Customer Reviews Columbia Northern Reach™ Sherpa Full Zip

This is very warm, use it as layers for the barn. I like the length of the front and back, extra coverage on windy days.

This fleece sweater has been my go-to ever since I purchased it a few months back. It's lightweight but warm and has a flattering silhouette.

This is a great, warm jacket. This is a soft jacket and the inside has a silvery pattern that helps to keep the warmth in, but not at all stiff. I'm not sure how to best describe the inside. It makes the jacket an asset, it's not just a regular fleece jacket and well worth the price. I'm tall (5'11") so wanted something to cover my bum and have sleeves long enough to keep warm without being heavy. I wish it were a little longer but it is totally adequate. Shorter people won't have a problem. I have worn this jacket everyday this winter and only wear a more robust jacket when out hiking for hours.

Nice warm fleece. Love the Omni-heat. Tiny bit fuzzier than I expected. Great fit!

I have worn this jacket pretty much every day since buying it in the fall. The fit is super flattering - it goes in slightly at the waist and it has extra coverage in the front and back, which I really like. On top of that, it's surprisingly warm. I'm of an average build and do get cold when the temps drop, but I can wear this jacket with a long sleeve shirt underneath on a 32 F or warmer winter day and be perfectly comfortable.

I hunted for weeks for the perfect fleece and this is definitely it! Fits true to size. Extremely comfortable and warm. Love my color combo - the nocturnal with the pop of red. I live in New England and this will be my go-to the rest of the Fall and Winter.

Oh my gosh I love my jacket it the best thing I have ever worn it feels so good I have told all my friends/family they needs to get them one it finally got cold in the south for me to wear it had on short sleeve shirts and that jacket

I love it and I highly recommend this item ! Warm and just perfect for cold weather !

perfect fit, very warm without being bulky, lightweight

This sherpa fleece color is gorgeous and warm. I love the longer rounded front and back length. It runs just a smidge big for a large but doesn't need to be exchanged.

Very warm and cozy! True to size and i like that it is a little longer. Wore this with a sweatshirt underneath in single digits and was very comfortable

Quality is ok, definitely runs small, I wear an XL so I can have some room to move, I was able to zip it but there was no extra room to wear a sweater under it.

I love the dark green color. This is a light weight. I'm so happy with the longer length because I have a long torso and tops usually run short for me. My only complaint is that the oni heat feels slightly scratchy if wearing with a short sleeve shirt. I would buy again.

I feel like Columbia runs small in general. I'm an XL in clothing, usually from old navy. I can't even fit into my XL Columbia parka from last year so I ordered this fleece as a cheaper, easy to throw on alternative. But even in an XXL it's a bit snug on me, tight in the hips and not as long as I would've hoped. I run hot. I never like to wear my winter coat in the car or in the stores. So this is a good piece for me because it's not too hot. It does have the Omni heat type material on the inside. So I think it'll serve it's purpose - like a quick 1 minute walk from my car to work. Or even to wear inside on a chilly day. I got the Elk color which matches my Columbia boots and slippers. It's that perfect teddy bear caramel color. I'll also add I think some of the details cheapen it, like the fabric where the zipper meets being a contrasting color and the little pulls on the zippers themselves. It also makes it a lot more casual looking than if they had just done all matching details.

Love the fit and warmth of this jacket. Longer in the body, great for layering under another jacket.

I like the fabric, the silver lining slides easily over other apparel and the sherpa fleece is not bulky. The torso length is great, covers up what should be covered! The sleeves, however, are waaaaaaay too long on me. I am hoping I can figure out how to shorten them correctly. The nice, big pockets are a plus, too. I got the blue color and like it very much.

A very warm and sturdy jacket. Light enough to wear in the house in the winter, which is what I bought it for.

I think this runs a bit large, and it's not the super thick plush Sherpa that I've been looking for, but I like it. The fabric feels a bit more nylonish... not as soft and fuzzy as most other fleeces. It's great if you like something with a longer length, though I feel like it's a bit wide around the hips (these days I'm not). It's good to have something that's a different shape than the usual fleeces (my daily winter uniform). I like it, I'm wearing it, but I wish I'd bought the next size down.... next time!

This fleece is comfy, moderately warm, casual. Runs large; a small fits me 5'7 120 lb

Thin, warms up quickly. Not fuzzy and comfy. Arms are a bit snug.

I like it...but thought it would be a softer fleece. Nice style...even the silver lining!

It is not as thick and plush as the picture makes it look. Runs a little on the larger side but very nice looking jacket.

This jacket fits loose. Pockets are big & almost baggy. The zipper has a large gray bias tape on one side. Not an attractive look.

It's soft and warm, and I like the style. Unfortunately the first thing I noticed about it after opening the package was the 6 inch long thread that was loose in the middle of the zipper. I expect better from Columbia.

It's soft and cozy, but bulges at my stomach. I'm 5'3", 115lbs, I am average proportions, but the front is just too long to be flattering on me.
