Columbia Boys' Lightning Lift Insulated Jacket

Honestly I will never get my kids gear from anywhere else besides one or two other stores. I feel strongly about my littles being warm, comfortable and able to move around in their winter gear. I started with the toddler one piece snow suit and from there I bought bib snow pants and this jacket but black to start. My son was 2 almost 3 when i bought the black set. That set is now on my three year old daughter and OMG the jacket and the snow pants HAVE zero wear and tear. TODAY I said ok I need to get sissy bigger snow pants and we have offically grown out of the black set and she said she tells all parents to get this stuff. My kids are always warm . My sons teacher has NEVER had him come inside with wet feet from the columbia winter boots. He has a black pair and my daughter has the pink pair, they NEVER HAVE cold feet and never do they get wet. I just ordered a new black set for my daughter as we finally did the grow with me technology on the black set after 3 years and its tight around the waist. My snow snow boards and my daughter skis and they were this set! ITS WORTH IT!! AS WELL AS THE BOOTS!!! no one has paid me to write this I have had a lot of issues with columbia and the shipping but the quality is great! My kiddos are warm and have no issues playing at recess and staying DRY! I have encountered terrible service from Columbia tho. I didnt receive items and I had to actually RE ORDER even though my order was there. I let it go but it was BAD. I get special pricing but they wont honor the scan code online but have done it for others (IN FRONT OF ME) However, both sets look brand new the reinforced knees are a GAMECHANGER! The grow with me is great for a month or two and then you have to order a new set. again I get nothing from saying all this . I am a regualr customer who buys this gear and stays loyal to the things that stay loyal to me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this jacket fall '23 but it was bit big on my 4 year old then fast forward few months later it was perfect fir for this winter and even next winter (for few weeks or months). Boy is it warm jacket! Absolutely! One of the best winter jackets! Get it you won't regret.

I have 2 other lightning lift jackets (original ones) that we loved. This one is way to short in the body. Not sure if I got a dud or if they are all like this. I got xs, it's shorter than the xxs original lightning lift jacket. Outgrown system is great (original didn't have that) but kinda useless on this coat, there is no way I'll get 2 years out of it (which is what I was counting on with it having the Outgrown system.) It's just to short

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Runs very small. I ordered a size S (8) and it was the size of a 4T coat.

Son wore this jacket for less than 2 weeks and the zipper is defective! It will separate leaving the jacket open and the zipper at top. Columbia customer service says to send it to them?! What good will that do when I will need to buy my son a new jacket for Wisconsin winter?! Horrible company

I want to love this coat, it’s warm and my son loves the look of it, but the zipper broke after only being worn 3-4 times. The warranty requires customer pay shipping without even a confirmation that it will be fixed. So ridiculous at this price point.
