Customer Reviews Columbia Alpine Action™ Jacket

It was time to upgrade from my old Columbia ski coat. This is great, and great for the price. I'm considering buying one for my son. The outside material seems very durable. The coat has a good number of pockets, including the one in the sleeve for lift gates that use RFID chips for lift passes. It's warm. I would say it runs a bit large. I usually wear an adult large sweatshirt but bought a medium and there is plenty of room for multiple layers under the coat. If I had a complaint, it would be on the inside "goggles" pocket. I'm not sure I would trust anything in it since it doesn't have a good closure like the pockets with zippers.

This is my second time purchasing this product and it still fits great. It's very warm and has pockets all over the place.

Stylish enough to wear out to dinner and warm enough for single digit mornings waiting for the train. Have yet to wear skiing but expect it will be good for this as well. Like the lining in the sleeves.

Very pleased with this jacket. Seems well made with alm the features needed for a ski trip. This jacket runs large. Normally wear a large but had to opt for the medium.

Excellent ski jacket -- just a heads up that it runs quite large. I normally wear a Large for Columbia fleece jackets and initially ordered a Large for this ski jacket, which I had to return and exchange for a medium as the large was far too big. I'm a 6 ft, 185 lb male with somewhat broad shoulders, and the medium fits perfectly.

Lightweight but still pretty warm. Good pockets. Happens to perfectly match a Columbia fleece I already have (including the red zipper on the chest pocket) so I have a matched liner for really cold conditions. I found this jacket runs large...I usually wear Medium (5'7", 150 lbs) but size Small fits me with this jacket. It fits right even with that fleece I already have worn underneath.

I own two of these coats. Extremely warm and waterproof. I use these coats each time I ski. Temps in single digits and high winds. Very warm. Cost is far less than many other costs. Great buy.

Almost perfect coat. Only thing I'd like to see is a loop for a ski ticket.

Super Comfortable, Warm but Light and Most Importantly Stylish!

Good ski details. Ajustable sleeves, apron. Net for goggles and gloves. Super light weight I like the graphite with blue combination.

Solid jacket with fuctional pockets. Great for skiing when I layered it with other clothes.

My husband loves the warmth and great pocket placement in this coat. He loves the orange color.

This jacket fits great and true to size. It looks and feels great!

Just received the jacket but the temperature dropped overnight and I'm glad I purchased it. The seams look sturdy, the thermal protection and insulation have kept me warm do's far. I usually wear and XL in men's jackets and the fit is good; what I'm used to. One reason I bought the jacket was the harvester color and I love it.

I have had the jacket for about two weeks and have worn it every day. I am 5' 10" and weigh 167 lbs. A large fits very well while allowing space for layering. Warm and wind-proof even though not bulky, but not too warm for skiing. The temperatures I have used it in range from 18-40 degrees. Haven't gone skiing with it yet but seems like it will do well.

Great Jacket has many pockets and has a feature where you can keep that keeps that snow and cold air from getting under your jacket. Lite weight and really comfortable.

Quality is great and is going to be great for being up in the mountains. XL leaves me plenty of room to layer up.

Great coat for the money. Wore it for the first time today. I will need to wear it more skiing to fully appreciate its features. First impression is that it is well made. Orange will provide easy identification of me on the snow.

Well made, comfy and warm! Plenty of pockets to hold gloves, and hat. Thanks guys!

This is probably one of the best jackets I ever wore in my entire life best for very cold weather like 10F and also on windy days

Super warm but lightweight jacket. I like the fact that it's warm enough without an inner zip out jacket. Need to layer but with a thermal long sleeve, and a cotton long sleeve, this jacket was warm enough for night skiing at 10 degrees with 10mph winds.

I love the zippered pockets (inside and outside), and also the adjustable hood and cuffs. The fabric has a nice feel to it too. I am very thin (115lb), and tall (5'11), so the large is the perfect length, but looks big on me. So I particularly appreciate the adjustable fit. It will fit great with a warm sweater underneath. :-)

I love this coat it fits perfectly and where it doesn't it's adjustable. I will be getting another in another color for certain. The pockets are deep, the optional drawstring is great as well. Lastly it's warm and wind proof it's a complete win!

Just received this and wore it for first time yesterday. Live in IN so bought this as we are heading into the coldest time of the year. Wore it yesterday spending a quite of bit of time outdoors taking down Christmas lights, temps upper 30's to low 40's and was not cold but not overly warm either. Seems well made, and liked the fabric style and color used on the exterior shell. We are expected to drop into the teens in the next few days so will see how it does in the colder temps, but feel it will likely perform well.

Bought this Jacket for my son who lives in Wisconsin and he absolutely loves it! He said it keeps him really warm and he loves the functionality of the jacket. Buying another today for my husband!
