Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia™ II Jacket

Great looking jacket, sleeves just too long for me! 5'4 110lbs I ordered a small. Should have ordered an XS

I'm a professional dog walker so I'm required to work in all weather. I'm in and out of my car into the elements multiple times a day. My body heats up and cools down back and forth all day. I struggle to find clothes that truly keep me dry, breathable material, light weight and comfortable. This jacket hits all the marks! I highly recommend!

Ordered the 3rd got here the 5th!! Super comfy jacket Was iffy about the dark green color but love it in person!

Love this rain jacket! True to size, comfy, love the color. Keeps rain away.

I love this jacket! It's a perfect fit and is extremely versatile. I'm able to wear it over regular clothes to stay dry or even wear it over some of my non-waterproof gear to stay dry. It's surprising may warm for how lightweight and functional it is. I'd highly recommend it. This is my 2nd purchase of the same jacket, just got it in a smaller size this time because I enjoyed my other one so much!

This is a great lightweight raincoat. It is perfect for what I needed. I would recommend it.

Great packable rain gear! Love the hood. I ordered a large, since I think Columbia runs small.

the price is good, the colour I like. thin fabric, suitable for spring or summer .

I use this rain jacket for field work at El Yunque National Rainforest in Puerto Rico and it works great. It keeps me dry all day.

I have not used this jacket a lot yet, but I every time I have it has worked very well! I recently traveled to Ecuador and it kept me dry while exploring in the rain forest. However, I did get pretty sweaty underneath while hiking and having it zipped up. This was in 80 degree humid weather though so that was expected. I am 5'6" and 145 pounds and I ordered the medium. It fits well! There is some room for a sweatshirt to fit underneath, but it is not excessively baggy.

Its comfortable, you can wear it anytime

Love the jacket, fits well, keeps me warm, and keeps the water out. I would totally buy this product again. I'm new to the Columbia family, it looks like we have establish a friendship!

Great jacket I bought two, a blue and a black! It runs normal sizing with a LITTLE extra room but it's supposed to be a slightly loose fit for layering. Great quality jackets especially at this price and love that they're packable for hiking/backpacking!

I have been amazed at how well my gear has lasted. Over thirty years i have been using the same parka and snow pants for back pack trips. I think it was about time to get some new stuff. I love my new parka. I hang it next to my old faithful one. In theory I should not have to buy one for the rest of my life. Thank you Columbia for the best gear ever.

Wore this to Mr Vernon under a furred vest. It kept me warm on a windy cold day.

I bought this primarily for rain but it hasn't rained yet so I haven't gotten a chance to try out the quality. It's a little bigger than I thought, which is perfect because sometimes I want a jacket under (like when it snows). It still fits nice if I'm just wearing a t-shirt which was my goal. I bought Night Shadow and it's very pretty in person.

Bought for my wife as her current size medium rain jacket had somehow become too small..... She loves the color the fit and dry comfort let it rain!

Jacket arrived promptly and lived up to its promotion. Attractive, comfortable fit, great features and lightweight for traveling - my priority.

I bought this for my 17 year old granddaughters birthday. She is looking at colleges and this will get lots of use. Heaven forbid I would suggest an umbrella, this fits the bill perfectly.

Kept me dry and was warm when I had 2 light layers underneath. I did size up to Large (when I'm normally a M) bc in jackets I want to be able to layer and not feel constricted.

This is the 4th Arcadia jacket I've purchased. The first one was the Arcadia and now I have 3 of the Arcadia II in different colors. I find them very versatile as a shell that blocks rain and wind, and wear them over a vest, quilted jacket, and/or fleece, making adjustments to the layering as I warm up or the weather changes during a hike. It coordinates well with these other products in the Columbia line in terms of colors, length, and fit. The mesh lining is more comfortable against the skin in hot weather than other rain jackets I have that have just the rainproof membrane on the inside. The one feature the older Arcadia version had that I wish the newer version had is the inside security pocket. But this style is my main go-to choice for a rain shell on and off the trail.

This jacket is great! I live in Florida and am moving to Seattle so it goes without saying I needed a rain jacket. Its lightweight but covers very well. Stylish and fits true to size.

It started raining in LA, CA and needed a rain coat but not a warmer coat for colder day. This one is enough on those days that I just need a jacket to keep dry and a bit warm.

I love the breathable material abd bright color. Exactly what I expected.
