Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia™ II Jacket

Nice coat. I have had one of these for over 7 years and wanted to replace it. I was pleased to see the design, material, and functionality was the same. It's worth the money.

I ordered the medium. I am a size 8 and it was perfect. Very lightweight yet warm. Taking it hiking with me in Europe in just a few weeks. I love that is packable but a nice layer. If it gets chilly.

Keeps you dry and blocks the wind. Its a bit insulated so it will keep you warm as well.

Haven't worn it in the rain yet but fits well and LOVE the color!!

Just what I needed

This is my third purchase of this jacket. I've had a white one since 2017 and it is my go to jacket. It's lightweight but really keeps you dry and cuts the wind. They always stay looking brand new. I got a light blue and a light green, too. I hope to have one of every color. I always get compliments when I wear them.

This is a solid rain jacket! Light weight but definitely durable. It is a good purchase. I love the color choice. Only thing I really would prefer is to loose the velcro tabs. They are annoying to ME

Quality rain jacket that keeps me warm and dry. Comfy too. Only complaint is that there are no pit zips to vent the jacket when I'm out running/cycling.

I bought this for walking in my neighborhood in the rain. I wanted to be seen and stay dry. It's the perfect fit and the hood is big enough to keep the rain off my face. Great design!

The perfect jacket for the mild drizzly Seattle weather

It feels very good and comfortable

I normally wear a L in shirts, but most of the reviews said this ran big so I ordered a M. It's a bit snug across the bust. But the arms are extra long so maybe it would fit a monkey. I do like the fabric, tho, so I'm going to order a L so it'll fit over whatever top I have on. Very light weight.

This fits me perfectly, and is flattering. I am 5’1” and weigh about 124 pounds, and the medium fits me perfectly with enough room for my Patagonia Nano Puff jacket and a fairly thick sweater or fleece underneath.

Perfect for our cruise. Did reorder a larger size because the material has ZERO give so when you move your arms, the jacket doesn’t give any along the back shoulders plus it’s not pleated.

I love everything about this jacket which is going to go with me to Europe later this fall. It is lightweight, packable, and waterproof. I love the zippers to keep out pickpockets, plus the velcro for quick on/off. It fits beautifully. I am a size 6, but ordered the Medium due to bust size. Fits great, looks great.

I bought this jacket in the navy blue color, in a size medium. I am 5' 10" and 117 lbs and because I'm so tall with long arms i bought a medium. The medium is a great fit for me. I am able to wear it by itself but there is also room for a few layers underneath. it comes down to a perfect length. It does its job and keeps you dry. The arms came down to right after my wrist and have a velcro at the wrist where you can make it tight at the wrist. The jacket also has two zippered hand pockets. The hood has a little visor thing almost to keep the water away from your eyes, but you can't really tell when you look at the jacket so thats good. The hood also has drawstrings so you can make it tighter. the only possible downside to it is that the hood is not very roomy. But that should not deter you from choosing this jacket. i was debating between this and a few other columbia rain jackets and some other brands. also i bought this online without trying it on in a store. Overall, this jacket has turned out great and exactly what i am looking for. if you are hesitating between this and some other columbia rain jackets, this is for sure a reliable choice.

Effective jacket. I haven't had the opportunity to wear it yet in pouring rain, but in light, continuing rain it's quite effective. The jacket does get hot though because it does not have any venting.

Love this rain coat! Its more feminine/flattering than some others I've tried. Not warm, but lined with mesh. I would recommend

I purchased the jacket for my trip to London in early June. I received it fairly quickly. The jacket is true to fit; it appeared as advertised on the site, too bad there were no inside pockets. The price was right. Overall very pleased with my purchase...thanks Zappos.

Clean lines with just a little bit of tapering around the waist to be more flattering. I am 5'4", 130 lbs and the small fits well, with enough room for a couple of layers underneath. Not a fan of the velcro, but it doesn't show too much. Everything else (zippers, material, etc.) is very nice.

fits well and look nice. The only downside is that the hood is not quite large enough to keep rain off.

This is a very pretty and comfy jacket. I wanted it to help keep me dry inside, which it does. I am a size 12 but ordered the X-Large so I can layer and it's a good size. I wish it was longer though. The sleeves have Velcro which is okay but elastic would be easier than adjusting the Velcro. It's a really pretty, rich color with some purple in it, so it's more of a periwinkle than royal blue.

This runs large. My daughter is size 4 and was swimming in a size S. Also, the zipper catches on the Velcro overlay.

True to size. Color is darker than the picture, thus the four stars and not five (I got the Waterfall color , but it’s more of a green).

I love the iceberg/aqua color & the quality is good. I love these Columbia rain shells & needed a new one after 10 years with my last one! I dinged a star because I feel the old one I had was better quality/felt more substantial & had a few vents. Also, my other one's hood had a draw string around the edge of the hood while this one is about an inch in, so there's unstructured flapping that can happen in the wind. Although I have a small head & because of the draw string placement, I think my hairline will get wet. The size is spot on: I'm a typical XS & the XS fits great with room for a fleace (I'm 5'2, 118 lbs, 32C for reference). Great 5-star Zappos service & delivery.
