Columbia Women's Benton Spring II Long Hoodie

Ordered this jacket to take on a cruise to Greenland, where it would be in the mid to upper 40's. Perfect jacket. Warm enough, but not too hot It isn't waterproof, per se, but in light drizzle the rain didn't soak through, so I was able to stay comfortable. Length is mid-lower hip length which was perfect. Flattering for a fuller figure. The sleeve length was good, too. One note of caution--it runs small. I wear a 1X in clothing and had to order a 3X in this jacket to get a comfortable fit. Great zip pockets. Really loved the blue color. I had also ordered the black and returned it. It was more a very dark charcoal and looked somewhat "utility" and masculine. Not very flattering for me. I am so glad I gave this jacket a try. It will be my "go to" jacket for the upcoming fall and winter!

I am 5'8" and 164lbs, and the large fits me nicely! This is my second purchase of this exact sweater/coat. I purchased one years ago at a local retailer that I wore almost daily in the fall, winter, and spring here in the PNW. The zipper eventually gave out and the material looked pretty worn. It lasted over 5 years of frequent use, so I was satisfied. I loved it so much, I went on the hunt to find a new one. I was shocked to find that Columbia still makes it, and Amazon sells it! I waited for it to go on sale before purchasing, but honestly the regular price is far below what I paid for my first one years ago. The length and overall fit is just right. It is very warm and the material is soft. I personally like the oversized hood on this sweater, too. It helps keep my face dry when it sprinkles, which is often in the PNW. It doesn't take long to dry out from the light rain. The fit is very stylish, as it snugs up closer to the waist but tapers out around the hips and covers my bottom. The gray color contrasts well to black leggings. This is my go-to sweater for mild weather!

I got this for my wife and she could not be happier! The size is true to fit and it is very warm! The problem with many fleece jackets is that the wind will cut right through them. This one blocks the wind, or at least most of it! It is very soft and comfortable. The color is exactly what she wanted!

Cozy and Warm (but Not Bulky) Many buyers praise the fleece’s comfortable warmth — it keeps you cozy on chilly fall and mild winter days without feeling bulky or stiff. The extended length gives extra coverage and pairs well with leggings or jeans.

Love the look and the fit. Have purchased Columbia jackets in the past and they've always been very comfortable to wear. Recommend.

Columbia fleece runs snug so buy one size up if you prefer loose fitting

Cozy, very warm, soft fabric and long enough to cover the bottom of the trunk, which I was desperately needing for frigid weather. BUT, while the zippers function well, the hand pocket zippers were miserable for me; harsh, scratchy, skin-scraping. Too late to send back, i’d already worn it. I managed to cut out the zippers with tiny “swan” scissors, avoiding nicking the fabric or seams. Took a longgg time, lot of patience but I can use the pockets now. Just know, if that if it could be a problem for you, avoid this one. Surprised at Columbia for missing this detail.

Bought these for matching company jackets. Embroidered logo on each. Lots of sizes for everyone- works great- good value

Good it is kind of small on me but I think that’s the style and usually I wear size medium/large clothes. Also there is 2 zippers

Very warm and well fitted jacket for woman's figure. Medium size is more like 10-12 (Australian) than 8-10.

Me encantó calientita

El fleece suave y caliente. Al lavarlo quedó intacto , y al secarlo, fue rápido.

This is a lovely fleece, it am between a 12 and 14 and a 38dd, I ordered xl, I was a bit disappointed when it arrived as it wasn't black but a dark grey, it was pretty spacious and looked quite wide on me, so I returned it, in terms of quality it was great, I reordered a size large it came from amazon U.S, came earlier than stated, and is more fitted which I prefer, and it's also black, not dark black, but black, it is hot right now, roll on winter because I am going to be all warm and cosy.
