Customer Reviews Columbia Benton Springs™ II Long Hoodie

I wanted something to wear to/from exercise class. I like this because it is longer and provides good coverage if I want to run errands, etc. afterwards. I also like that it has a hood. It does run a little bulky in the front I think - not form fitting. I am 5'6" and 123 pounds and wear a Small in all Columbia coat products normally and that's the size I bought for this style. Maybe an XS might have been better, but I didn't want to sacrifice arm length. Overall, jacket is very warm and cozy and I am pleased with my purchase.

Love the longer length that covers the tush. I like my backside covered when I wear leggings or yoga pants, it just feels better as well as warmer. Great jacket for hiking, running errands or walking the dog on a cool day. The sleeves are long on me, but I'm 5'3" and all outerwear sleeves run long on me unless I can find petite sizes. I also like the hood and how the collar can zip up higher to your chin. The thickness and the color of the fleece is nice - navy, but not too dark. It's shaped well for a feminine fit.

For the price I think it's great for fall, spring and a mild winter day. I wore this outside when it was -5 out and felt pretty warm. Soft and cozy, covers my butt and I'm 5'8. I like the big hood. But it's not snug to keep the wind from coming in around the neck. Overall happy with this purchase.

I am 5 foot height and 130lbs, bought Medium size. It feels a little snug. I would have bought the Large size if I knew, but I'll keep this one since it would be too much trouble returning it. I love the length that it covers my behind! Love that it zips extra high, can cover my mouth in the cold weather.

I am enjoying my jacket. It is a nice fit and figure flattering. It hangs low enough to wear with long shirts, sweaters. I would have given it a five star if the sleeves had a easy slide in liner .

It is light weight yet very warm! U live it for everyday use, not too bulky, it fits just right. The length is perfect, about mid thigh. Makes it look dressy casual.

Love the longer length, and hood. Color is beautiful. Runs a little small. Not for cold, windy days. But, without the wind, it's perfect.

This jacket is a really good quality, I think I accidentally bought the wrong size so I have it to my daughter and she loves it. She wears it everyday, we live upstate ny and it gets pretty cold here but she stay pretty toasty with a sweater under.

Nice jacket. It runs a little small. I'm a large and it fits exact, I bought another one which was XL and I prefer that fit. I wear them both together, one under the other. This jacket is good for cooler weather, but I'm not sure if it will hold out for real winter. It will be great as an inner jacket for an outer one. I bought this jacket mainly for its length. It is great because it covers your rear.

I purchased this for my mother using the size her other Columbia items are but a bit disappointed that this runs a tad smaller than other items

Product is Columbia quality, well designed and built. Wish I would have been able to find it in stores first. It isn't as warm as I thought it would be.

I really like this jacket. It's long and keeps your bum covered and wind out. It's fitted so it "seems" smaller than it is. Also seems slightly snug in the shoulders. But I like it a lot. I'm not used to a fitted jacket that's likely the issue I'm having. If you like the original Benton Springs, you'll like it. Just remember it's fitted.

Very nice fleece jacket. The fit is flattering. I generally wear a ladies medium in clothes, so I ordered a Large to allow for layering. Warm enough for cool fall in the south. The pockets zip, which is great. The only thing I'm not wild about with this jacket is the double zipper. There are two zipper pulls at the bottom, one to zip up, and one to unzip up. It's hard to get the zipper threaded into both to zip the jacket up.

The hoodie has a soft fabric and fits true to size. Purchased it for my wife for the fall season. Can be easily used as part of layers under heavy jackets/coats. Very comfortable and keeps you warm. Purple color looks nice.

I really like this jacket. It's better than most, more fitted and stylish. My one complaint it that it is tight in the shoulder area. The overall jacket fits great, except for the shoulder area. A jacket from an outdoor/athletic focused company should accommodate an athletic build. 5'8" 120lbs. A small would be perfect, and is, except for the too tight shoulders.

this jacket is warm, soft and I love the longer length, covers the rear end!

This jacket is Very soft and love the length. Absolutely recommend this hoodie. Little snug around the mid drift though

I love the quality of the work and the material of this hoodie. It feels so warm and cozy! And with the longer length, it really keeps me warm!

It seems I'm always running errands in my yoga clothes before or after class. As the weather grew colder I didn't want to wear a bulky jacket, I just needed to add a fleece layer that was a longer length than the other choices I already had in my closet to kind of "dress up" that gym look. Searching the internet for long fleece hoodies---this one showed up in all my searches. The charcoal gray color is perfect for running around after class without looking like that's where I've been. It zips up to cover your neck area and keep you cozy warm without having to throw on a neck scarf. The price point was a good match for what I was after. It's not a performance outer layer I would take to hike the trails in Patagonia, but for daily running around on a chilly day---I love adding this comfy, cozy layer!

Bought this coat for my wife she loves it. She compared it t o her under armour coat just as warm and covers her back side

This is the second time I've purchased this coat bc I like it's functionality so well. I would have liked to have it in white again, but couldn't find available. (So If you do have it in white I'd like it.) I did run into one snag. There is a hole (the stitching wasn't right) just under the right arm pit. I can send you a picture. Would like help with this.

I was looking for a jacket long enough to cover my posterior when wearing tights. This does!

I love a hooded jacket. And I am loving this jacket even though it runs a little small. I would very much recommend this product.

Armholes are a bit narrow. Wider armholes will accommodate layers better.

Great quality, it fit as I expected
