I’m a girl, but I tend to get men’s jackets because the sleeves are longer. I’m a medium in women’s and got a large in men. This fit me oversized, exactly how I wanted. Loved the color, can’t speak on the performance. I hate giving a bad review, but the main reason I got this one, was because it said it was packable into its own pocket. It’s not. Looked online to see if maybe I was doing it wrong, but all the reviews said it would say packable in the pocket and the zipper would be double sided. Annoyed because I have to return this now and look search for an alternative again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you’re in need of a dependable raincoat that strikes a great balance between waterproof protection and breathability. It’s durable, lightweight, and comfortable, making it suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities. Highly recommended for those looking for practical rain protection.
this is not fully waterproof, after i bought it, and the first time raining time come, i wear this jacket, but my body was wet, i rather bought another brand if i know its not waterproofing!!!

I really like the style and construction of this jacket, BUT is has a serious issue, which is that it is chemically off-gassing so strongly that it is currently unusable for me. The one time that I wore it for a short walk in the rain, my clothes smelled until I washed them, It is so strong that I had to quickly move it out of the house. Even more than a month later, as soon as I enter my garage, the odor dominants the entire space. Really disappointed that Columbia and REI sell such a toxic product, and shocked that none of the other reviews mentioned this.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable, excellent quality, keeps the wind and rain off, love the colors and looks.
I'd been on a search for a good rain jacket that didn't make me sweat underneath, and actually repelled rain. This jacket is great for it! Water beads up and shakes right off, and I ordered a large so I can where it over sweatshirts. Even when I just have a t-shirt underneath, it protects great against the wind, and doesn't leave you sweating during the humidity of a storm. This jacket is a great bang for your buck choice, couldn't recommend it enough!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] very good jacket, its material and color make it unique
Bulky fabric and netted lining restricts range of motion. Hood doesn't fold into collar. Doesn't fold well for packing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice, attractive rain jacket. My wife really likes hers and this is a similar model. Especially like the mesh interior lining, which improves the comfort, as well as the zippered chest pocket. Previous reviews had mentioned these are sized large, so I ordered a small. I'm 5'7", 155, and tt was just a tad tighter than other Ms. The sleeves are slightly long, as expected, but the velcro closers worked well tighten the openings. The hood cinches worked well to tighten the hood around my head/face.
Bought it about a year ago for wearing the quarter mile walk into work when it’s raining and storming and it has performed like a champ. I stay dry unless it’s really warm outside and then I start to feel clammy just like any rain jacket but it definitely keeps the rain off
