Perfect fit; got plus 2X size (i a m 255lbs and 5'11"). Great quality for a light windbreaker/raincoat znd the purple color is amazing.

It's a well made light weight/unlined rain jacket. I was looking for a packable rain jacket for warm days that have some rain or winds. My only "not 100% satisfied" is that the "Red Orchid" is less red than I expected and more dark pink. I usually order 1X in shirts and 2X in jackets if I want to layer (I want to layer), but based on reviews of it being small, I ordered a 3X. In WA that will be great for lots of layers, on tropical travels over t-shirts- it will be very big! I'm a 42B, 18-20 in most clothes (sometimes a 22 pant depending on brand). In pictures I compared it to my son's Columbia red rain coat and I'm wearing a fleece hoodie and t-shirt under the jacket.

Fabric and style is on point. If you are more busty, the top part won’t close all the way. I feel the 3xl felt like a 2xl when it came to the front zip portion. atms, shoulders were a 3xl fit but the front part was not. had to return.

I bought a different Columbia jacket a couple years ago and sized up based in reviews. It's too big! Ordered my normal size (2X) and it fits perfectly. Love the color and how small it folds up.

I ordered a 1X and am 220 lbs for reference. This is a great jacket, fit well, and is completely waterproof. Would not recommend if you are trying to stay warm as well, as it is lightweight. I believe there is a Sherpa lined version of this jacket.

I was able to finally try this out on a jog when it started storming. Kept me completely dry, I loved it. I did get a little humid inside it, but that is perfectly fine. It served its purpose. I do wish the hood was a tad bit deeper as I like to keep my hair up in a bun while walking/jogging and it's not deep enough for that. I had to duck under an awning, take down my hair and put the jacket back on to be able to tuck in my long hair (thigh-length). But besides that I love it.

Even though this is a plus size it is tight. I would not buy again.

I wanted to find a rain coat that was lightweight for warmer weather but that could also be layered over sweaters when traveling in cooler months. I'm particularly happy with the arm length. I have long arms, and it's tough to find sleeves that are long enough. No problem here.

This waterproof shell is perfect for spring or summer weather. It's also true to size. I chose the Fushia color and its vibrant and cheery.

Light weight rain jacket perfect to throw on as your top layer on a rainy day. The hood tucks away and is easily accessible.
