Columbia Women's Switchback Jacket

Good Wind/Rain Shell
Overall a good wind/rain shell for the money. No insolation or really any R value, but a good shell for the elements. Fits true to size and comes in a variety of colors.

The jacket appears exactly as it is shown in the picture as far as style. As far as the color, however, I ordered the "dark orchid" and it was not as dark purple as the photo displayed. Everything else is perfect. This is a very light jacket, so it does it's job. This jacket serves as a perfect shell against rain and wind while hiking or going for a walk in the spring. It would also fit perfectly around several other layers during the winter, however. Overall a great jacket for a great price and quick shipping.

Excellent!
Just received this jacket and it's great. Also, arrived in a timely manner. Fits true to size, color was as viewed in photo. I am ready for the spring rains with this jacket. Love the hood and that it can be tucked away beneath the collar if need be. Lightweight and excellent quality, as you would expect from Columbia outer wear. Great for hiking or just casual shopping attire.

Nice jacket for a blustery day
The jacket was received very promptly. I was happy to have it for this wet, blustery weather. It fits well and provides excellent wind and rain protection.

Just received this jacket yesterday! Perfect weight for spring and summer rainy days, but went to adjust the hood tighter and the cord snapped right off! I needed it for my daughters trip this friday, so unfortunately I can't return it. I am little dissapointed. Packaging was excellent though and other than that, it was just what we were looking for in the xs. True to size too!!
