Customer Reviews Columbia Kruser Ridge™ II Softshell

Runs small. Returned for the next size up for a comfortable fix. I usually wear a size large but need an XL in this

I am wearing this shell to work bc it's warm, soft, not too fitted so I can under-layer easily & be comfortable. Black looked too dark on me so I got the olive color instead. Love it! 2 zipped side pockets, yay! Definitely would like it to be hooded but it's not. Sleeves are too long, thus 4 stars. I am 158'' 145 pounds purchased Medium.

My wife was looking for something to block the elements and this was almost perfect. Almsot, because it didn't have a hoodie. And ones that did didn't come in her size. Overall she is happy with it. She wanted something light but warm. A waterproof jacket without being too thin or flimsy. This was and is a perfect option for that Chicago weather thats all over the place.

I am 5'5" and I bought a large and it fits me pretty well but the arm length is too long. I was a bit disappointed and that's why I only gave it 4 stars. I thought of returning it and getting a medium but I will just keep it and make it work somehow.

I got this for a friend as a gift. She is 5'5 and 125, and the size small was way too big. I had to get another in size XS extra small. Nice color and is a nice cool weather (but not cold) jacket.

I got this as a gift for a friend who always compliments my Kruser Ridge jacket. She likes it a lot but at 5'5 and 125 the size small was way too big for her. I had to reorder an extra small and even that is roomy on her.

I love this jacket. It is very comfortable and on the lightweight side. The olive green color is lovely and was a little less bright than expected but was not a bad thing. I love all the pockets and wear it often. I normally wear an 8 and ordered a medium based on the sizing. Fit is excellent. Sleeves run long but I just rolled them up a little and that works for me.

Nice jacket but when you order a size get a size bigger. All their jackets run small

Comfortable and durable. Sleeves are slightly long on me.

I ordered a large in order to accommodate a sweater underneath but it was still a little too loose. And then sleeves are way too long. The elastic at the cuffs is not tight enough and so it's hard to keep them from hanging below your wrist. And I have average length arms. The fit is definitely not form fitting and if you don't like tight fitting, this is the jacket for you. But, on the plus side, the material is a perfect softshell and looks really nice. This is a great jacket for cool-ish weather and combined with a sweater, would be good in cold and/or rainy or even snowy weather. Good quality all around.

I really love the jacket except for one detail. The zipper pull is sewn into the jacket on one of the side pockets. I don't want to tear the material to get it out, so I guess I will cut the pull. Shouldn't have to do that.

This feels like the shell jackets Columbia offered a few years back. It is not stiff at all but does a great job keeping me dry in light to medium rain. Bought them in Navy and Red. Wish the Red did not have gray on the inside collar; otherwise would have given Five stars.

My wife loves this jacket. The only complaint is she likes the sleeves on my jacket better. My sleeves have the option to use velcro to male the wrist opening bigger or smaller. This jacket has elastic only.

Awesome jacket at a great price. Does run a bit small though.

This product was just what I was looking for in terms of a light shell jacket that is quick to put on and run out the door. I did order a medium and a large in different colors knowing both would fit me, but not sure which would work better. I found the large to be a giant leap up in size from the medium. I wear both, but wish there wouldn't have been such a giant difference between the two sixes.

Very nice, good quality. Sleeves are a little too long

Wanted to get Nocturnal color is light purple. Not fitted as other jackets which works for layering.

Great jacket. It just ran a little large, especially sleeve length.

I had one of this jacket before and I used it for over six years whenever I went out for walking and hiking. They are water proof and light wight. They are sportive and stylish and not boxy .

Good jacket if you only need a little extra warmth. This wouldn't work well if it's really cold.

I got this jacket very cheap at an outlet store and I absolutely love it! It keeps me warm but not so much that I get sweaty, and a little rain rolls right off. It's great for hiking in the woods because the material doesn't get snagged by trees or bushes. I get compliments every time I wear it because it is cute as well.

I gave this 4 stars because I did need to go up a size. I am usually a women's medium. Other than that it is a great jacket. Perfect weight for spring and fall with a sleek design.

Really like the fit. Not too snug and not too big!

I usually wear medium. After reading other reviews I decided to purchase this jacket in the small size. I am glad I did. This is a lightweight jacket which is good for cool (windy) days in New England. The sleeves run a little long. Wish it had a band at the wrist to tighten it but not an issue. Would definitely recommend this product.
