About Columbia Sportswear
Founded in 1938, Columbia Sportswear Company has grown from a small family-owned hat distributor to one of the world's largest outerwear brands and the leading seller of skiwear in the United States. Columbia's extensive product line includes a wide variety of outerwear, sportswear, rugged footwear and accessories. Columbia specializes in developing innovative products that are functional yet stylish and offer great value. Eighty-year-old matriarch Gert Boyle, Chairman of the Board, and her son, Tim Boyle, President and CEO, lead the company. Columbia's history starts with Gert's parents, Paul and Marie Lamfrom, when they fled Germany in 1937. They bought a small hat distributorship in Portland, Oregon, and named it Columbia Hat Company, after the river bordering the city. Soon frustrated by poor deliveries from suppliers, the Lamfroms decided to start manufacturing products themselves. In 1948, Gert married college sweetheart Neal Boyle, who joined the family business and later took the helm of the growing company. When Neal suddenly died of a heart attack in 1970, Gert enlisted help from Tim, then a college senior. After that it wasn't long before business really started to take off. Columbia was one of the first companies to make jackets from waterproof/breathable fabric. They introduced the breakthrough technology called the Columbia Interchange System, in which a shell and liner combine for multiple wearing options. In the early 1980s, then 60 year-old Gert began her role as "Mother Boyle" in Columbia's successful and popular advertising campaign. In 1998 the company went public, and moved into a new era as a world leader in the active outdoor apparel industry. Today, Columbia Sportswear employs more than 1,800 people around the world and distributes and sells products in more than 50 countries and to more than 12,000 retailers internationally.

5.0 out of 5 stars great shower tent!, July 24, 2005

This shower tent was very roomy There is enough space to stand in one section and not get wet, even for a large person you will not feel cramped. It has a place for all your stuff even a towel bar. It was very sturdy it held up through some pretty strong winds. The only thing I would change is in the flooring it has a mesh section on three sides for the water to drain and I would put it on all four sides. There is a place that unzips for you to put your shower hose through and connect the shower head to the top of the tent, We took a black 50 gallon drum and filled it with water and put a pump for a pond in it covered the top with black rubber mat for maximum heating by the sun and hooked a regular shower head to the end of the hose and had enough water for many showers. This was money well spent! Sure you can buy some for $30.00 dollars but you can barely stand up or move and certainly cannot hang your stuff in them and they don't have floors. Buy this product with confidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice tent if you don't need light gear, July 13, 2006

This review is from: Columbia Shoshoni Falls Shower Tent (Sports)

I purchased this tent to use as a private space for a composting toilet that was to be set up in my garage workshop. I had no difficulty with set-up. It took approximately 15 minutes and I set it up alone. (I'm 5' 4" and 120 lbs., so it doesn't take massive strength.) The directions were clear. I did not need to stake it out as my garage is not noted for windstorms. I did use the rainfly as it added strength and stability. The materials were of good quality, and everything went together without difficulty.

This is a very large shower tent and was more than large enough to hold the composting toilet I intended it for. I would need to cut a hole in the back wall for the venting connections and finished that off so that it would not fray. I had no difficulty with the zippers or door. The shelves, towel bar and gear loft were nice accessories. The actual size is 4 1/2 ft. by 4 1/2 foot, not 5 ft. by 5 ft. as many sites list, which was a problem for me as I actually needed the 5 ft. by 5 ft. size to accomodate additional equipment. It is 84" tall center height. There is alot of room. The carry bag is very well constructed. The light and remote are also nice touches and worked well. There is a velcro patch on the ceiling that the light attaches to, with velcro on the back of the light as well. Batteries are not included -- 2 AA for the light and a 12 volt camera type battery for the remote.

This is a heavy piece of camping equipment -- about 25 lbs. The poles are steel, very sturdy but heavy. I find it hard to think of something this heavy as camping gear, but then I have back packing gear. If you were car camping or setting up camp for awhile in one spot and needed a private place to shower or use a porta-potty, and either had a very strong teenager who'd carry the thing in or could drive to your site, this would be great. There are bungee cord type connections to hold the shower hose out of the way. The shower tent takes about the same amount of time as most tents to set up, maybe a bit less. I paid $112 with free shipping for it on Amazon.

Came in very Handy, great for rinsing the mud off the kids as well as taking a full complete shower. I went camping with my family (44 of us)and the facility showers broke down, this shower saved the day, we all used it. I suggest you buy more than 1 solar bag, so you do not run out of warm water.
