I LOVE THIS JACKET!

I love this jacket. It's nice and light. There is an adjustable drawstring at the waist. The wrist cuffs are also adjustable. The jacket falls below my hips and covers half of my buttocks. I love how the hood folds into the collar and the jacket zips up over the neck. I bought this jacket in my normal size.

Pros
  • GUARD HOOD: Pull it out or tuck it back in, the adjustable, packable storm hood will keep you dry and comfortable in the midst of a downpour.
Cons
  • Legacy Model

Waterproof - Coats, Jackets & Vests

I don't usually write reviews but I was so disappointed with this product I thought I had to. I bought this jacket for a bike ride based on reviews. It rained all first day so of course I put on what I thought would keep me dry. I was soaked in an hour. It was not heavy rain, but continuous rain. Needless to say I will never buy again.

Pros
  • MODERN CLASSIC STYLE: When the weather turns foul, this versatile rain jacket is perfect for everyday use, with a clean, feminine fit and comfortable range of motion. How to Measure Use the soft, flexible measuring tape that came with your sewing kit. A metal tape measure from the tool kit or a ruler can give inaccurate readings.
Cons
  • Style 90

Waterproof Coats, Jackets & Vests

I bought this jacket to wear in a rain forecast half marathon. The jacket definitely saved me from completely drying out after being out in the rain for 3+ hours, but it did its job well and kept me comfortable. I was nervous about the sizing but the jacket fits perfectly! If you plan to wear a sweater I would recommend going up a size. For the record, I'm a little under 5'2" and usually wear a size Large top and 12/14 pants with a 34E bust.

Pros
  • COMFORTABLE RAIN JACKET: The Columbia Switchback III Waterproof Rain Jacket for women is a lightweight, waterproof rain jacket designed to keep you dry.
Cons
  • Minor issues

Columbia Women's Rain Jacket

I'm 5ft 7", 38 DDD and usually wear 14/16 or 0x/1x. I bought this jacket 3x because I DEFINITELY wanted something to wear with sweaters and I wanted it to be longer. He's huge. I will wear it and enjoy it. But maybe 1 or 2 times I guess. I've attached some photos to help. I chose black. It's very light - no lining. Welt pockets, with zipper - lining pockets mesh material The hood is hidden in the flap of the collar with velcro - the hood itself is on elastic drawstrings, drawstring Colombia…

Pros
  • Shell: 100% Nylon; Lining: 100% Polyester
Cons
  • Some Imperfections

Not waterproof for women

Disappointed with this purchase. I bought this jacket because it was advertised as waterproof. I went for a walk with my dog for about 20 minutes on a rainy day. I didn't notice it during the walk because I was wearing a hoodie under the jacket, but when I got home and took off the jacket, the hoodie got wet and the whole inside of the jacket was wet too. I couldn't wear it to work that morning because it was still damp inside. This is a cute jacket and good for a DRY fall day but unfortunately

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn

Recommend good for casual jackets

I bought this at the last minute a few days before our trip to Disneyland as I checked the weather and saw it was raining most of the time we were there. . I've seen some reviews saying it's not fully waterproof, but we pooled it and my clothes underneath never got wet. It definitely kept me dry! It's a mesh lining (not fleece). So if it's cold outside I definitely recommend wearing long sleeves underneath if you want to stay warm. My only complaint is that it's difficult to fold the hood back…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Packaging ugly

A+ Waterproof Windbreaker Ultra Packable

For sizing, I have a 36" bust and a 29.5" waist. I bought a small green one in August 2020. I needed a packable sleeve for my hiking bag. Fits perfectly around my waist. A little baggy around the chest, but still very pretty. I feel the sleeves are a bit longer but with velcro it looks nice. In November 2020 I bought a medium moon gray to use on my daily power walks. The color is more lavender than grey. It's slightly larger than small and offers enough space for a thick layer of fleece jacket…

Pros
  • Constant Test Results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer style
