Customer Reviews Columbia Plus Size Switchback™ Lined Long Jacket

I was hesitant to order this jacket -- and unsure which size to order when I did -- because so many reviewers found it to run much smaller than they expected. So here is how I found the sizing: I wear somewhere between an XL and a 1X in most tops, including jackets, depending on the fit. I'm 5'4" and have a 45" bust and very full upper arms. I often have to worry about fit around the arms and bust in jackets and tops. The 1X of this jacket is a great fit for me. Not too long for my height, not too small for my arms. I was able to comfortably zip it over the men's XL sweatshirt I was wearing when I took my dog for a walk in chilly, drizzly rain. I stayed warm and dry. The lining is very nice and soft. The velcro at the wrists and cord to adjust around the bottom both work well for me. Love the neutral option of the flint/chalk color.

This jacket is lightweight, warm and great for Alaskan Cruise. I love the color! Ordered 2XL, I'm 5'7" and 200. It's big enough to layer comfortably.

I like the unique color of this windbreaker and it is lightweight and comfortable. The only complaint for me is that the sizes run somewhat small, and I had to order a 2X. ? I normally wear an XL or 1X.

Nice long, lightweight. Nice light lining. Not sweaty. 4 stars cause I wish there was more arm room. I am limited on layering. I am wearing it today.

The lining makes this perfect for cooler rainy days.

Great rain jacket with an added extra layer of warmth.

Very beautiful, comfortable and light jacket. I'm happy with the purchase. I recommend. To be sure to choose the right size, you need to look at the size table and choose according to your volume. The jacket matches the description.

Great jacket. It is lightweight, fleece lined for a bit of warmth. Not bulky

Great Jacket ! Love Columbia perfect fit and just what I wanted

Love this jacket. It has a thin lining in it so it's good for cool days in the spring summer fall. It has the longer length which I like, and you can adjust the cuffs. And, more importantly, it looks great!

Lightweight yet warm jacket. Good length, quality made. Sizing is slightly smaller than another jacket in a similar style in the same size.

Comfortable, stylish rain jacket. Soft inner liner that keeps you warm on cool, rainy days. Outer waterproof shell keeps you dry. Longer length to keep your bottom covered and dry as well.

I was very pleased that the jacket fit me perfectly. It is the perfect weight for the mild winters we get here. It is waterproof with a light weight lining and hood. Nice material and comfortable to wear. I agree that the sleeves would probably not accommodate a thick jacket or sweater.

perfect!! Perfect weight, perfect length, just perfect!!!

Love jacket just too pricey but what I was looking for after I bought it found it cheaper

The recipient of this jacket was very pleased and loves the color.

I am a plus sized woman. 250 lb size 3X. After i ordered this jacket i thought i was going to return it because it wasnt a wind breaker but a lined inside. It came yesterday and no way am i going to return it. It is a beautiful color and it fits me perfect. I live in Northern Maine and i will be able to wear it 3 seasons out of the 4. Like i said it is mine and not going to return it.

Super comfortable, lightweight and great for Spring and rainy days. I love that it's a longer fit. I bought plus size because I am pregnant and it's nearly impossible to find maternity jackets and it fits great with room to grow.

Perfect fit. Great quality. Definitely lives up to the Columbia reputation.

I LOVE this jacket!!! This jacket is light weight but very warm with the inside lining. Perfect for snow, rain or just cold weather. I use it year round.

Always great quality and prices bought as a Christmas gift and the receiver loved it!

Loved the jacket, but runs small.

Love the color, very comfortable, fits true to size

Exactly as described. Fit was perfect and jacket was comfortable. Just what I wanted for a fall trip.

Excellent jacket, just what I needed for my upcoming trip.
