Customer Reviews Columbia Watertight™ II Jacket

I honestly love this rain jacket. I wanted something light weight not bulky that it restricts movement, and that would shed water not absorb it, the material is amazing, the rain here in New England is relentless and makes you feel as if the rain water is being poured on you rather than rained down on you and Yup, it continues to withstand the rainy day(s) season! I would highly recommend this jacket to anyone who wants to be comfortable and dry!

I just purchased my SECOND men's Columbia rain jacket a couple days ago. I liked the first one, but so did someone else, apparently, and mine was "exchanged"/stolen? for another brand rain jacket! I take this, in one sense, as a compliment to the product, but still angered at the loss of the first jacket, a year old and like brand-new. Don't let this episode keep you from purchasing a Columbia product, but do keep your eyes on its whereabouts, or better yet, when out and about, near you, knowing you have something with a good reputation for quality and function! Something that others would like to have, too.

Lightweight easy to cary cool. Not worry anymore about not get wet by the rain but get wet by the sweat.

It's an awesome rain coat! I've already tested it out and the rain flows right off the material. I intend on using it for fishing, hiking, and general outdoor use when walking around city/neighborhood. I'm generally medium and the medium fit well, and I even can layer a packable coat under it for extra warmth on cold/rainy chicago days. Excellent range of motion, it's not tight around shoulder and arm holes, which is a problem I usually have. A nice length, just below waist.

Does its job well, keeps you dry and it looks good. Would buy again

I love quality of my waterproof jacket

I had one of these jackets when I went to Europe for 10 days. It rained most of the first three days I was there. The day I was in Salzburg had particularly heavy rain all day. This jacket kept me dry all day long and even provided protection for my camera. I could sneak it out and take a quick shot but keep it dry the rest of the time. It also packs very well, is very light weight, and makes a good outer layer in cooler weather. I like it so much that after I recently lost a lot of weight, I bought the exact same jacket and color in a smaller size for the Seattle winter rains.

This jackey is not bad at all. I bought it, a little skeptical on how it would be, but I was good with it. Great product, definitely worth the money! You won't be upset.

It's a perfect jacket. It can prevent wind and rain well. Just recommend.

the fit is awesome! its looks great

Well built product arrived as described. "Hidden Pocket" is actually the handpocket turned inside out

Looking for a jacket that could handle wind, rain, and also help be warm. Couldn't be happier

The jacket works well. Water just stays on top of jacket. Great fit, need to look at the size guide. Slightly too thin, so you may need to put another layer underneath.

Mine disappeared one day. I liked it so much I had to get another!

I bought this jacket so I can walk home from work, and I definitely can without problems. Its lightweight yet durable. waterproof. Love the color as well!

Okay so I am a jacket addict, and I have gone through the twelve coat program more than once. But this is the Northwest and a good rain jacket is a necessity. Wearing it you don't even know it is there and carrying it has the same effect. I used to hate it when the fickly weather we have decides to ignore the weatherman's predictions and turn out clear and blue and you have on the big bulky rain coat that now serves zero propose. This jacket being weather proof but light weight is easy to pack, layers perfectly and is one reason I have become a Columbia Jacket addict.

I live in Deep South Texas where we have 1 1/2 seasons! A little Cold but mostly just HOT & HUMID! This jacket is perfect for those rainy days where the temperature is above 80 degrees. It's not too heavy and the construction & quality is FANTASTIC!!! I purchased an XL in Hot Pepper color & also large for my son's in Black & Gray. I'm 6' 2" & weigh 240 lbs. The fit is true to size.

Just one word to describe this product AMAZING!

I purchased this jacket as a last minute waterproof, lightweight, breathable jacket before my trip to the North Cascades. During my trip, it was cold, snowing, and raining majority of the trip. Absolutely lived up to what it said it were capable of. Did not absorb a drop of rain and ventilated excess body heat during my activities. If you're wearing a base layer underneath, it will definitely hold in SOME heat, so don't over layer yourself, but don't expect this jacket to be warm like a down filled jacket. The only bad thing I can say about this very well worth jacket is to be cautious if you track your activities with a smart watch. I noticed while wearing my watch under the jacket, the material the jacket is made of can accidentally function/press buttons if rubbed up against the watch. If needed, you could easily pack this jacket into a day pack taking up a very small amount of space. All in all, as an outdoor enthusiast, I highly recommend this product.

Lightweight, yet warm and perfect for light rain and windy days. Great for travel. Just tuck it in your backpack and you're ready for light showers or cool nights.

Bought the jacket for my son for this winter. He tried and loved it. I will be ordering one again for my husband.

Awesome product to have. Its a perfect fit and functions well. Planning to move to Oregon/Washington then you better to have this jacket :-)
