Customer Reviews Columbia Benton Springs™ Full Zip

Dependable, classic, simple, cozy -- the one I grab again and again.

I love these Benton Springs fleece jackets. They are lightweight but warm when needed. Zip up pockets keep your belongings safe when you are shopping or out for a walk. I have several colors.

I have 8 of these Columbia full zip jackets in various colors. My husband has 4. My mistake, but I ordered an extra large instead of a large. It's a bit too big, but I didn't send it back. I loved the bright yellow color so I counted on it shrinking a little. We have had trouble with these jackets when my husband stood too close to a fire and stray sparks burned holes in his jacket. I still love the colors and warmth of these jackets. Many people have complimented me when I wear them.

Beautiful jacket. It really isn't yellow. It's more of the orange tones. I love it. Never met a Columbia jacket I didn't love!

I have been wearing the Benton Springs full zip style for at least 20 years. Love the style, fit, colors, weight and warmth. No matter what the season I always keep one in the car especially in the summer when heading to the freezing movie theaters or supermarkets. They are extremely well made with zippers and launder extremely well - no pilling or color fading.

The jacket fit as expected and the price is good. I loved how it feels when you have it on.

Warm, runs small. I'm 5'2 bought it medium size but if you use multiple layers I recommend to buy it large

I took a chance on Sunset Peach even with it looking kind of school-bus-yellowish in the photo. In reality it has more orange to it than what is shown online. I would still consider it a Bright & bold peach color. Slightly different than what is shown on the model, but sometimes you have to go off of what they call it (Peach). Peaches are quite orange inside! It can be hard to photograph bright tones accurately, but as a graphic designer myself it should be easy for them to tweak the image to better match the real fabric. Monitor settings and blue-light-settings on phones can also change your perception. That is one downside of ordering from Columbia online is sometimes I've noticed the color differs in person when I receive it. I appreciate the review photos so I'll post my own photo here too. It was a bit bold/bright for my skin tone but would look great on a brunette. As for the jacket review, I have owned about 4 Benton springs jackets through the years. Eventually with lots of wear they start to to pill and look worn out so I usually pick out a new one every year or two. I like that I know what to expect and I always know what size to get that will fit. I am about 110 lbs and 5'7" and I order size small. I also love that there are SO many colors to choose from every year, and not just dark colors like gray or black or navy. I do feel you are mostly paying for the brand name sewn onto the jacket because I am *shocked* at how much full price is. I would never pay full price for this item because I don't feel like it's worth it, at all. It is a basic unlined polyester fleece jacket., but the quality & fit is consistent. They add extra things like drawstring hem and elastic cuffs. The zipper pockets are a big plus, and they color-match the zippers to the fabric which is nicer than cheaper jackets. This is a somewhat heavier fleece than other styles that are listed as 'microfleece', which is thinner and more lightweight.

Love the jacket however the actual color is different than what is shown

Nice bright jacket, not my normal color hue but exciting nonetheless.

It was nice, my mom liked it and said it was soft, she wears it for the gym to go shopping and around the house

It's really good and fit perfectly. I ordered it for her birthday and she decided to buy more!!

I ordered a small, fits well. Zippered pockets, ordered the peach color. It's bright, I like it. Soft and cozy. Not too heavy ,not too light. Stand up collar. Comfortable

Good quality and the color is nice spring color! The sale price was nice!

Super duper comfy but runs a little bit small. I wouldnt recommend a whole size up, but know it may run slightly small in the chest

This jacket is a perfect fit for me, plus warm and has the high neck that keeps the cold out. Highly recommend

Beautiful color and very comfortable Would purchase again

Love the fleece jackets good for all kinds of weather

I generally wear a size Large in most brands but chose to size up to an XL. This gives me an excellent and comfortable fit. I didn't realize how "Tennessee Orange" the sunset peach color is in person though. It's fine for me but just want to forewarn others. Quality material and soft.

Soft and comfortable and lots of pocket space which is necessary for me

This Women's Benton Springs Fleece Jacket is beautiful. The material is excellent. This jacket has great fit (Size S) and washes extremely well. The peach color is vibrant and outstanding. This jacket is perfect for California Spring weather. Columbia has fast shipping services. Unfortunately, the sleeves were made a little too long.

I really like this fleece jacket and the color is a plus!

I love these jackets they are great for light weather

Very comfortable and looks professional enough to wear to the office

Good for a nice spring/fall day I am using it for my wedding in the spring
