Customer Reviews Columbia Fast Trek™ II Jacket

This jacket has been returned. Too small for me. I also felt as in years past this one was not as soft or "fluffy". I found the material to be a bit on the rough side.

More room than I thought I would have and longer than I thought it would be, but I do have a shorter torso. Very comfortable.

I like it! If you're looking for something to keep you warm but not too hot get this

This was a gift. It fits true to size. She originally wanted dark purple but it was no longer available and this color worked well with her skin tone.

Love this fleece , keep me really warm in this weather

This fleece was intended to be my daily go-to. The texture is medium-soft. I'm 5'11", 28" waist, 32D, long limbs: The medium fit is excellently fitted around my waist, a little snug in the shoulders, and a little short in sleeve-length (as with most top articles for me). The large would've been too roomy.

I wear this fleece jacket almost everyday in the fall and winter. I size up so I can wear a long sleeve t-shirt underneath without it feeling tight. I love that this fleece doesn't have elastic at the wrist and has a wider sleeve opening. My carpal tunnel braces fit within the sleeve which is a tough feature to find!

This is very nice warm jacket. Unfortunately it runs small and I could not comfortably even zip it so I had to return it. The color was a nice soft gray, better than the photo.

A really nice jacket with a nice shape and feel. It does run small. Needed to size up 1 size up.

I just bought this jacket to replace the same model that I've owned for 10 years. The zipper on the first coat finally gave out. This coat has a few different features than the firsta cord to cinch the bottom ( doubt that I will ever use), the pockets have a much thinner fabric lining and pocket zippers seem a little flimsier than the first coat. All that said, I think this is a pretty good coat, especially for the price. I wear it daily in the winter and take it on plenty of hikes and ski adventures. It's a good weight and it comes in my favorite color (plum).

Jacket fits close to the body, much more than the Benton Springs model in the same size (M). I like the shape though and purchased it for that reason.

This is a great jacket except it runs very small/tight. The fleece feels like quality fleece and the logo is embroidered on the front (instead of a sewn on tag), which makes it look nice. I am returning this because it's just too tight for me -- I wear a size 6, 34D chest, and the Medium was too tight across the chest and back especially but also too snug overall. I wear a Medium in other Columbia jackets. I would try the next size up but it's sold out :(

Nice quality. Very warm. Runs small. Order next size up.

I have 6 of this style, my favorite, in different colors from this and past years. This large fits a bit tighter and shorter than my other large ones, but I'll deal with it. There were several places where threads were coming out which I'd never seen before with my other colors. Overall, I recommend the style but fit is apparently not consistent.

Beautiful color and design BUT... Top of jacket is cut to accurate for size chart but through hips... WAY too snug and NOT to chart sizes. Unfortunately, had to return. Also, had a bum zipper. If I size up, top will be too big. < SIGH> For reference: 5'7", 136lbs, 36C, 39" hip, normal size 8... purchased Medium.

I love this jacket especially the zip pocket on the sleeve. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is because it runs a bit small. I have purchased other Columbia fleece jackets in size small and they fit a just right and a sweater can be worn underneath. This one is very snug.. no room for sweater. I wish there was better consistency in sizes between the styles. I would size up on this one.

This fleece jacket that will be nice on our Alaska cruise. First one was returned because it was too small.

This style is very fitted. Not gteat for layering unless you go up 1 size from what you would usually wear.

Have had 3 of these over the years. Love the style and fit but the color choices are limited and not very attractive. Don't understand why a best seller jacket like this doesn't offer some of the wonderful deep or bright colors other manufacturers have. Get so tired of ordering black.

Pleasantly soft and very warm, just what I was looking for. Now if I can keep my cat from chewing the zippers. ...

I was hoping from the description that it would be a touch thinner, but it is still very nice. I like the extra pocket on the arm. I feel the size of the XL is a little snug, but the arms are really long.

From my first fleece jacket to my current fleece jacket, it has always been a Columbia. I love the feel and the look of this jacket. The only thing I wish is they would come out with more colors. I would recommend this jacket to all my friends and family.

I bought this jacket to use as a layer for travel and it is perfect for that. It is a lighter weight than my other Columbia jacket with a fit more like a sweater than a coat.It also blocks the wind better than my other jacket. My only critique is the length of the sleeves. I am over 60 with a larger waist so I bought the XL which fits my body shape perfectly but the sleeves are way too long. I can sew so l may take the sleeves up or fold them up, but keep that in mind.

The material is good, well made. It is little tight, but keep you warm when it is a little snug. I am 5'2, so medium gives the right length, but I am little heavy so it is snug.

The fit was good, love the heavier fleece. The elastic around the hem broke after washing once.
