Customer Reviews Columbia Benton Springs™ II Long Hoodie

I loved the style and color but sadly it's to small , I can wear it but can't zip it , wanted to exchange for a xl but this color was sold out and it's the color I want so be aware it does run atleast an size small maybe it's the cut I wear a med - large on all jackets but not this one

Im 5'6'' and this goes down over my butt. And it's not tight there.

It looks like it did in the photo. I love the midnight color. It's long so it's warm. And it's comfortable and attractive

I normally wear a medium in clothes but get large in coats and jackets. I bought a large and expected to have a little more room for layering. It's not real tight but I won't be able to wear much under it. Took away one star because there is no elastic at the sleeve ends.

I really love it !!!

I have loved the Benton Springs jackets for years now, but had never gotten one of the long version before thinking that it would be to confining. Now that I have one I like it a lot, and it's not confining at all. And the longer length and added hood give it a bit more warmth than the other version. Definitely a new favorite!

Nice fit, great quality

I was so excited to see that the Benton Springs jacket came in a long version with a hood! However I was sorely disappointed when I received the jacket. It fits oddly through the back due to a seam across the back. I truly wanted to love this jacket and even ordered a size larger so that I could wear thick sweaters under it, but the fit is too uncomfortable. Please make this in a more roomy version. I love the idea, but it was a poor fit. If it was a better proportioned jacket I would buy several colors because the idea of longer jacket was perfect and the hood, the icing on the cake.

I am 5'7" and 150 lbs and 34 DDD I ordered this fleece in a large because of reading other reviews. I am kinda disappointed in the overall construction of the jacket which makes me sad because I have wanted this fleece for years. First of all, its long, which I wanted, but it looks funny when you are wearing it and it also feels funny...almost bunchy in the hip area but there is plenty of hip room for movement. ( I could have gotten away with a medium) Secondly, the hood is a slight problem. There is no way to cinch it down so its either in your eyes or it blows off. Thirdly, the wind goes right through the jacket. I have other fleece jackets from other makers and I feel that they are actually warmer than this particular fleece. I didn't hate it enough to send it back but I don't like the look of it enough to wear it out and about other than to walk the dog or maybe do some yard work in it. I love Columbia products, but this one just wasn't for me.

I am loving my new long hoodie, it's been PERFECT for these cold New England winter months -- I've mostly been wearing it with my yoga pants on my way to and from working out. I love the length and the warmth. I would not hesitate to buy another one. I've owned it for about 3 weeks and washed it 4 or 5 times and it seems to be holding up well.

I love this jacket . It covers very well. It's lightweight but keeps you warm. I use it along with my vest so layering is great!

I love this fleece, I wear it to work everyday because my office is cold and I couldn't be happier with it. The quality is amazing and I love the length.

This hoodie is perfect for everyday use. My wife likes it very much. It can be helpful to choose one size larger since it runs a little smaller than usual Colombia hoodies.

This product is super comfortable but they only complaint is that it is not wind proof. When outside you can feel the wind through the fabric. If it's super cold, I wear a coat over it.

I like the longer cut but these run a little big and thicker fabric than I wanted. I usually wear a small in Columbia but needed an XS. Item was returned.

It looks almost like a pre-faded black so it doesn't match any of my other blacks. The hood is a good size but it doesn't have drawstrings. The arms/armpit is kind of snug. I wanted this hoodie to be perfect but it's just almost there on a few aspects.

Love the jacket! It's a very nice comfortable jacket. It keeps you nice and warm. Perfect for fall and spring. You can even wear it in the winter time to keep you cozy or underneath a winter jacket if the temperature is really cold outside. Love that it's longer and covers your kidneys and front! Runs true to size.

I love this hoodie! It's my favorite-I bought it in 4 colors. It is super cozy-love that it has pockets with zippers and a hoodie. My only wish is that it had thumb loops too, that would make it 110% perfect.

Longer than most fleece jackets it provides greater overall warmth. It is somewhat tailored around the waist so it doesn't look like you are wearing a sack.

I like this jacket a lot but don't totally love it. For o e, I thought the purple color was darker than it actually is. It also runs a little small. I'm happy with my purchase for the price, though. The longer length is so nice for keeping my butt warm!

I have always had a couple of fleece jackets for walking or working out in my garden, but this is the first time I have purchased this longer style fleece. I love the longer styles because they cover more when it is cold. The hips and the buttocks are covered which keeps you warmer. The look of the jacket is nice too. I have many Columbia jackets, some Medium and some Large. I averaged out the reviews and how they felt about the sizing and I decided to order a Large. Fits perfect with a slight looseness which is what I was hoping for. The Medium I am sure would have fit too, but it would have been a "closer to the body" fit. It is a keeper!

Wonderful, cozy jacket. The only problem is the zipper is slightly defective and so it takes a lot of effort to adjust the zipper in its place before you zip it up. I do nevertheless wear it all the time, especially under a down vest.

I basically live in this jacket in the wintertime! It's the first thing I reach for on a chilly morning to wear around the house. Same for when I get home. Love that it is longer length, and slightly curvy in its fit so that it provides good coverage in the back without being tight. I sized up slightly to a large for my curvy figure; would normally wear a medium. It's loose and very comfortable.

Super cute- fits snug but not too tight

Love this hoodie. Very warm and comfy. Nice with the weather being warmer.
