Customer Reviews Columbia Arcadia II™ Jacket

This item does run a little small so you may want to size up. If you have hips, I highly suggest you size up. Due to the length of the coat it zips up right at your hips and if you have hips like me you will have to pull it up over your hips to get it to zip.

I bought it big so I can wear sweaters or sweatshirts underneath. Probly could have bought size medium.

This product is very thin but still good for rainy days. However, I ordered the color white & was not expecting there to be a dark grey down the sides of the jacket. I wish it would have been completely white. Other than that though, good product

I bought the Red Lily. But when opened the package, the actual color was like orange. Other than that, as expected, nice quality jacket from Columbia. Does not make squishy noise or wrinkle. Rain proof with interior mesh liner for breathability. Very light and small, definitely great for home use or travel. I have not tried it in warm weather during rain so cant speak for how hot it may get. Would recommend.

I'd give it five stars if the material is a bit thick. To me, the size is slightly smaller but still fit with light T-shirt.

I got a red/coral color and it is so pretty and goes with everything. I got a size M and it is large enough to wear layers under it. The only thing I was disappointed about was that it was a little too long for me. I am 5'1.5" and have a short torso - the bottom of the jacket came down below my butt and it's a little uncomfortable but I just have pulled it up a little so it's scrunched up a little. Otherwise overall I like it and think it's going to be a great addition to my closet.

I haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but it seems well made and I love the color. It is lightweight, so it won't be uncomfortably warm during summer storms.

I love the jacket, it's great and the color is awesome. The only thing I'd look to change is the cut around the waist. I'm not looking for some skin-tight curvy jacket by any means, but I thought this would have just a little more cut to it. It left me looking a little frumpy around the middle. Maybe I can try a smaller size but I worry it might get too tight around the shoulders. But it is a jacket that works well and can fit other layers underneath.

The jacket was absolutely perfect. While the sleeves were a little long, I am a petite. I guess the long sleeves should have been expected. I know computer monitors do not accurately reflect color, but the Wine Berry was so bright, I just couldn't see keeping it. Online it looked more like a brick color, but it is in fact more of a fuschia. I'm disappointed, and really wish this could have worked out better. It's an awesome product.

Love this item. Fits great and met all my expectations.

I love the fit of this jacket. I'm about 95 pounds, 5 feet tall, and XS fit perfectly. The fit is forgiving enough for layering. Aesthetically, you get a unique pop of deep purplish blue from the color Dynasty. The hood appears to have plenty of coverage and can be adjusted with bungee toggles. It's not a stowaway hood nor detachable. But if you're like me, that's a plus. I don't like hunting around for a misplaced hood or having to detach or attach one. I have not worn the jacket outside yet to prove its reliability or function. It's stylish enough without being too sporty or technical. For some of the downsides, it fastens with velcro and the material is stiff, and not fabric-like.

I bought it for my wife. She likes it and gives a good review. She recommends this raincoat.

I wish I hadn't used price as my deciding factor! I like this jacket and will keep it but I find the hood isn't quite as "deep" as I like so doesn't cover/protect my face from the rain as well as I would like and there are only two pocketswould have liked a Napoleon pocket at least but inside pockets would have been nice, too. I am a medium but bought a large as I wanted to be able to wear a sweater or fleece underneath on colder days. But it does seem to run true to size.

This rain coat I haven't got to use in a Heaven down poor. I love the color and fit. It's not bulky and I have room to layer if I want in the small. I'm 5" 6' And about 135lbs. I purchased the green color and it looks just like it did online. Love Columbia products and I'm a satisfied customer.

It's a nice jacket but it runs small

The jacket runs small but is comfortable and water resistant!! Great colors also. recomment it..

Living in Houston means that the weather changes all of the time. It can be sunny and bright one second, and then pouring rain the next. This is where this rain jacket comes in. I keep it in my car and pack it into my purse, and it's the perfect jacket to protect me from the rain. I highly recommend this jacket.

I liked this jacket because it is great quality! I stayed dry in the rain. I liked the fit, I fluctuate as an athlete and it seems it would fit if I was a s/m or m/l

This jacket was much smaller than I anticipated. I received a medium but it fits me pretty small. I have long arms but I typically wear a medium with no issues.

This jacket is true to size very light weight. I would say it's more of a spring summer rain coat and is thin. If your looking to wear a sweater underneath order a size up but due to thinness I would recommend wearing in warmer weather.

Just order a size up! Runs real small!

Love the quality of this jacket, but wish it would have been a little heavier. It will be good for a warm rain.

I have been wanting a rain jacket for a while and stumbled onto the Acadia II. My only complaint is how small it is cut. I wear a medium shirt and normally get large jackets for the extra room. When I first tried it on I immediately noticed it was tight across the shoulders and not roomy. I easily could have ordered an xl. Still though is great Columbia quality and looks super cute

Great jacket overall love the color going to buy a few more colors in this style. Easy to take on and off and to put in my bag.

Brought the arcadia II for the Mrs, and shes loved it. Great girly colour, and great function for going around town and light hikes. Water proof and keeps her dry in most normal wet conditions. I brought a watertight II for myself also, which is in the same category rain jacket. Also pretty decent jacket. Well done Columbia!
