Customer Reviews Columbia Flash Forward Lined Windbreaker

This jacket is fantastic for those cooler spring days.

I put this on when it was 37 degrees and windy outside, just to run a quick errand. I was impressed when I didn't feel the chilly air on my arms & torso. This lined jacket definitely stands up to it's description.

I love the Columbia line. I never met a Columbia coat or jacket I didn't like.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a lined anorak or windbreaker to wear during the cooler Phoenix weather. This jacket is perfect for mornings that hover between 40F and 65F when I walk my dog. Plus, when it rains, it helps keep me dry. The lining is warm and fuzzy, plus I love the hood. Just perfect for Phoenix fall through spring (and spring through fall for other parts of the country).

This jacket is just what I was looking for. I needed something lighter weight than fleece, but a coat that would still keep me warm and protected from wind. Perfect for fall, spring, and mild winter days. It's well made, and the fabric is a good quality.

Great jacket, the inside fleece lining is thicker than I expected, which was a plus. Love the hood and zippered pockets

Columbia will never disappoint..love their quality products This jacket works very well in many types of weather

I love how soft it is. I'm going to Korea so I splurged on Columbia. Happy with this buy.

I really love this jacket! I have always wanted a Columbia jacket and I was finally able to purchase one and I'm glad I did. It fits just right and is very comfortable. I am cold frequently and it's not to bulky to wear just around work or around the house.

Nice for spring. light weight and colorful

The fleece lining makes this jacket perfect for those in between times, not too warm but warm enough! I live in Arizona and it's great for the cold winter mornings. Plus it stops the wind and is water resistant too. The jacket is roomy enough to layer, if needed, but not too big. I love this jacket, I have 2, the black and blue. I highly recommend this jacket. It's perfect.

I'm in nursing school and for spring break, my boyfriend is taking me hiking/camping in Colorado. Realizing I have no cold gear, I went straight to Columbia. And now I keep buying more things. And I had no idea how much I needed this until it came in the mail. The fleece lining is incredibly cozy and felt like a hug. The outer fabric is smooth and doesn't sound like you're walking in a plastic bag. Of course, it matches the Women's Bubaboo Interchange Glove, Trail Shaker Head Ring, Women's Basin Trail Fleece Full Zip Top, and Women's Peak to Park Mid Insulated Jacket that I absolutely HAD to have. I'm a loyal fan now.

This is my third one of these windbreakers that I have purchased. They are a great in between jacket, when it's too cold for a winter coat, but still chilly enough to need a jacket with some warmth. I love that they also have a water repellant shell. As far as sizing goes, I wear a clothing size 14 or large, and the large in these jackets fit me well. If you are planning on wearing a heavy sweater, or sweatshirt underneath, you may want to go one size up.

This is a great jacket for me living in Oregon. It is lined inside, even along the arms, but not too thick. It looks nice, even if I am wearing just a t-shirt underneath or a pullover jacket without making me look bulky. I am a size Medium in all my other Columbia clothing (fleece jacket and vest) and this fits perfect as a Medium as well. I am 5'2", and the Medium allows enough room inside to layer, and stops just below my hips.

This jacket is very light weight but keeps you warm. I love the color combination and it is my go to jacket when it is just a little chilly outside.

Great windbreakerlining keeps me toasty while outside keeps the wind out. The black cherry/wild Iris color is delicious. Normally wear a medium in the unlined version of this windbreaker. I wanted more space since wearing it in colder climate and would have more layers underneath, so I ordered a size up. Perfect fit in a large. 5'7"/140#/36D

I love this jacket, its comfortable, stylish and makes me look good!

Good product. Nice to wear it. True size.

This is the perfect jacket to wear when it's cool outside. The lining is light, soft and warm.

I live on a mountainside and it gets pretty breezy, I needed something for these in-between Fall days where its too cold for a tshirt but too warm for a coat. This is perfect for that. I like windbreakers but I hate that feeling of cold slick material on my arms if I'm wearing short sleeves, which I do often around the house. This is a nice jacket for stepping outside on a cool day. Not too hot, not too cold. And I get what the others are saying about the lining coming through the end of the sleeve when you first put it on but honestly that wasn't a dealbreaker for me. You just push it back in if it bothers you, or go about your business and move around a bit and goes back in itself. Its worth it for that snuggly warm lining as opposed to the jarring coldness of unlined sleeves in my opinion.

This is a great lightweight layer which rolls up small and fits well into a pack. The liner is really soft and it is a comfy fit. I keep one stashed in my car in case it is chilly or windy when I arrive at my destination. Good quality material.

Sweater feels comfortable and definitely stylish

I absolutely love Columbia products, as I have never had an issue with the sizing and quality. This windbreaker isn't any different. True to size and very functional.

Although I haven't had the opportunity to wear the jacket yet (still summer in Arizona), I can hardly wait! I do a lot of hiking through terrain that goes from desert to mountain top and this windbreaker has exactly the features I've been looking for: lightweight but with a soft lining throughout, hood, zipper pockets, nice quality material that doesn't "swish" when I walk/move, and a unique color and classy design that doesn't look like a work jacket. It will be easy to pack along & ready to wear when windy or chilly. I am 5'5" and weigh 140. I tried Medium which fit pretty well but purchased Large for extra room since I like to dress in layers. Can't wait for my hiking friends to see this! I highly recommend Columbia's Flash Forward Lined Windbreaker!

I love this jacket! Very comfortable, warm, and attractive.
