The jacket is very comfy and has big pockets. The only thing I hate is the zipper, which catches on the bottom and sometimes doesn't zip properly so you have to rezip it which is annoying. The jacket is warm enough (not super warm) and the additional attached underlying jacket is a nice feature so you can remove it when it's spring time. Nice jacket for the price and durable so far.

I was very pleased with the look and feel of this jacket. It's not that heavy but it is warm and I like the removable fleece liner jacket. The only thing is I think the sizes run a little small. The detachable hood is a good asset as well. Well worth the money I paid.

I just got it today, and love it. After trying on a several Columbia parkas at a department store I was uncertain about how I would like this one. Most of the other parkas made me feel huge, stiff, and very round. Since the price was right, I gave it a try. It's a great fit, and even makes me look slimmer. It is a bit roomy, but I don't mind that at all. If you prefer an exact fit, I suggest to go down a size. It should keep me warm and dry on most winter days. On very cold days I would wear additional fleece under it, as it may not be quite warm enough for the coldest days. I would rather add layers than have a parka that is too bulky. I do have to get used to the zipper, it seems a bit stiff.

I searched and searched for the perfect jacket. I wanted one that had the zip out liner and was waterproof and warm. I got everything that I wanted! The gray/purple was not my first choice of colors, but I have gotten so many compliments already! I love this jacket, it has the perfect amount of pockets, a large hood and it comes to the hips which is great.

This is a beautiful, easy fit parka. I have purchased it few months ago and I have used it in Boston's (MA,USA) winter and I have felt no cold with it. It is also completely wate resistant and I have biked with it in a shower like rain and haven't got wet.

After searching around the internet, and read reviews, I decided to buy this parka at Amazon. Some other sites might give lower prices on other similar items, but I don't feel them trusty enough. I went with this jacket, and I end up loving it a lot. The quality is good, and I can see the original tags including price tag on it. It fits me well and soft, and not so bulky.

I just received this parka yesterday, in time for a huge snow storm in Cleveland. I immediately took the tags off and wore it out the door. I was very pleased with how warm it kept me. I was concerned that it wouldn't be because it isn't very heavy. The only thing I don't like is the "crunchy" sounds I make while I move.
