Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia™ II Jacket

I needed a solid jacket to take on a trip to Alaska that would be light, but still keep me warm & dry. This jacket totally fit the bill. I got stuck hiking in a torrential downpour for a couple hours. Yes, hours -- but all of my layers underneath the coat remained completely dry. This is a fantastic investment if you are looking for something light & functional to keep you dry. I've also worn it on some fourteener summit hikes & it worked well in keeping me warm despite high winds.

I love this periwinkle blue color and get compliments on how pretty it is. It has both a front zipper and Velcro straps. The sleeves have Velcro straps to tighten around your wrists. Nice pockets too. Definitely light-weight. I weigh 130- 5 ft. 3 and Small is perfect.

I purchased this jacket for my sister who moved to Colorado without a rain jacket. The size small was too small even though she isn't a big lady. So I reordered a medium in the purple lotus skyward in size medium. The color is beautiful, fits great with room to layer underneath. We are satisfied with our purchase.

Nice rain jacket. True to size. Just complaint make a little more noise then I would like to.

My wife and I bought it for our niece and she liked it so much we bought a second one for our other niece. Simple as that. They are teenagers and they loved it so much they called us to tell us. That's right you heard me, teenagers called once to thank us and again to doubly thank us. Can't beat that recommendation.

light weight and great for those rainy days.

Very comfortable and functional. I'm 5 foot and 95 pounds, the XS was a pretty good fit despite being long in the arms. Ended up returning and going with a better fitting North Face

True to the Columbia name for quality and style and the price is a great buy.

Love the light weight of this jacket, easy to carry in my backpack, and not stifling hot.

It's super comfy, not as noisy and it's really convenient because it barely takes any room. I've gotten plenty of compliments so far. I would totally recommend this to someone!

Really nice and comfy!

I searched for a while for a rain jacket and this one is perfect! Folds into it's own pocket.

The perfect jacket for running in the morning when them temperatures are in the 40s. It's comfortable and light!

This does exactly as advertised!! I just wore it for a football game where it was pouring raining. Did not leak at all! Fits well and you can, depending on size, fit a sweater underneath it. Excellent value for the money.

Although I live in California where it never rains, this jacket keeps me dry on every hiking trip. It has adjustable straps which is very helpful. Looks great! I am 5'6 and 115 pounds and ordered a medium because I like to layer alot. Fit perfectly.

I bought this jacket specifically for a trip to BC during their rainy October. It is lightweight so I got a large so that I could layer clothes underneath. Worked great. I stayed completely dry. The hood has elastic that you can tighten down with wind and it does not drip in your face!

Love this jacket. Description and pictures were very accurate. Thank you Zappos!

Great rain Jacket!! It came just in time for an outdoor event! Wife loves it!!

This jacket is great for walking in the rain

This jacket will be traveling all over the globe, I am tall (5.9) it is a nice length and the sleeves are long enough, it is light weight has some warmth when just a little cool, but it breathes and does not make you sweat or sticky, can be worn indoors without looking like an outdoor coat and will easily slide in the outside pocket on your suitcase, will also fit in my purse, also folds into its own pocket.

I am absolutely in love with this jacket. It looks really nice and I've gotten compliments everytime I wear it. It also has a nice shape and it doesn't feel bulky. I bought the ryby red color and it's a very girly and pretty color.

This is more of a shell jacket, but just like all the Columbia merchandise it is great! Was looking for a rain jacket, and I found what I was looking for. I got it in white.
