Customer Reviews Columbia Lay D Down™ II Jacket

Love, love, love this jacket! I purchased the black satin which has a bit of a sheen that I like as it dresses it up just a bit. Super warm and comfy cozy. I had considered purchasing one of those VERY pricey parkas, you know the one’s ;), and this beats all of those hands down. The fit is trim but not tight and the satin w the touch of fur, removable fur and/or hood, is perfect! Note my measurements are 5’2” 106lbs 36D with broad shoulders/muscular build. I purchased the XS and it fits very comfortably. It’s classic and beautiful :)

I have owned Columbia ski jackets in the past. After trying other brands I have come back to Columbia, for performance and function. Good quality.

My daughter wanted a winter coat that was warm, stylish and not too bulky to use at college. Although she has not had a chance to wear it aside from trying it on, it seems to be all those things. It appears to be very well made and the zippers worked well when trying it in. She normally is a small, but got a medium so that she could layer with sweaters and it's perfect. She is about 5'5" and 125lbs.

Love it, this coat fits perfect is true to size, i wear an xl, and is very comfy, i love that is breathable, and very warm for winter, water proof, and protects my whole head, looks great on my figure also which i consider stylish.

I just bought this coat because it was on sale. I love it!!! I can't wait to wear it this winter. It feels like it will be very warm and functional. I ordered a large and it is a little fitted, but I believe it'll be ok. I usually wear a medium in Columbia shirts, but in order to cover heavy sweatshirts the larger size is necessary.

It is very good gift

The coat is exactly what I had hoped for. I looked at many coats in this color and I'm so glad I found this one. Its extremely warm with the omni-heat interior heating tech (we've had more sub zero wind chills lately so I wear this for the long dog walks. The hand extensions that fit around your thumb help keep out the snow/cold and the detachable hood with the faux fur really helps keep the wind and cold air off my face. A great purchase!

I recently purchased this jacket for a ski trip. Temps were in the 30's. I am 5'1 and 115 lbs. The small fit perfectly. I had a Smartwool base layer and a vest under the jacket. I could have done without the vest...the jacket is that warm!

I ordered this jacket about a week before the record breaking cold hit my region. And THANK GOD it came just in time! This jacket saved my butt (literally from freezing off). The temperatures are in the negatives and I am staying nice and warm. The hood is great. The skirt is great. This is just an overall GREAT COAT! You will not regret this purchase.

Definitely held up to the frigid freeze we had this week!

This coat was worth the money. I'm usually skeptical about spending a lot of money on coats because they're usually all the same. I'm never cold wearing with coat at all! The cold winter paired with my anemia, usually cause a lot of trouble for me, but this coat keeps me feeling snuggly and toasty.

Finally, a jacket that keeps me warm and looks good. I am extremely happy with this jacket - well made and very warm.

Great sheen on this fabric and yet it doesn't have that annoying "swish" sound that makes you feel wrapped in cellophane. Soft bends at shoulder and elbow - no stiffness. Looks and feels great and as always Columbia quality never disappoints.

I fell in love with this coat as soon as I saw it online and my love for it only grew when I received it through mail. It is a beautiful dark red matte color. The style is incredibly flattering and not too poofy or thin. If you are in between sizes, get the smaller size for a slim fit. This has been warm in negative degree weather and snowing. I do sweat a lot when moving, so the pit vents have been a life saver. Only slight disappointment was the faux fur hood lining. It's a bit cheap looking and when zipping the coat all the way up, it does not look flattering around your face. Not a deal breaker as you can unzip the fur lining. Overall great coat!

Love Love Love this jacket. I am from Arizona and not used to the cold. Wore this jacket in NY over Christmas and it was perfect...just the right warmth without making me sweat. Also wore it skiing in Connecticut and not only did it keep me warm it was also comfortable to ski in. I am about 5'8" and 140 lb. Usually wear a medium but I ordered a large in order to be able to wear sweaters or sweatshirts underneath. Definitely a great purchase for the money!!

Love everything about this coat It's gorgeous and warm and very functional for winter Stylish and true to size. Columbia makes the best winter coats will recommend to everyone

Love this coat, nice and warm with out bulk and so cute. I am 5'9" and got a med and it fits perfect. If you plan to wear thick sweatshirts often with it I'd size up. Really like the thumb hole feature and the detachable hood so the fur won't get matted in the wash.

Got this jacket for a ski trip next month but it has come in so handy with our recent cold weather. It is warm, soft and so comfortable!!! I love this jacket!

The jacket looks and fits fantastic, it's amazingly warm and very cosy (I want to sleep in it!). Plus, I love it that it's waterproof and has great accessories such as inbuilt gloves, a powder skirt, a removable hood. I can highly recommend it.

This jacket was made for the mountains. It was perfect for snow skiing! Great purchase and fit true to size.

I work outside all day and am one of those people that is cold all the time. This is one of the best coats I've ever had. I actually got on the site to order a second one and unfortunately, it seems to be out of stock. I am super disappointed! I love everything about this coat. We've had super cold below normal temps (20's, teens, and single digits) and I actually have gotten a little too warm when I am shoveling in it. I love it!

I purchased and returned two different coats from a local outfitter before buying this coat. I live in Alaska and wear it mostly in and out of stores and occasionally while playing or shoveling snow with my kids. I wore it at 8 degrees with only a thin waffle knit base layer and it was perfect while I was playing and being moderately active. Once I started shoveling, I worked up a sweat and used the armpit zippers to cool off. I purchased the Nori(green) and I absolutely love the color. The style and fit is very attractive, especially for a heavy-duty winter coat. I am 5'7" and 135 pounds, and I purchased a medium. I am a small in normal tops, but I tried on the small in store and with this, as with other outerwear I own, a small is too tight in the shoulders and would have left no room for layering. I was able to get this on sale and used a coupon from joining the rewards program, and I'm so pleased to have a beautiful, warm coat at half the price of the other coats that I had been looking at. If you live anywhere with a decent winter, you need this!

I love it ! Very warm

I love this jacket! It's stylish and functional. I really like the sleeves withing the sleeves that have the thumb holes. And I appreciate this pockets inside, that's sometimes hard to find in women's jackets. I highly recommend!
