Customer Reviews Columbia Joy Peak™ Jacket

Great fit, light weight and very warm. Bought for granddaughter who hates to wear a coat, but does not go out without this one.

I'm 5'5" 130lbs. and ordered the M. It fits just like I wanted it to - roomy enough to wear a sweater underneath but not too bulky to wear under a raincoat. It keeps me very warm on early morning dog walks when temps are near or below freezing. The maroon color is great - I love it and get lots of compliments.

I purchased this jacket mainly to wear when I walk on cold days. It is very warm and comfortable without being bulky or restrictive, and is pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I like that the pockets have zippers, but wish it also had at least one inside pocket. It fits perfectly, and is snug enough so that cold air can't get in, but not tight. (I am 5'6" and weigh 150 lbs and ordered size large.) I didn't know that it had thumb holes, which I do not care for, but they are not on the main sleeve and can be tucked in and are not noticeable. All in all, this is a very comfortable and well made jacket.

Love how light it feels. I chose to ignore recommendations to size up. Tried it on with a Tshirt and hoodie underneath and fits great! Has a nice cut to it, doesn't look bulky at all

I'm 5'1" and about 118 pounds. I purchased a medium to allow room for bulky sweaters. The Omni-Heat features works well, and the fit was nice.

Highly recommend. This coat is super warm! You only need one layer underneath, this coat will keep you warm. I spent 2 hours hiking with my dog in 6 degrees and was warm the entire time. It's tailored for a woman's shape and the back tuck is a little off for my shape, but it doesn't bother me.

Fit was as expected. Well made and very warm according to my daughter who I bought it for. The gold inside was a hit and all the kids were jealous.

Great winter jacket for PNW - warm without being smothering. I love the thumbholes in the sleeves, it's exactly the extra coverage I was looking for without having to have mittens or a long sleeve shirt on underneath. The neck is tall enough (and soft!) to feel like I'm wearing a scarf without having to wear one. It was exactly what I was looking for dog walking AND to be classy enough to wear out on the town. The gold interior might be my absolute favorite part. Very happy with my purchase.

Great warm jacket. Had previously gotten the Powder Lite II Full Zip Jacket but needed something a tad warmer. However, I sized up to Med thinking it would be as tight as the Powder Lite. Reviews said it fits to size so I should have listened. Will live with slightly larger jacket.

I bought it for my wife Her size is S but for Her its very Large, How awful.

Very nice jacket but runs small. The fabric is much nicer and more comfortable than I expected.

I love this coat! Lightweight and warm. I wear an extra jacket underneath it when it's super cold out. It recommended to size down which is why I took off a star. Luckily I didn't. I wear a small and the small fits me perfectly. It's a pinch big, but that's fine because it gives me room to wear extra items underneath when I need a little more. It's great quality and I love how far up the neck zips. Also the neck has a soft lining which makes it extra warm on a chilly day.

I was looking for a non-down, cruelty-free jacket. I was skeptical that I would find one that would keep me warm. I also wanted something that was more fitted... not bulky. And this jacket takes care of both these issues! I live in Texas, so it doesn't (usually) get super cold. So I don't know how this would hold up in MN in the winter. But it's perfect for chilly nights here in TX. The collar stands up a lot... that's one of the two problems I have with the jacket. But when it's cold, it does keep your neck warm and protected! I'm just hoping it will lie flatter over time when I don't have the jacket zipped up. The other issue I have is that that there are no interior pockets. I didn't realize how much I used those in my old jacket. But I guess that's part of the way the Omni-Heat works. Anyway, it's a great jacket. I'm happy to have it.

This is a flattering, midweight coat that seems like it would provide a lot of warmth without too much bulk. Columbia got the fit right, the hips in this coat are not as narrow as the Mighty Lite line, and not as curvy as the Heavenly line. I'm 5'6 130lbs, between a S and a M and the small fit perfectly over a T, but I would need a M to comfortably wear a midlayer. If you're between sizes or want to layer, I'd suggest sizing up. I ended up returning this coat because I found the collar design to be a bit tall and wide, and the fabric is stiff enough that it didn't want to fold down when unzipped. It's cute and warm and sized right, just not quite right for me.

All the threads came out just 2 times wear and right side arm area open.
