Columbia Women's Lay D Down™ Jacket

I love this jacket! It’s my second one to buy, perfect for Alberta winters. The hood comes right over my head and the fur keeps my face out of the wind. The hood also comes off with a handy zipper. So warm and comfy and a great price for such a beautiful winter jacket.

I was looking for a very warm insulated jacket and I found it with this one. Great purchase! A little snug but overall super comfortable!

It looks as pretty on me as it does on the model. It's lightweight but warm enough for a 30+ degree day with little wind. The fur on the hood is removable although I don't think I will take it off. It'll also work during the summer in the Colorado mountains on a motorcycle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This jacket has been perfect during cold and snowy weather. It is affordable, comfy & warm. Great quality and nice design including a detachable hood & fur accessory transforming it from cute to sporty, with adequate pocket space and a powder guard for added protection in fluffy snow or windy conditions. This jacket has been a perfect compliment to my ski and recreational winter wardrobe.

I have 2 of these jackets now so I can have a backup when I wash. It is very warm and very waterproof. I've been in Yosemite down to 21°F and I'm fine (with gloves on of course). I just wish the inner pocket is on the outside. It is a perfect place to put a small FRS radio, but not easily accessible inside. Please note it might be a little bit while new, but once you wash it, it will be the perfect size.

This coat is so warm! I live in Iowa, where it's been close to -20 lately when factoring in wind chill. I'm always cold by nature, but this jacket keeps me warm, even in these frigid Iowa temperatures. I've had only Columbia coats since 2000 and I think this is the warmest one yet. Let's go through a few things one by one. Down - I've never had a down coat, so I was scared to get one. I'm not sure how it will wash, but so far, it's been the warmest coat! Fur trim on the hood - I'm not a fur trim person, but I just removed it and all is fine. Hood - The other coats I tried on (some were even Columbia coats) had terrible hoods (they were too big and hung down over my eyes - what good is that? Some even had the adjustable hood, but that still didn't work). I was able to adjust this hood tight enough so it does not block my vision. Neck area - I love this part. It is so warm and the fuzziness is so soft. Weight - It feels a little heavier than my other Columbia coat. Hand pockets - I love the large pockets in the Columbia coats! I stuff my gloves in one and my hat in the other. Keep making those pockets big! Comfort cuff with thumb hole - I've never had anything like this in any clothing before. I thought I could put my hands in there and wear my gloves at the same time, but it cut into my hand (then customer service told me it's not designed to be worn that way). Color - I'm not someone who wears bright colors, but I saw the neon sunrise jacket in a store, tried it on, and loved the color and the fit so I ordered it online. The color is bold for me, but I live in a town where so many people are dressed in all black and you can't see them at all when you're driving in the dark. I wanted to be seen (and not hit by a car!), so I decided to go with the bright (and noticeable) color. I do not ski, so I can't comment about any of those features of the jacket. Overall - a wonderfully warm coat!
