Just Perfect!
This jacket is a life saver!! I am a teacher and I go from indoors to outdoors often. This jacket protects me outside, and inside the jacket is functional for working with children. I keep a light layer on underneath and I am comfortable all day!! Just perfect!!

Love the color selections
I love this jacket....got the 1x to be roomy to wear with layers. Love that the sleeves are adjustable with velcro and that the bottom can be cinched in. This is absolutely perfect for those slightly rainy days and is so lightweight that it might even roll up and fit in your purse.

Wouldn’t recommend
Bought this due to the extremely cheap price. Wore it a couple times in rain and to protect from wind. Even in dry weather, it was so unbreathable that my down coat underneath was soaking wet when I took it off after a couple hours. Returned it after that.

Great jacket!
I needed a waterproof jacket with a hood and this one is perfect. Great fit! I bought it online thought it said “mesh” lining. I could be wrong. Anyway, there is no mesh lining. My only complaint is it doesn’t breathe and can get a little hot. Otherwise, I love it!!

Great purchase
This was an awesome purchase and the plus is it was on sale. I love this jacket. It is simply a rain jacket. Not lined, just a hooded jacket to keep you dry on a rainy day.

Good Value Rain Jacket
I bought this to throw on between trips to my car on rainy days. For that purpose, it is a good rain jacket. I don’t think I would wear this for longer than a few minutes in the rain, or in heavy rain or cold as the material is quite thin and would likely not be comfortable if it got very wet. I think for the price, the quality is good for what I described. If you want something warmer or that will hold up for longer or in heavier rain, you’ll have to spend a little more. It suits the purpose that I bought it for. I recommend to size up as it runs a tad small.

I bought a 3xl. Lets just say if I new it was made in vietnam I most likely wouldn't have purchased it. Tight in the arms and zipper wouldn't touch.

Great Jacket
I ordered and XL and am 5'3" 170 lbs and it fits fine. There is plenty of room for sweatshirt or sweater underneath. I am hoping it keeps me dry. It looks like it will. I love that it is so compact and plan on using it for travel abroad as it doesn't rain much in southern california. I am pleased with construction and it looks like it will hold up well. I also enjoyed the variety of colors to choose from.

Nice rain jacket
My new jacket arrived just in time for a rare Tucson storm. It’s very light weight and waterproof per the attached tag. It fits well through the shoulders but I wish it were cut fuller. I wore a T-shirt under it and I wouldn’t have room for much more. Otherwise I would have given it five stars. I bought the XL. I wear a size 12/14.

Great Multi-Purpose Jacket
Runs true to size. Light-weight but packs a functionality punch! Great as light rain/mist gear. Light weight enough for hikes and great at providing light weight sun protection. The hood ticks nicely into the collar and is t bulky when it’s tucked away. Crisp material but not in a stiff way.

Lived in this coat in Alaska
I bought this coat so that I could stay dry during my recent trip to Alaska. I bought a size up so that I could wear it over my heavier jacket. It worked well and I could fold it up and store in my backup when I did not need it. It is very lightweight and durable.

Nice, but runs small
Very nice lightweight jacket, but It runs small. I bought this in my usual size - M and it is cut very narrow. Perfect for Summer, but I wouldn't be able to wear a sweater underneath and feel comfortable. Will exchange for a larger size.

Love this jacket!
I got the Dark Seas color and it’s gorgeous! I’m 5’5 150 pounds and the medium fits perfect. Took this jacket with me on a backpacking trip it kept me warm and protected from the rain but lightweight so not to add extra weight on my trip. Super cute and functional couldn’t ask for a better lightweight rain coat.

I love the length! - I am 5'8" and it covers my derriere
I purchased this jacket about 6 months ago and originally thought I would wear it for those cooler spring days and cool summer nights. I now realize that this jacket will be my "go to" for fall and winter months. All I will need is a long sleeve lightweight top underneath my jacket, and I will be good to go for winter. This jacket holds in all the heat you will need, if you are warm blooded like me. Also I love the collar - I like turtlenecks to keep me warm however, I don't need one now the way this one sits so high. I purchased the coral red color and am now looking for a black one. I am 175# - 5'8" and bought a size 2X.

We are cruise people that would like to used as rain jacket at tropical area or wind broker in Alaska or northern Europe...
Cone is cut too big I'm 5'3 115lb ordered small size but still too much room, also should comes with pouch to hold the jacket to trips. I have other blend jacket that comes with pouch and it was very handy. quality of fabric wasn't great too. I returned.

Love it
I fell in love with the soft violet color at a local store, but their xl was tight. So I ordered the 2x here, and I’m glad I did. I have a 40d bust, so finding rain jackets without a stretch to them is always a challenge. I love Columbia, and love the color. It’s perfect in the humid Florida weather, and it’s super light weight without sweating profusely. I like the 2 inside mesh pockets. I’d of given it a 5 star, but Columbia made this cut on the slimmer side. So I went 2 sizes up, but I’d prefer it a little baggy than tight. Is it waterproof? Not really, but definitely water resistant. I’d consider buying another.

Great Features.
I recently purchased this jacket, it fits nicely. I am 5'3'' and 125 pounds, bought a small. The extra features are what sold me. The zippered pockets, velcro wrist closure on the sleeves and the hidden hood make this jacket a winner.

Nice Jacket!
I just got this recently, so I would have something to wear if I'm running and it's a bit rainy. I haven't used it for that yet, but I really love the color and the fit. It's not too hot, and I can easily add a sweatshirt underneath if I need one.
