Customer Reviews Columbia Hexbreaker™ Long Down Jacket

Completely in LOVE with this coat! It's so light weight but extremely warm! The only thing I can say that I don't like about it, is that it shed's feathers a little and they get on your clothes sometimes. But overall I love it!

I have been shopping for a jacket for several weeks, trying on at least 20 puffer coats. This coat is perfect because it is longer and when you sit down, it covers your bottom. This is my 2nd Columbia jacket with "Omni-Heat" and this feature keeps you warm without adding bulk. Also, I like the velcro because it is a quick way to close the front of the jacket. The sleeves are long and have an inside cuff. I am 5' 9' and 152 lbs, with long arms. Highly recommend!

Great coat for windy winter days in Michigan. I like how lightweight the jacket is. I'm 5'0 100lbs and the jacket hits me below the knees and I have room to later underneath - size XS. I'd buy it again, I wear it daily!

Love my jacket. Ordered two different brands but kept the Columbia because it kept my legs warmer. The other brand allowed too much cold air to get trapped under the coat. I did order up a size to make sure I could wear thicker sweaters.

I bought this coat for my adult daughter.It looks fabulous on her, and fits perfectly. She is a very fit 5'3' and I got her a medium. She has room for a sweater under it,but still as a fitted look. It is not bulky. She reports that it is very warm,and she is always cold. We are both very happy with this purchase.

I purchased this jacket for my wife and she absolutely loves it. It's very warm, especially when considering how light the jacket is. The overall quality of the jacket appears good, with the occasional down feather poking through (but not too many). Given its warmth, fit, and style I'd rate this jacket as excellent.

I purchased this coat to replace my Columbia Hex coat when the zipper broke. I was really disappointed as I loved my Hex coat. But was over the moon when my new coat arrived. It is super soft and so much lighter than my previous coat. And of course the omni heat and insulation make it incredibly warm. I was out it -8 degrees and was completely comfortable. I did order a size up (normally I wear a L) and got the XL. I have plenty of room for a sweatshirt or sweater and still have ample room to move around without feeling constricted.

This coat has great features. It is lightweight but very warm. The soft material in the cuffs feels great and keeps cold wind out. The fitted waist makes you look thinner but allows room for layering. The removable hood fits great as well. Does not hang over your eyes as some hoods do.

Bought this coat for my 16 yr old. She's 5'5" & 115 lbs. and wears a Medium. She loves how lightweight it is and how warm it is keeping her. We've had a horrible stretch of really frigid temps here in Chicago (-14 degrees windchill) and this coat fits the bill. The detachable hood is a nice touch as she usually wears a knit cap instead of a hood. Nice and compact size so it fits into her school locker.

This is the best coat I have ever had! I wanted warm, but not bulky, stylish and functional. I got it all with this coat. I have found over the years you just can't beat Columbia! Their coats are easy to wear, wash and last forever! I am so excited for winter this year because of this light weight, wonderful, form-fitting, cozy coat. I want everyone in my family to have one! Thank-you Columbia!

I got this for my daughter who travels a lot. This jacket is perfect for cold Chicago days and packs away for those warmer cities. She loves it and is finally warm!!

I ordered this coat in a Large and it fit perfectly in the shoulders and hips, but was tapered in the waist and I could not wear anything under it. I recommend purchasing it one size larger than you normally wear.

I first got this jacket for my sister-in-law who lives in Minnesota. The following year both her daughters wanted the same coat and proclaim it is the perfect coat for their winters there! This year I bought one for my own daughter who chose to go to college there as well to help her stay active outside:)

I received my coat and it fit perfectly. I live overseas so having an item be true to size as is critical. The coat is well made and I love the retro squares! The thermal foil inside is a plus and since I have other Columbia poducts with this lining, I was glad to find a Down coat with this insulation feature. The longer length is perfect for those cold, snowy days!

I live in the midwest, where it gets pretty darn cold. This coat will carry me through the extreme cold. It's incredibly lightweight but so warm. The mineshaft color is so pretty.

I recently bought this coat for my wife. Every time she wears it, I get a continual stream of "Thank You's" and how much she loves the coat. Its light and super warm. The varying size of the quilting pattern is great for slimming a down coat.

She loves the coat!!

I bought this coat for my wife. She is thrilled with this coat. It is extremely warm, and very firm fitting and attractive. I would recommend it highly for the bitter cold.

This is a beautiful jacket. It is lightweight and warm. The style is so much nicer than the traditional puffy down..this has a lovely silhouette.

Finally a coat that does the job of keep me warm and dry during those nasty winter days. This is the best investment I have made for myself. I gave away my old coat. I have an immune disorder and the cold weather makes it more painful to have a normal routine. This coat was the answer to my prayers. I live in Northern Indiana, in the bowlineline between Chicago IL and Indiana. We get the same weather and its a killer. I do not longer have to worry about staying warm and suffering throughout the winter while wearing multiple layers plus a random coat.

I took this coat to Iceland and Alaska in February, and found it kept me surprisingly warm. It's not a heavy coat, and I was a little concerned that I'd be cold even though it has the Omni-heat lining. I'm quite happy with it. Also, it's white (not a great idea for me), and it needed washing quickly. Fortunately, it also washed easily.

This coat is warm and offers full coverage, which is exactly what I was looking for. The length is flattering and his just above the knee in front. It can be dressed up or down. Very warm and cozy for my Northern Michigan winters!

Great looking jacket! Flattering fit - not big and bulky as many down jackets can be. This was for my petite mom who appreciated that the coat wasn't heavy but was still quite warm. It also compacts nicely for packing. I would definitely recommend this product.

I am 5'0' and 135 lbs and got a medium and it fits perfect. The coat is very light weight but warm. I love this coat now my daughter wants one and is using mine s a blanket sometimes.

This is my third long down jacket from Columbia and it is my favorite. It is lightweight, stylish, and most of all keeps me very warm and cozy. I've worn it in the snow with temperatures in the 20's and was very pleased with how warm the jacket kept me. The combination of omni-heat and down filling makes this the ideal winter jacket.
