Customer Reviews Columbia Plus Size Arcadia II™ Jacket

I bought this jacket for my wife for a trip to Iceland and WOW. She has used it on several occasions now and it has preformed flawlessly. Great quality and comfort. would recommend to anyone.

LOVE this jacket so light does keep rain out Was surprised no inside pockets which seemed to be one the be best features of your products cause you could keep your phone or glasses from getting wet or papers etc leaving you hands-free to deal with kid or whatever BRING BACK THE POCKETS PLEASE

Love my new jacket. Wasn't sure wether to get a Large or a 1x. Played it safe and got the 1x. Very happy with the sleeve length and roomy overall fit. I Like THE High quality and attention to detail on this item. The color was a nice bright white. And best of all it was on sale.

I love this jacket and absolutely had to get the two tone purple. It is the second one I've owned and have used it extensively for traveling. I love that it zips into its own pocket (although I like it when the pocket has a tab to attach to things which this version did not). I either wear a packable down vest or a coordinating fleece jacket underneath if it is colder. I would suggest ordering 2 sizes up if you plan on layering. This jacket keeps you dry even in the rainforest. This is a staple for every wardrobe!

On a recent trip our backpacks with our raincoats were stolen - this raincoat. I enjoyed this light coat so much I just ordered a second one. It is true to size, is not too clammy when it rains, and is versatile enough to be used as a light jacket during our trips. The lavender color I had is no longer offered, so I've ordered a beautiful blue one. I also have enough room to wear a light sweatshirt under it when it gets cold. It dries overnight in a hotel room after being rained on, too.

Going to college in a very rain town this coat has come in handy. It is very light and breathable. Pockets that zip up and dont leak, so need to worry about your phone!

This is a really compact rain coat great for packing for travel. I had to order up a size, but then it fit well. The bright lavender/intense violet is bright without being garish. Didn't realize that there are 2 colors-- darker panels on the sides-- from the photo, but it looks nice on.

I have had 2 of these jackets. The first one saw me through a 2 week trip through Europe in April when it was rainy and snowy. The jacket kept me dry and warm with an extra layer underneath. I lost the first one, so I got the same jacket again, and took it on a week-long trip rafting the Colorado through the Grand Canyon. It was durable and functional. I did get wet in the biggest rapids, but it was because water came in through the neck; I was doused with gallons of water at a time! The jacket did keep me warm, though. That water was cold! I appreciate being able to purchase quality outdoor wear in plus sizes.

This Jacket did not disappoint.. I love Columbia jackets because i have large arms and it's hard for me to find jackets that doesn't cut my circulation off..

Wind and water resistant along with a stylish cut. Very lightweight and packable. Beautiful color. I really like this quality jacket.

I love my plus size Arcadia jacket! It is exactly what I needed! The color and fabric are perfect!

I wore this jacket on a rainy day right after it arrived and then gave my old rain jackets away. I got this one in the mid blue color in one size larger than usual. It does not seem hot at all. The length is perfect with a little extra coverage. The front has a zip and Velcro too -very handy. Very nice quality.

Very nice waterproof jacket. Warm, yet very breathable. Fits perfect with just enough room to layer underneath. Very vibrant color; it's so much prettier in person. Highly recommend.

The jacket is very comfortable. I really love the color. And, it really works great for the rain.

This is my second Arcadia jacket and I love it. I love the fit and color selection available in my size. I also like that it kept me completely dry in a down pour while I was on vacation. I was outside for several hours while it was raining and everything underneath the jacket was dry. It is very light and functional. This jacket is a must have!

I bought my Columbia rain jacket because the last rain coat I purchased lost its rain proofing after a few washes. I've struggled to find a warm but not bulky jacket that truly is waterproof. This is it! Love the fit and the scrunch of the hood. I would definitely recommend this product and expect it to last a long time. Probably my new favorite spring/fall jacket

Very nice rain jacket I highly recommend!

Very nice rain jacket I highly recommend!

I love the weight and function of this jacket. As in other reviews, I would say it runs a little small and recommend to order up a size. I chose the light purple on a rainy day , the color is uplifting!

Nice light weight jacket for raining days. Keeps you nice and dry.

Great product true to size

Kept me dry, it's packable and plenty of room for layers. I've worn my Columbia vest or fleece underneath this. Sleeves were a little snug with the fleece underneath, but so cozy. Great jacket!

5 star jacket affordable, folds into it's own pocket for save conservation on the go

This is a great rain jacket for all seasons!!! This is my second time buying this exact jacket (only because I gained weight ) and this jacket is awesome! Definitely keeps you warm and definitely keeps you dry :) I highly recommend this for jacket for all seasons of the year.

This jacket keeps me dry in the pouring rain. Sizing permits a fleece jacket or sweater underneath for warmth.
