Customer Reviews Columbia Glacial Iv Print Half Zip

The print glacial half zip is tighter than the plain half zip pullover I had previously bought in the same size. It seems one size smaller so I would go a size up if you want to buy the print half zip. I'm disappointed but don't want to go through the hassle of returning.

The navy houndstooth print was lovely. But the size ran very small, the fabric is very thin and the collar doesn't stand up unless fully zipped, just flops over

Fleece runs small overall - size up at least one size

Color and the pattern makes this unique, but the material is flimsy and on the cheapo side think Joann Fabrics. I purchased two, wore one, returned the other. Too expensive for something that won't make it though multiple washes. Also not long enough.

I love Columbia's fleece tops. They're my favorite brand. I have several types in my typical size (1X) and they fit and are cut properly for especially curvy bodies. Most importantly, they don't cling. Of all the Columbia fleece tops and jackets, this is the only one I've gotten that clung and was utterly unflattering. In addition, it fit tightly in the shoulder area. I was so surprised, I verified the size. It was a 1X and also was, in general, similarly sized to my other shirts of the same brand and size. I would recommend *not* getting this one as a plus size based on my experience. My tummy is one of my problem spots (baby fat that refuses to budge) and perhaps that was the issue with this particular top.

If you are dying to get this just make sure to order one or two sizes up, I normally wear a medium and this one was tight. It is almost like it got washed in hot water and dried on a hot setting.

The material is so thin that nothin else mattered to me. I was super surprised that it could be fleece and be so thin.

I bought this with the pitch black color (as displayed in the picture) in mind. Instead, I received this ugly gray color that even looks green depending on the light, but definitely not black at all. I am absolutely disappointed and will definitely be returning this item.

The black quilted fabric is, as other reviewers have said, so thin that it's see-through. The quilt pattern is more like perforations you can literally see right through them when you hold it up to the light which is an odd feature for fleece. Worse than that, the black fabric is always covered in light-colored pills that make it look old and worn even after just a few wears. I have to take out the lint comb and groom it like a Samoyed to make it look halfway presentable. Just a fail.
