ColumbiaWomens Switchback IV Jacket Sunglow

I love it. It's light weight so I can wear it most of the year. I live in the southern region of the USA so the summer temperatures can be brutal. The coat is well made, stylish, and great price. It has 2 outside pockets and 2 inside that are roomy. I can fit my wallet, car keys, etc. , with room to spare. The last thing I want to do when a deluge of rain hits is carry a purse and I don't have to with the generous pocket space. I also don't need and umbrella as the hood on this coat thoroughly covers my head and keeps me dry.I'm very happy with my purchase and look forward to wearing it for many years.

The media could not be loaded. I originally ordered a small and it was much too tight in the arms when wearing it over a hoodie or a jacket, I re-ordered a medium and it’s a much better fit. I like how small it gets! You can easily toss this into a gear bag and not be worried about when it rains. I did wear it out in the rain one day and it held up for a few hours, however if it’s a total downpour, I don’t think this would save you for long. That is the trade-off between a packable, rain jacket and a big bulky heavy duty rain jacket. For touring around Scotland and in and out of intermittent weather, I think this would be great! If you’re going somewhere where it’s going to be pouring rain every single day get a heavier, thicker jacket, but then you have to sacrifice weight and space. Overall, this one is fantastic and it’s on sale! The shape is flattering, it fits well, and I won’t be caught without a rain jacket since it is so easy to pack away in any bag

Updating my previous review. The jacket was not exactly what I wanted. Just not comfy on the inside, too sticky to the skin. I submitted for return only to find out it's not the normal Amazon returns. The process took longer than usual but in the end I was fully refunded and they let me keep the jacket! The jacket is decent and the hidden hood is neat. Just wasn't what I was looking for.

Lightweight and nice color, runs a little small.

This is a very nice lightweight rain jacket. I like that it has zipper pockets and there is a hood inside the collar. Very nice looking and fits me perfect.

This jacket is a nice pretty lemon yellow and with an adequately sized hood. I am 5'4" and 115lbs, the XS was a perfect fit. If you wanted to wear this with a bulky hoodie/sweater underneath, I'd consider sizing up. It's not too heavy to wear for rainy summer days, a very light layer.

The jacket is as advertised--lightweight, apparently "strong" enough for rain and wind. Nice fabric. This jacket runs small, so I had to order one size larger.

I wore this jacket while walking through a down pour of rain, and the upper part of my body stayed dry. I was in a hot and humid place and was surprised that I didn't feel hot wearing this jacket. I feel like the rain makes the jacket feel cool. When the jacket isn't in use, folds into one of the pockets and looks like a little pouch. This jacket is great to throw into your travel bag because it's thin and doesn't take a lot of space.
