Customer Reviews Columbia Big & Tall Watertight™ II Jacket

Husband has not yet worn this jacket, but he likes the weight of it...Very light. We agree that the size is a little small, and ordered accordingly. Our advice is to order one size bigger. We did and he is happy with the fit.

Really like jacket...reviews I read before I ordered said jacket runs small...good advice.. I ordered size bigger...all other features proved to be accurate...

I have been looking for a lightweight water repellant and breathable jacket to wear on hikes and biking in 40 - 50 degree weather. I walked yesterday in the wind and ice and light rain, and was really impressed with this jacket. Looks like I'll be wearing it a lot. I wish it had zippered pockets and pit zips.

It is comfortable and 100% waterproof. Just what I was looking for. Runs a little large, but makes it possible to wear a sweatshirt under it. Definite bonus for living in New England.

The description does let you know it runs a little small. We order one size up and it fits perfectly. It's warm without being big and bulky.

I am 6'5" 230 lbs and normally wear a L shirt. I ordered XL tall and it is the perfect size. Big enough that I can comfortably layer underneath it. I wear mine almost daily on my motorcycle to cut the wind and it works well and has provided good rain protection. I like the construction of the jacket and it feels like it will last. The only criticism I have is that I wish it had a chest pocket.

Bought this for my son who is a truck driver and needed to stay dry in rain. He says this Columbia jacket is great.

I purchased this jacket as a gift for my husband. He really loves it! He's naturally a warm natured, big guy so he hates wearing heavy coats or jackets. This jacket was perfect for him! He can wear it as is or he can even layer up under the jacket without "overheating ". He's wears it in the rain and/or windy days. It's true to size & fits nicely. I would recommend this jacket to anyone.

This jacket works well for what I need it for. I like that it packs thin and light weight. I travel five times a month so it works out well when the weather changes where your at and you have a multi purpose all weather jacket. Water proof design and long body keeps your back and waist dry. The hood when you don't need it lays back and can feel funny back there, but no big deal. It is a great coat, fits well, layers can be added under the jacket, water tight, light weight easy to carry when the weather changes. I am happy with the purchase.

Good Quality, delivery was one day early and that day it rained. Was very comfortable and Watertight even in windy rainy conditions. Lightweight easy to pack and carry. Would highly reccomend this jacket to stay dry!

This great looking fall jacket keeps you dry in the rain and warm in the cold.

I am 6'2 and 400lbs and this jacket fits perfect as a 4XT. Breathable, lightweight and water resistant. Perfect throw on and go jacket. It fits well and I have comfortable room to maneuver.

The rain coat worked great stayed dry all day in the rain

This is a fantastic purchase. I am very happy about the choice. The jacket fit perfect, the breathable fabric, but watertight and very light. Unfortunately at the time of purchase I did not find the 1st choice color.

I have been using this for summer camp work i do outside, alongside with some outdoor education. It is not to heavy, I had been using my winter shell so in comparison it is not as hot. It fits just right to my size and i love the color.

I bought this item larger than I normally wear so I can layer clothing underneath.

My husband and I are taking a trip to Europe later in the summer. We needed waterproof jackets for the trip. Since Father's Day was so close, I decided to surprise him and purchase a jacket for him online. I chose the Men's Watertight II jacket in Rocket (red). He opened his presents last night and really loved the new jacket. I had him try it on since some reviewers thought it ran a little small. He said it was a perfect fit and it looked great on him! I ordered his usual size - a 2X and got it in Big. I think it is an excellent buy for the money.

I love the jacket! It fits great!

It came just before a large downpour and immediately lived up to it's waterproof reputation. Just a tad snug when fully zipped and going in & out of car. I am a LARGE woman: 5'6" 305# so I knew in advance it would be snug (5X would have been nice). As other reviews state, the lining does slide out of the wrist cuff a bit when you put jacket on, but not a big deal. Overall a great jacket for the price, would buy again for sure!

This jacket is extremely hydrophobic but breezy! Usually I have trouble finding long enough sleeves, but these are perfect. I would like to have more pockets and not to have the netting but overall I am really impressed!

The Watertight II Jacket (XLT) is a great all-weather product. The sleeves are a little tight when I wear a sweater.

My 15 y/o Columbia Rain gear retired. This new jacket kept me dry fishing in the snow on the Columbia River this morning. Looking forward to 15 more years!

I bought this to replace an older similar jacket because the price was right. I find it to be as good as the similar jacket under a competitor's name as far as waterproof is concerned. Additionally, it is large enough to allow layering of jackets under it so you can wear it in varying temperature days. I am very happy with my jacket. It arrived on a rainy day, so I got to use it right away.

My boyfriend picked it out and has already been able to enjoy wearing his jacket.

Used this in Alaska to handle salt spray and light summer rain. Performed great.
