Customer Reviews Columbia Big & Tall Steens Mountain™ Vest

I am disappointed that Columbia doesn't make more 3XLT and 4XLT products. I am disappointed in DXL that they are not carrying more inventory of Cutter and Buck products and I heard they are dropping the St. Hillaire line or did St. Hillaire drop DXL-=---I used to do a lot of business with Rochester's in Dallas, TX (direct and on-line)---since DXL acquisition, their inventory of products I like has diminished.

I'm 6'1" 275 lbs the 3xt vest fit true to size. This is a good light weight vest that works well when used as a mid layer. The quality is good and it's easy to fold up and carry in a backpack. Overall a good to excellent product.

Nice vest, but runs a little small.

Great for cool mornings

Riding in cool weather

Great fit and comfort. Really worked for what I wanted it for.

Pleased with purchase. Two small items kept it at a 4 rating for me. The color is not a true black. It has a bit of a greenish tint to it. Second it would be perfect if it had a elastic waist/drawstring at the bottom. It would make it fit a bit better and keep out a bit more of the cold air.

Runs short in length and also tight if worn zipped. Did not keep (gave it away).

I am a disappointed in this vest. The actual color is an ugly drab dark grey not the black that was advertised. And the fabric is so thin, it barely gives any insulation against the cold. I wasn't expecting a thick, outdoor type fabric but this fabric is practically useless. Also, the arm holes are ridiculously large and gape.

The fit is good. I'm 6'5" 200lbs. The fabric is just too light though and the color is lighter than I thought. It's an strange shade of purple.

I bought this thinking their would be some reddish tone (burgundy, crimson) in it but it's just plain brown with no red at all so back it goes. Misleading but otherwise great vest.

I was looking forward to get this vest but when I tried it on it was to small. The fleece itself is not soft.

I bought the 3X. It was too tight at the waist. Traded it in for a 4X. Fit better around the waist, but now it is a little too big in the chest/shoulder area.

Ordered a black one and what I got is not black. It's dark gray. This is the 2nd one I've had and I use it to match up with my uniform. The first one I had was blackety black. I expected the same with this one. It's definitely NOT black. I'll use it, but I'm super-disappointed in the color. Other than that, it's a great item, it's warm when it needs to be, has a ton of pocket space, and it's not too hot when it's warm outside. It would be 5 stars if the color was true.

I'm a 2X. Everything I own is 2X. I am returning this vest and ordering a 3X. I really can't review the product except for sizing. I took it out of the package, put it on and am ordering a 3X.

I have made 3 online purchases from Columbia, and I can not figure out their sizing. This product I bought in a 4xt. Size wise it was a hair small, and length wise it was short. I bought another 4xt (different product) from them and it fit length wise like a dress. When I wanted a 5x it fit huge size wise but the speeves and length were shortest I've tried. Their quality is fine just the sizing is a real mixed bag.

three vest - 4x all fit completely different, one is perfect, one is too tight, one is way to big. Will not order on line again.

Extemely small. Need two sizes larger.

Like everything about it EXCEPT that it doesn't have a $1 drawstring hem. It's going to be stretched out at the bottom and look like an old flared skirt within a month. Avoid.

These vests look cheap when compared to past versions. Columbia did away with the seam through the mid section and also eliminated the tab on the zipper. They look very plain & cheap. I would've probably kept them anyway but I ordered the wrong size. The tall sizes are very tall! Know this....if you need to return something you will pay the return shipping!! This surprised me and for this reason I will never order anything from Columbia again!

Very dissapointed. The material was thin and the design was terrible. It was not up to their usual high quality I'm used to. I returned it.

Warm and comfortable, but what good is it if you cannot zipper it closed. I purchased 3 of these hoping it was just a fluke, but the zipper has fallen apart on each of them. I should have known better when it happened on the first vest, but I thought it was a fluke. I work way too hard for my money to throw it away on a product of such poor quality. I expected more from Columbia. I will not be buying another.

i've purchase a lot of 2x & 3x clothing from Columbia. This vest fits more like a 1.5x and it should be said, i bought the 3x size. I had to check the tag several times because i couldnt belive how tight it was. This one gets returned.

Vest was ordered sixteen days ago, allegedly shipped eleven days ago, but is yet to arrive. Tracking status provides no indication when vest will arrive.

I never got my item. After over a week of trying, I finally got ahold of someone in person. They said it could take up to two weeks to get my money back
