I have needed a waterproof/weatherproof jacket for over a year and I'm glad I came across this jacket. I have had Columbia products in the past and they have always been worth every penny. This jacket is no exception. It comes with a liner that's really a lightweight fleece jacket that you can wear alone when it's not too cold outside. The outer shell is fashionable and does what it's supposed to do. It keeps the elements out and I stay warm and dry. For us big guys Columbia is a great buy. Don't settle for less.
