Good medium-weight jacket, June 6, 2010
This is a good functional jacket. I live in Northern California where it rarely gets below freezing but frequently is around 50 degrees F. This jacket is perfect for this kind of weather without additional layers, and is the warmest jacket I have to wear on a daily basis. The arms also have some insulation, which is nice and not always the case in this class of jacket. In my opinion the fit and finish is good and also flattering. The outer material is weather resistant without being unsightly. The length is about right for me, and does not have a corded or elastic bottom edge, which i think is good for both comfort and style. I am 6'5" tall, and the XLT size fits perfectly.
In summary, I am happy with the jacket, I wear it most days in the 6 months of the year when it is colder out, and I bought a second jacket as a present for my dad.

A Fair Deal, October 29, 2010
I'm roughly 5' 11" and weigh 150 lbs. I followed Columbia's sizing guide and bought a medium which fits me fairly well. The jacket length is good and there is still enough room underneath to put on a sweater if need be. Microfleece is used to insulate the trunk of the jacket while nylon (I believe) is used in the sleeves and outer pockets. There is an inner pocket that is about 7 inches by 7 inches and is located right over your heart.
Overall, it's quiet comfortable. Not amazing mind you, but good. As another reviewer mentioned, the nylon lining in the sleeves initially chafed a bit whenever the sleeves tightened (say when you cross your arms) but I got used to it rather quickly.
The tag says "Made in China" also, just fyi.
I bought mine for $50 and am satisfied with the purchase.

Can't go wrong, July 12, 2010
What's to say...It's a Columbia Jacket!!
If you have never worn one on a cool rainy
day than you should try it. You won't be
disappointed. Also I always keep a Columbia
shell jacket with a hood in my backpack for
those warm rainy days.
