Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia™ II Jacket

This jacket looks nice on and is very functional.

I purchased this for my daughter for her first adventure camping trip. After she returned after spending a week in the mountains camping and hiking. She reportedly said her jacket held very well doing those rainy days. She had no problem staying dry during the time it rained and for the rest of the week. I will definitely be purchasing one for myself and recommending this jacket to others.

This jacket is real light weight so if it is cooler out you will need to layer it with something else. When I wore it in Glacier NP I had a Columbia light weight long shirt sleeve shirt and then the typical fleece Columbia jacket under it and I was warm even though it was raining, cold and windy. Probably about 40 out. Love that it is easily packable! Fits nicely into my Osprey day pack along with everything else. Would recommend it for your basic rain jacket. My wife's review.

I used this jacket for a rainy day at disney and it kept me dry the whole time

This jacket is lightweight enough that I can move without feeling restricted or overheated yet will keep the chill out from a cold rain. The fit is great. I was right in between a L and XL on my measurements and decided to go with a L because I don't like things baggy, especially when I'm hiking or moving a lot, it fits just like Id hoped. It is an attractive jacket and the two tone colors are really nice. The construction and durability are top notch. Very please with my rain jacket and plan to get much use out of it!

This jacket is very water resistant and is lightweight and breatheable. Very highly recommended.

Modern, comfortable and classic jacket

This jacket is definitely water proof! It's fits well and I wear it when it isn't raining as well. Much better than any other water resistant jacket I have had. Also can be rolled up very small! It's light as well l, and breaks the wind!

I bought this jacket to wear in the wonderful windy/rainy weather of Washington. I typically use it as an exercise piece of clothing, but occasionally I will wear it when I go in town. The overall quality of this jacket is great for the price...even better...it's at a discounted price when bought through Zappos. 5 stars for the comfort because it does a great job at keeping rain off and wind out. It probably isn't the most stylish rain coat, but it will get the job done at a fraction of the price for a fancier style.

I previously had a 3 in 1 jacket from Columbia and loved it, but it is now too small for me. I needed to replace that jacket and another from another company. My previous Columbia wore very well, was waterproof and very versatile so I chose to try this Women's Arcadia II which I know will serve me for many years to come. Thank you Columbia for quality wear. I chose XL so I could layer with a sweater.

Love this jacket !! Jacket is perfect for this rainy spring weather yet light enough for warmer temperatures. Quality only to expect from columbia.

I am 5'4'' (150lbs) and a large fits very well. The hood keeps my head and face dry, and I like that it is long enough to cover most of my butt. I haven't had a chance to test it in a heavy downpour yet but am very satisfied with the quality of the material and style. It is also very lightweight and easy to pack for long hiking trips.

Rain jacket came in timely just as promised. High quality jacket for those rainy days. Great buy!!!

This is the perfect rain jacket! It fits true to size and repels water great! I would highly recommend this jacket and you can't beat the price!!

Super rain-proof jacket, lightweight but very water proof. Love the color and the fit, pockets zip up so things won't fall out if you put them in there while hiking, etc.

Fits true to size and is lightweight while still keeping me dry. I am 5'10, so it can be hard to find jackets that are long enough in the torso and arms, but this one fits well. Highly recommended

Love the way this jacket looks and fits.

Breathable, lightweight, and it keeps you dry. Couldn't ask for more

This was a gift for my mom, and she loves it. I chose Columbia because I've never been disappointed with the quality and style. It's the perfect weight, and packs nicely. Great purchase!

I love this jacket. It is so soft, breathable and comfortable compared to other rain jackets I've worn. I am so glad I bought this.

This is an excellent, simple rain coat. It has nice structure and works wonderfully as both a windbreaker and a water resistant jacket. I wouldn't recommend for super cold weather (without layers beneath) but perfect for those spring heavy downpours.

This is a great jacket! Keeps me dry and has nice ventilation!

This rain jacket fits great and it does not feel like you are wearing a rain jacket. Very comfortable, roomy pockets and I love the hood.

I purchased this jacket for a trip to Ireland in February, so I ordered it a size larger than I normally wear, so that I could layer underneath it and it ended up being exactly the right size! I can fit a nice warm sweater or jacket underneath this shell while hiking and stay perfectly dry. I have used the jacket without layering and it still looks great too. The seam sealing and Omni-tech keeps me totally dry while hiking or while I'm just our running errands and the best part is that it doesn't have that sticky feeling I get with most other rain jackets! All-in-all I have to say that this was a great purchase that I would make again!

Great rain jacket. Fits well and keeps you dry without feeling like you're in a plastic bag.
