Watertight II Jacket

This jacket actually does what it says, I walked through a downpour and came out bone dry, no drama. The fit is comfy without being baggy, the hood stays put, and it breathes better than most rain gear I’ve worn at a festival or on a hike. Lightweight but tough, perfect for everything from rainy errands to back‑country trails. If you want reliable rain protection that won’t make you feel like you’re wearing a trash bag, this is it. Solid quality, zero regrets. 🌧️💪🧥

I needed a new waterproof and breathable rain jack and bought this on. I looked at the reviews and prices and I also trusted the Columbia name. I'm an old(er) man and though Columbia and I have both been around a long time, I've never bought one of their products before. This jacket does what its claimed to do, keeps me dry and its breathable. It also lightweight and packs small. Since I've just bought it, I can't say anything about its durability or longevity, but it seems well-made, should go the distance and the company has a good reputation. My old rain jacket was wearing out after only a couple of decades (how about that) so it was time. Personally, I don't like products with large visible logos but I ate the bullet on this one and bought it anyway. I would have paid more for the same item without a logo, but that may be just me. Finally, I would say that I'd buy this jacket again, hopefully after a decade or more of use. By then, I'll be really old

TL;DR: Lightweight, packable rain shell that keeps you dry for a fair price, best used with layers underneath. The Columbia Watertight II jacket is a straightforward shell that focuses on one job: blocking wind and rain. In my experience it does that reliably. The fabric sheds light and moderate rain well, and the seams and zipper flaps help keep water from sneaking in through the front. It is not insulated, which is a positive if you want flexibility. On cooler days I add a fleece or hoodie underneath; on warmer rainy days the shell alone is enough. Fit is practical rather than fashion focused. The cut allows a mid layer without feeling tight, and the hem and cuffs can be adjusted so wind does not blow up the sleeves or bottom. The hood offers decent coverage and cinches down well enough that it stays in place when you turn your head. As always with clothing, though, this is only an opinion, not objective truth, since body shapes and preferences vary a lot. What I appreciate most is how packable the jacket is. It folds into a small bundle that fits easily in a backpack or car compartment, so it is an easy “just in case” layer for travel or errands. The fabric is a bit crinkly, which is typical for this type of rain shell, but it has held up as expected so far without noticeable wear. Pockets are simple but useful for keys, phone, or wallet when you are caught in a shower. If you want a no nonsense, budget friendly rain jacket from a reputable brand and you are willing to layer for warmth, this is a solid option.

I ordered this jacket when I was running out of time to find a good quality rain jacket for a rafting trip coming up. The price was fair, the color is just as pictured and the fit is right on.

Purchased this to support the brand and also have a piece of clothing of this brand. Known brand with quality goods. This jacket fits and looks good to. It does feel cold on the back in the rain but might have been my under shirts. Recommmend this if you are looking for a Columbia Jacket.

This is the perfect rain jacket for a college student. It is true to size, packs easily in my backpack and is always on hand in case of rain and heavy wind. It is also a great price point for a college student on a budget.

This jacket is amazing!!! Very lightweight and breathable. I wore it all day and it felt just like a light windbreaker. I didn’t over heat in it at all like other rain suits that feel like your wearing a plastic bag. It’s completely waterproof. I wore it all day in pouring rain and stayed dry as a bone. I never once got over heated. I love this jacket I’m going to order a few more while they are on sale!!!

Nice rain jacket - stayed dry on a really wet day. Zipper and Velcro to keep the rain out. Columbia is great quality and less expensive than some of the other premium brands especially with the sale price.

Ótima! Perfeito atendimento e prazo de entrega.

Muy bonita, muy útil. La he usado en lluvia pesada y es completamente impermeable. Por lo mismo no es muy transpirable, y te acaloras pronto. Las tallas vienen grandes, soy generalmente M, pero esta la compré S y me quedó super bien, mido 1.75 y peso 72kg. Sin duda una excelente adquisición

منتج رائع جدا جدا جودة عاليه وستايل ممتاز ،الجودة عاليه جدا خامة وستايل .شكرا جزيلا امازون

I was tired of local raincoats, as water used to come through the chain. Also they dont last long. This raincoat has best waterproof tech. Happy with this purchase Check out the images Note: It was shipped as Columbia Men's Windcheater but got the correct product.

Fit was perfect
