Customers say
Customers find this rain jacket to be of good quality, comfortable, and well-fitting, with one noting it's roomier in the shoulders. Customers consider it good value for money and like its appearance, particularly the hood design.
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. Read more
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!!! Read more

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. Thank you for reading my review here, I try to be helpful. Notify/write to me here on Amazon if you have any additional questions for me Read more
Great purchase. I spent weeks researching rain jackets and this by far was the best deal in what I considered a reasonable price range. Way to go Columbia. You have designed a jacket in a good price range that keeps me dry. Isn't that what a rain jacket is supposed to do, but few actually do in a hard rain... this one does. Read more
