Your gear reviews are always interesting because they are a good guide to you deciding whether a piece of kit is good for you. I have never been into Columbia and don't want to run the risk of buying an expensive jacket which is a bit of a pose for going to the pub but no good for the hill. This jacket does seem to fit you well although being a men's jacket I would have expected the arms to be a bit too long and maybe the shoulders too big. Don't Columbia do a women's version of the same jacket? Thank you for posting because you have helped me decide that this jacket is a no for me, although I do need a winter jacket which is actually warm in typical West Country winter weather - 5-9 deg which is not especially cold but it is often wet and windy.
I loved the confidence in your review!
Thanks for the review, I just picked this jacket up for $85 on sale here in Seattle. I’m from England but have not visited since 2010.
I love the simple cuffs. Looks great on you.
The jacket is also packable into the hand pocket.
Pretty jacket. I was looking at one on their site last night. Thanks for posting:)
Those loops on sleeves and under a hood are for tying a compatible shell jacket ;)

Кто знает почему на правом кармане внутри простой материал?
Cheers Abbs. Does the jacket get a bit stickey inside when you get warm? Not impressed with hood. I would buy it just for the disco side ya!
Wats the temperature time u r wearing does it keeps warm at -5 c
I'd add extra layers underneath for sure at -5 but depends if I'm stationary or moving:)
