am extremely happy with my purchase and would highly recommend :)

Very well made, lots of pockets
Very well made with lots of features. Love that the fur around the hood and the belt are removable. The coat is warm but not bulky thanks to the omnitech lining. Runs a little small, had to order a size larger than normal.

The unicorn of winter coats; warm but not too warm, waterproof, and has an adjustable hood!
I found this coat in my local store and instantly knew it was the one for me. I previously tried the Women's Mighty Lite™ Hooded Jacket and the Women’s Boundary Bay™ Jacket, but neither were just right.
I recently lost weight and based on the size charts, I'm just on this side of the 2XL. I love the fit of this coat when I'm standing. It's a little snug on the hips when seated, I'm 5'4" and the coat hits a little below my bum. The double zipper is great for giving me that little extra room if I need it. The hood is adjustable, and the fur part detaches if that isn't your thing. The coat is nice and warm, without being too puffy. The belt adds some definition, which I find flattering in plus size coats.
The only negative I have for this coat is that the black color is more like a deep charcoal/graphite gray instead of a true black. This is great for me since I prefer gray over black.

I bought this for my daughter for Christmas and she just loves it. It fits her perfectly and with the cold winters here in Wisconsin she is all set. It is very warm and yet light weight so it is not bulky. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Good quality
This sizing of this can be tricky. For example, I am normally a 1x but I found this 1x to be slightly small and not a ton of room for a thick sweater for a midwest winter.
I sized up and feel it's slightly big bit comfy.

Phenomenal Jacket!
This is the best jacket I have ever owned. It's warm and water resistant while still being stylish. It has everything I need and more. Lots of pockets and deep ones at that! Everything is lined and warm, even the hood and pockets! I'm never too warm to the point I sweat, but I'm also not cold as no wind seems to cut through! The belt around the waist adds some femininity but can be removed if not wanted. One of the things about this jacket that I love the most is the size of the hood. It is large enough to accommodate a warm hat but does not cover your eyes or face without one. 15/10 would and will purchase again. I will recommend this jacket to anyone in need of a warm, practical, and cute jacket.

Looking for Winter Warmth?
This is a cute jacket that would work for moderately cold days here, but would not be warm enough for me on the really windy frigid days.
Probably would have kept for the more mild days, but ran smaller than my current Columbia jackets of the same size.

Too big
I usually wear an extra large but I ordered the XxL thinking that I can layer up. Unfortunately if fit too big. I also didn't like the overall look of it. I really dislike the belt. I liked that you were able to take out the inner lining & I liked that it has a lot of pockets. I just didn't like the overall look. I will be returning it and will buy a different style without the belt.

Surprisingly Warm!
I really like this coat! I am born and raised in NYC and was looking for something to get me through the cold and snow. I tend to think feathers=warmth but this coat doesn’t need the feathers some how and I am still very warm. Since there are no feathers, it’s very lightweight while still being nice and toasty!
I did have to return for next size up (I ordered a 1X originally and exchanged for 2X) the first coat fit me but the bust area was tight. I do think the pockets could be a bit deeper but I do like that there are plenty of pockets. The zipper pockets are perfect for commuters life to put your metrocard and what not. The fleece in the pockets is nice though. The belt quality could be a little nicer. I think the buckle looks and feels a little cheap. Warmth wise it serves its purpose. I ordered the color “Major” it’s nice to not have a black winter coat for once.

Very Pleased
I ordered this coat on sale. I liked the style. The reason I’m writing this review is that I am 5’6” and weigh 180 lbs. I don’t usually advertise this information, but thought it may be helpful for someone else. I am pear shaped and if something fits on top, it’s too tight at the bottom. I was not sure if I should order a 2X or 3X for this reason. I took a leap of faith and ordered the 2X and it fits perfectly! I’m so happy! I like the belt, it gives some style, rather than a boxy look.

I really love this coat keeps you nice and warm I live in Chicago always cold and heavy winds that can blow you away with this coat is fantastic fashionable and it's great I love all the pockets the darker than the picture I bought a 2X that's my size but I'm also pregnant so I probably should have bought 3 x if you're looking for extra room buy a size up if you like to wear extra sweaters or scarves with things like that but honestly with this coat you really don't need overall it's a great coat .

Love this jacket
The jacket fits very well , I like the color and it’s stylish, although I don’t really like the belt. Not to say it doesn’t look nice, it does and I think it adds a little more to the overall style, but for me, belts in general are ...... eh. My first use of this jacket was walking around downtown St. Paul, MN. The temp was in single digits and windy, but this jacket kept me so warm! The sleeves are a good length and even though I have long arms, the sleeves covered my wrists adequately. I like that there’s a lot of pockets both inside and out; some are zipped, some have a snap and others don’t have any type of closure, but all are functional. I put my wallet and phone in the zippered pockets, not having to worry about them falling out. This jacket is amazing and I highly recommend it!

Deceptively awesome!
I purchased this coat online after purchasing a different style Columbia coat from different website. I thought the other coat I got would be the optimal length and warmth and this would be a nice in-between. I was so wrong! This coat has so many hidden treasures--pockets everywhere; it is warmer and more functional than any coat I've ever had. The look is stylish especially with the belt and scalloped hem. Though not as long as I may have wanted, it is exactly what I needed.

Great plus size coat
This is a sensible and fashionable coat. It offers a more mature and feminine design than the traditional Columbia 3-1 coat without sacrificing warmth. I love the fact that it has a tailored cut around the hips and is longer in the back. I am a true plus size woman and this coat fits comfortably! The faux fur hood can be removed.
There are a few features that could be improved.
The front pockets do not seem like they will hold much. If you are plus size and have long arms the sleeves may be short on you. I also wish the sleeves had thumb holes.

This jacket is great for walking across campus. It wasn't as warm as I had hoped, but still got the job done. Great jacket overall, I had to order a size up because the arm hole were a little snug and Therefore the middle section is slightly big but the belt helps to cinch it.

I absolutely love this jacket! I first saw it at the local outlets near me, unfortunately they didn't have my size. I ordered the correct size and couldn't wait for it to come in. Even on the coldest days, I am kept warm while wearing this jacket. The hood fits perfectly and helps keep the wind off your head as well. All around amazing jacket. Well worth the money.

Looks like a nice coat, which is why the three stars. Light and warm. However, I ordered a larger size so I would have extra room and it still fit tight in the arms. Everywhere else was fine. Disappointing.

3X Fits a 3X
Amaze jacket!
It truly fit a 3X (26/28 pant)
Roomy zip which can also be pulled up from bottom if you needed extra room or you can just snap it shut and it still looks nice. (The arms also fit easily.)
I've never been able to have a winter jacket from a outdoor company-never found a fit for me. This was like when I first got an i phone-totally intuitive. Wish the hood didn't come down so far-what? there's a snap on the back for that! Wish I could sinch the hood closer around my face for frigid MN-it's got a cord for that! Pockets to warm your hands and ones for stuff? You read the features, they're real.
It was an investment from plus size store winter jackets, but definitely well worth it for the warmth factor.
I love my jacket.

Only thing I wish it would be longer !

Best Warm Waterproof Jacket Ever!
I have been so happy with this jacket and how it is both warm and waterproof; perfect for the Pacific Northwest winters. The first big test for this jacket was when I wore it to an outdoor event in January in Portland where it rained hard on us for 90 minutes. I wore this jacket, rain pants, and waterproof boots and did not get wet or cold. Since then, we have had numerous cold, wet days and the jacket has been great. It looks dressier than typical winter jackets, so I can wear it to work and to events after work. I ordered a size larger than normal after reading reviews that said it would be good to do so, but I ended up returning that size and getting my normal size. I like how it's warm without a heavy feel to it. Keep up the good work, Columbia Sportswear!

The coat runs a little small, however it's very warm. The faux fur unsnaps whenever I drape my purse across my shoulder.
I was looking for a less bulkier coat because my job has me behind the wheel of my car every day. Otherwise a good buy.

Not very warm
I had high hopes for this coat. It fits well and seems to be well-made. With the belt, it looks attractive. However, I find the belt more of a nuisance than anything else and usually don't wear it. There is some nice soft, warm fleecy material around the collar which feels good and warm around your neck when you zip it all the way up. I like the hood. It's not as heavy as most winter coats, so I don't feel weighed down when wearing it. I was concerned about the zipper because I often have trouble with them and I had read some other reviewers that the zipper was a problem, but it seems to be a good quality metal zipper and works. The only trouble I have with it is at the bottom when I unzip, it doesn't quite want to separate so that the coat opens. I have to jiggle it a bit. I've had the coat about a month now, and we've had some cold days here in Minnesota. This coat really hasn't been that warm. The reflective lining technology is supposed to use your body heat to keep you warm, but it really doesn't do much. My old Land's End Squall Parka is warmer than this coat. I was truly hoping for it to be warmer. It's adequate, but on cold days I am not completely warm and toasty in this coat.

Too Cold! Too big! Poor Functionality
When this arrived I was stoked, I desperately needed a new coat after ten years of service from my old Columbia jacket. If I hadn't had any other option than this jacket after needing it during a freak foot of snow I would have returned it. After a thorough stress test I can attest to the following;
Runs very large, I felt like I was wearing a belted dress that was still too loose than a jacket.
I hate the rib knit cuffs, in a good soaking they get drenched and water just creeps up your wrists and it's the worst. It also results in itchy wrists when wet.
This jacket is not warm, for all the hoopla. I find myself having to wear multiple sweaters with this jacket just to stay warm, which what is the point of the bulk?
Pocket technology is also a dud here--they are kangaroo style pockets so if you want to keep your hands in your pockets, well again for a waterrproof jacket this is a Miss because , your hands just get soaked. All jackets should have pockets on the sides. It's 2016, we should have figured this out by now. Had I realized this jacket did not have side pockets I never would have purchased it.
credit where it's due, a lovely color but in retrospect I wish I would have gotten it in white, wearing dark colors after dark isn't safe. This last gripe though is on me.
Trying again for a positive--excluding the cut, size, lining material, pockets, ribbed cuff issue, this jacket is very well made.

Great Coat!!
I bought this coat as a Christmas gift for my mother on Black Friday. I was very happy for the cost savings but was anxious buying online for obvious reasons (fit and appearance). She had complained that she couldn't find a decent looking coat for a larger, older woman. So, I ordered online and held my breath...she is very hard to please and had tried on some Columbia coats at an outlet (at my request to gauge the sizing):). She was not pleased when trying on coats in the store; the arms were too tight, didn't fit right, etc. but the online reviews led me to believe that this one just might be right for her. Her coat arrived and I held my breath in anticipation she would like it and she DID!! A BIG win for me to buy for my picky mother!! The arms were great (she has very large arms) and the fit was just right!! She loved it and I am a hero in her eyes!! She adores it and stays toasty outdoors. Very pleased with this coat for warmth, looks, and fit!!

Warm yet not bulky
I previously bought an Omni-heat lightweight jacket and was very impressed, so wanted to find a winter jacket with that product. I tried on many but most where very bulky. This coat is not, yet it is warm and has been "tested" in the sub zero cold and wind MN is currently experiencing. It is stylish, longer length so keeps me warmer, and I've received many compliments on it. The weight is comfortable and I can walk around a Mall with it unzipped and not roast to death. It does run small so I would suggest ordering the next size up. I highly recommend this coat!

Great jacket!!
I needed something warm other than a puffer jacket and so far the Omni heat & fleece hood are awesome. The fit is great in the arms, I find some to be to short, but the sleeves actually come right to the bottom of my wrist! Fit everywhere else is great. Belt is in perfect spot. Only problem is the faux fur trim. It looked Nothing short of a dead squirrel. It was Matted and flat out of the bag & even worse after a wash! Not close to the full fluffy picture. Pretty annoying for the price but was lucky I had another trim I could switch it with, I'd be embarrassed to wear with original trim. Other than that I Love it!

Toasty, warm & hard wearing
I bought this coat for my daughter who is up very early to feed the horses in West Virginia and let me tell you it can easily be 5 to 10 below. She needed something that would keep the wind, rain and cold out! But something that would allow her to move freely. This coat is all that an more. The Omni-Heat™ thermal reflective lining is amazing and she doesn't need to wear lots and lots of layers to keep warm. The design gives her the freedom of movement that she needs to look after the horses in the cold and wet! The coat is also breathable and so she doesn't get over heated! She loves it! Thank you for this quality product!

based on reviews, I sized up to a 3X and it's way too big. I am an 18-20 with big arms, but the 3X is just too enormous even with a big sweater underneath. So this is going back and I'm ordering the 2X.

Shoulders are shaped too round and runs large
I received this coat and was disappointed in the size and shape, although I believe the quality to be excellent. I wear a size 2x-3x so I ordered the 3x, but it is too large for me. The bluebell color and the overall weight and quality of the jacket is impressive, but the shoulders are shaped a bit like Stretch Armstrong's, being that they are very rounded and the excess material there doesn't seem to be completely necessary. The jacket fits me well in the waist area, but the shoulders are way too roomy. I don't like the belt and think it would be too stiff for daily wear. On the other hand, the fake fur and the sherpa in the hood are very soft and comfy. I will be sad to send this one back due to the overall quality, but the shape isn't for me.
