About this deal

The weather in the South can be unpredictable. This December in Georgia we’ve seen mostly gray skies with temperatures from warm to cool and lots of rain. With the rain and some warmer days humidity has been steady. The tough-feeling shell fabric should last for many seasons, which isn’t always the case with budget products.

Who could forget that Gert Boyle, the founder of Columbia Sportswear with her famous sense of humour, strapped her son to her car roof and drove through a rainstorm? Many of us remember the iconic Columbia ads from the 80s and 90s, where the “Tough Mother” sent her son through a carwash or performed other experiments in the name of product testing. At Columbia, we keep the motto Gert Boyle stood by: “It’s perfect. Now make it better.” We looked for coats that work for most seasons, allow room for layering underneath, and don’t overheat on a summer commute. Choice of sizes and colors – across the whole range, you can get extra tall, small, and extra large sizes with plenty of color options. Not all brands are created equal, but you can count on Columbia’s waterproof and breathable clothing to keep you dry in whatever outdoor adventures you’ve got planned. This new piece from Columbia sports is an upgrade to Columbia’s signature Omni-Heat technology. Where the older version of Omni-Heat used uniform pieces of silver reflective material, the Infinity Summit utilizes gold material of varying sizes. Columbia claims that the gold material reflects heat better, while the smaller dots add to the reflective surface without restricting the flow of excess heat.

Straight out of Portland, Oregon, Columbia Sportswear has been fighting the good fight for over seventy years. Their dedication can be be seen by taking a good, hard look at Gert Boyle: reigning Chairman for over forty years, more than half of Columba’s history. She’s been thirsty for business, and kept with sincere, honest, transparent apparel that follows their Transparency in Supply Chains Statement.

Columbia Watertight II Review | Tested by GearLab

Waterproof nylon shell with Omni-Tech moisture management technology that keeps rain out but allows your skin to breathe.

The zippers extended length to the chin, along with the significant depth of the hood kept my face dry and prevented water from dripping down onto the chest. The only issues I have since encountered with the hood is that it is so deep looking to the left or right is nearly impossible while wearing it, and although there is a small brim at the top it is not firm so expect to have some droop in heavier rains.

Every hike, climb, ride or trip to the grocery store requires the right tool for the job.
