Customer Reviews Columbia Sweet As™ Softshell Hoodie

I ordered a XL. It fits a bit tight. For comfort, I probably should have ordered a size bigger. Other than that the jacket is lightweight, and waterproof! I had never purchased from Columbia and I'm glad I did! Def, recommend!

This jacket is excellent. It’s stretchy and slimmer fitting than other windbreakers that tend to be straighter cut. I’m gonna wear this to my son’s games. It gets windy in the bleachers and sometimes it rains, so the hood is perfect. I love the stretchy soft feel! I bought a size larger than normal, as per reviews and it fits great. I like a bit of room to wear sweaters underneath.

Great very light weight jacket! Looking forward to having it compliment my fall/winter wardrobe and it will be a great little running jacket too

Love this little rain jacket! I have several Columbia style rain jackets and am never disappointed. This one is shorter, stretchier and more fitted than my previous ones. I wanted something light but rain proof to wear to work and out and about. Not a typical wind breaker rain jacket feel, the texture is very nice. Spring in Seattle goes from sunny to rainy and back to sunny on a daily basis. This jacket is perfect for these weather swings. It's light enough to hike in, but warm enough to watch the kiddos play softball in the evening. I like the cozy pockets as well. Some jackets your hands don't land correctly in the pockets, this one is very comfortable. The sleeves are long enough to bunch up slightly, which I like. I'm 5'6, 140lbs and ordered a small and the fit is what I was going for.

Love this jacket - it’s my everyday jacket for every season besides winter. It’s flattering and comfortable.

I bought an XL although I'm petite and usually wear a Medium. Otherwise, this is the perfect travel jacket, lightweight and with a hood. I had to re-purchase this jacket because I lost in in Greece. Love it!

Lightweight perfect jacket for work/gym/errands. Love this jacket so much I purchased a second one for work.

Bought this to replace the same Columbia Sweet As jacket I lost earlier this year. Just can't live w/out itlightweight, slightly stretchy fabric that fits trim but not tight. Love the extra inch or so in sleeve length that still covers my wrists while hiking w/poles. Beautiful melon color. It's perfection in a springtime/summer active jacket!

I love this jacket but as others noted the fit runs small so I ordered 1 size larger and it fits perfect!

Great material and fit! A bit snug on the stomach area for a Large but not a deal breaker.

This windbreaker is very well-fitted, slim, and relatively sleek. It is a dark enough color to work as a navy or a black. It's a great deal for the price and is comfortable and easy to wear. I have not owned a windbreaker prior to this one, but I bought it before a 2-week early-summer Europe trip, during which I ended up wearing the windbreaker every single day (light enough for warm daytimes, nice to have for cooler, windier nighttimes). It is not too warm (just very helpful against wind and a slight chill), but it fits a thin sweater underneath it (I wore a light cashmere sweater beneath it comfortably, and, on cold, rainy days, a thicker cotton sweatshirt beneath it very snugly). I found it very versatile, innocuous (for a windbreaker), and enjoyable to wear. It was particularly helpful, compared to a regular jacket, during wet weather, for which I greatly appreciated it. I am really looking forward to wearing it in the Fall and Spring in Boston (wouldn't be warm enough in the winter unless paired with a sweater, but like I said, a very thick sweater underneath it starts to get uncomfortable / too snug).

perfect for layering. the sleeves are oddly long??

Very nice

Nice light weight jacket but not what I expected for the price. It is about the same weight as a long sleeved tshirt. I kept the jacket because it will be nice for summer nights but it isn't worth the price. It does run a little small so I would recommend sizing up depending on what you might wear it for or with.

This is not a softshell jacket it's a flimsy windbreaker

What a rip off. A very thin coat for $80. No thank you.
