Review on Columbia Girls’ Nordic Strider Jacket: Stay Warm with Thermal Reflective Technology by Michael Powell

Very high quality materials and soft inside. Love the extra sleeves on the wrist - it's very windproof and keeps you warm. I don't like velcro; They are hard and sharp on the edges and will scratch you very badly if you are not careful. They also stick to my child's gloves and collect fibers. In time I will buy some buttons, remove the velcro and put them on. If Columbia were to omit velcro instead of buttons I might give it a 5 star rating.
