Customer Reviews Columbia Big & Tall Ascender™ Softshell Jacket

GOOD QUALITY! Runs a tad large but still fits. Works best in layers at colder temperatures (35f). Jacket is stylish and not too bulky. Material also repels water as advertised. Useful pockets and red zippers pop against grey color of jacket. Good job Colombia.

This coat fits perfectly. The sleeves are long enough! and the jacket itself is long enough to go below waist to prevent the wind from getting in.

We used this jacket as an incentive award for our construction employees that reached 2,000 days with No Lost-Time Accidents. It was very well received. We did have the jackets embroidered with our company logo and our safety logo on the sleeves.

Excellent product! It holds up really well and our EMT's love them.

Great quality. Have always had good luck with Columbia. Great deal on the website. Free shipping and the jacket does not fall short. It is quality, comfortable.

I've been wearing this jacket on a daily basis, and love it. It's warm, without being overly hot, and stands up very well in windy conditions. I'm 6'4 and a solid 290lbs, and usually wear 3xl jackets. Based on the other reviews I ordered a 4xl, and it fits perfectly. Excellent jacket so far

Have always used and trusted Columbia products. I have softshell jackets that have lasted a long time. Now, finally, a size that fits my hulking 6'5' 16 yr old son. The tall size XL is perfect. It's great he doesn't have to wear a too big 2XL that's too short on his torso. Arm sleeves perfect too. Very pleased. Bought 2. He loves the black and navy colors.

Love this product, would order again. Glad that I could find XL Tall in this product. Very nice looking jacket.

My son is very tall. He is still in high school and needed a new jacket for school. This jacket he absolutely loves. It fits him great. He is 6'2 and still growing. I am glad that you carry tall. Thank you for making my Christmas shopping easier.

I had been looking in stores for a nice looking casual jacket in an XXXL Tall size for my 6'3" son. Nearly impossible to find until I saw this one on your website. I ordered it and it arrived sooner than expected. A great price to boot! It fit perfectly and he loves it. I will certainly be a repeat customer. Thank you.

My Husband is 6' 4" and has long arms 39", Columbia is the only place I can find clothes that will fit him. This jacket is no exception and he loves the light weight material.

Bought for my husband and he really likes. He normally don't wear a jacket because don't like the bulk. He wears it now whenever he leaves so I know he likes it. Sharp looking jacket

I just got my second one of these softshell jackets in a different color. I think the fit and quality of it are fantastic. The only thing I wish is for Columbia to make it in a tall size vest.

I've been beating on this jacket for the past month and to say the least, i'm impressed. It fits well, and looks brand new after weeks of using it as an outer layer while hunting, busting through willows, cattails, and giant ragweed chasing pheasant. spent last week in single digit temps and 20mph winds. This jacket performed flawlessly with just a wicking layer and thick cotton mock turtleneck underneath. Tall size fits perfectly, i'm 6'4".

I love that Columbia offers tall sizes, and their products are of top quality. This jacket is no exception. It is very warm for the size and surprisingly windproof as well. The two main pockets are also very spacious (the top of each is equal to the seam that run across the front, and the bottom is just above the bottom of the jacket). The material seems very durable as well. I will note that the color of the Graphite style seems just slightly lighter in color in person than the picture shows. Not at all a problem, just something to know.

Great product. I love that these come in a tall size. Nice jacket alone for cooler weather or under a shell.

Nice every day jacket. Ordered the XLT for the extra length and the fit is great. Keeps warm but not too bulky.

WARM KEEPS YOU DRY great for skiing and hiking etc

Very comfortable and warm. 3xt fits as expected. Def will be one of my main jackets this winter.

Big and tall fits great. Fast shipping and seems like good quality.

Fit is good and comfortably warm.buying process was easy and fast.

Great jacket! The only thing i wish was different was the cuffs on the sleeve. Don't care for the velcro cuffs and wish they were elastic. Just a personal preference but i don't like having to undo the cuffs every time i take it off. The other option is to leave them a little on the loose side all the time but then drafts go up the sleeves. Maybe i just have big hands lol

Good quality and pricing. Would like inside pockets,the outside zipper pocket is a bonus. Learned most items run small and buy up one size, works for My needs.

I am a fan of the clothing and being 6'2" I love the fitting of Tall sizes usually. This is the second jacket I have ordered XLT which is super loose. All of my wardrobe has XL which I wear but this jacket runs bigger. I waited for Black Friday to get an offer but unfortunately will end up paying them $6 for shipping it back. The quality is so so good which makes me even more sad. Columbia needs to fix its returns. Please provide free returns or at least for online orders accept them in your stores.

Love the overall feel and look, however I would like to have an inside pocket. The zippered pockets are nice if I have something to secure that I do not want to fall out, but inside pockets on a man's coat is really needed. The coat is surprisingly warm, and cinch strap really allows me to tighten up the baggy feel. I wear a 2X shirt, and was looking for coat that gives some room to dress in layers (sweater or bulky shirt), so the 3x fit the bill. It was a little pricey, but I was in a hurry to get before leaving for vacation, and this was a name brand that I felt would be more dependable.
