Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia™ II Jacket

I love the quality of this jacket! It's breatheable and attractive - love the stormy blue color! I usually wear large, but knowing Columbia usually runs small, I ordered the extra large, and it's perfect. The hood made the sale for me, everything I need to survive a rainy day!

This is my go-to rain jacket, live in New England so you never know what the weather has in store. Love it. I have a different rain jacket for colder days, this is more for spring/summer though could wear with a fleece underneath

Love this jacket , perfect lightweight . True to size. Will be more Columbia jackets.

Fits perfectly, keeps me warm and dry. Water comes right off and it dries quickly.

Own sooooooooooo many Columbia products, raincoat, just makes my closet one more coat complete. Excellent product, and great price. Also like the color!!!!!

I adore this jacket. I've had it for over almost 2 years now and I've put it through the ringer. It has kept me dry on week long backpacking trips, helped against wind on climbing trips and gotten me to class dry on a day to day use. I'm about 5'4" 130lbs and the medium fits perfectly to be able to layer a fleece underneath.

I wish I bought this back when I was in college last year because this is perfect for the random torrential down pours college campuses get. I currently use it for work and it keeps me completely dry. I recommend this to every college student who walks to class!

I ordered a size bigger than usual so I could have room for warm jackets underneath. This rain coat keeps me dry, and does offer a little warmth, but I'd reccommend wearing something warm underneath

Love this jacket! I have been using it as a light windbreaker/transition coat for winter into spring and it works wonderfully. I haven't spent too much time in the rain aside from walking to and from my car with it, but it works for that purpose (can't speak to longer use, yet). I used this as an outer shell recently while hiking Chimney Rock, and it worked well. Also, it is so pretty! Love the red!

A really nice jacket for rain and wind.

I recently purchased this jacket in dark raspberry. I absolutely love the color and get compliments every time I wear it! I normally wear a small (5'3" 135 pounds), but I just had a baby so I still have a little pregnancy weight. The small fit perfect, so may be a little large when I lose the last 20 pounds. All in all, its a great purchase.

I wore this over a thermal jacket this winter and I was warm and dry in the freezing rain!

This jacket performs beautifully in rainy weather. The best part is how the hood stays in place!!

This jacket was just what we needed. It is lightweight and keeps you dry when it rains. The jacket is mesh lined so it is perfect for the warmer months when you get stuck out in the rain.

This jacket is perfect and has come in handy for all the rainy days we have had

Love this! I was unsure about size & got a small and it's a little big but that's how I wanted it! Not too heavy and perfect for rainy days. Definitely recommend!

This is my first Columbia jacket and I am enjoying it. I must confess that I bought it based totally on the color (LOVED), but I am a fan of the fit as well. I purchased a medium and the fit is perfect; it's roomy without being too large and very comfortable. I find myself reaching for this jacket even when it's not raining--it's also a great windbreaker! I recommend!

This jacket is versitle and has been excellent for running. Fit is great and not too bulky or swishy. My daughter fell in love with mine and I had to order another!

This feels so comfortable, has a warmth to it that a thinner rain coat might not have. Hood is great as it stay up easy. I'm 5'6" and about 125 lbs and I got a S. It is just comfortable with a lightweight shirt under it.

Runs a little small. Very well made.

I was a little worried that it was going to run small, but when I got it, it fit perfectly! I wear this jacket all the time even when it's not raining since it's my new favorite.

Bought this rain coat to take on our Alaskan cruise later this summer, but will also come in handy on rainy days or on other hikes. Fit is true to size and flattering cut. The Blue Heron color is nice!

I wear this jacket a lot. It keeps me try. We get a lot of rain, so it gets used a lot. I bought a medium so I could layer under it, but I could get buy with a small. Could be a little longer, yet rain does not soak through. And I have been out in some heavy rains. Did not soak through so I stayed dry Some what warm with extra layers. Love the inside zipper pockets. When we go to the city I zip my wallet and my BART card and my keys in the inner pocket and don't have to worry about getting mugged on BART or walking through the city.

Bought this jacket to wear while doing sales and deliveries and love it. Very comfortable, functional and protects from the PNW liquid sunshine and wind in our neck of the woods.
