JCA: Really like this jacket, it’s made well, roomy, not tight, and has nice warm lining inside but not bulky.

Pepe de la Rosa : Excelente producto, no podría esperar menos de la marca Columbia. Chamarra muy ligera pero con buena protección contra viento frío, incluso contra lluvia leve. Caro, pero lo vale

Brandon: Fits great. Looks great. However it’s not very warm. Definitely a cool weather light weight jacket.

Diana DJBDiana DJB: De buena calidad, el material es suave y calientito, la talla me parece que es correcta. Ligera pero abrigadora. Justo lo que buscaba.

JBP: These jackets and are great for all weather conditions. I use the jacket in the Canadian winters while plowing the driveway in freezing temperatures. Its not something you would use for long periods in sub 0 temps. This is the second jacket i have purchased. It looks great to wear out in the town as well. The only concern was the zipper started to come apart but only after 4 years and I used everyday in the fall winter and spring seasons. It sill works but now use it for a work jacket. Size is perfect, use the size guide as it worked for me. Its light and easy to clean. Will buy again.

Juan Cuartas: Let me start off by saying I bought one of these jacket about 4 years ago at belk but in black. I pretty much wear it all the time and it still looks great! I decided to buy the same jacket but in grey since I love my other one so much but couldn't find it anywhere except here on amazon. I'm so glad I found it and ordered it. This jacket is exactly like the other one I have. Both are soft shell, Both repel water, and both keep you nice and warm. The quality of the jacket is great! I haven't had any loose threads, holes, or stitches coming off and I've had this second one for almost a year now. I'm 5" 11' about 200 pounds I usually wear a large but I went with a medium and it fits me just right. If you want the jacket to be a bit more loose I would go a size up. My only comment would be that I wish it had a pocket on the inside but that's it. Overall great jacket, great price, would 100% recommend and buy again.

Moises: I have an older NorthFace Apex Bionic Soft shell that I love. but after a few years of camping in it and having a lighter color, I decided I want to get a second one in black because years of camping and hiking grime and campfire soot made it dingy and unattractive. It still works great but not appropriate to wear to work because it makes me look like a dirt-bag. So I wanted to get a second one to wear everywhere except the trail and keep the dirty one for the backwoods. Unfortunately, My house got messed up pretty bad and both my cars were totaled in Hurricane Mathew and a lot of the stuff I wanted or needed this winter had to be dialed down so I could afford repairs. Then I found this black Columbia Ascender soft shell and found it was half as much as the northface and even better, the one with the electric blue zipper was even less! I wasn't too keen on the blue zipper but after I wore it a while it grew on me and I love it now and glad I got it over the plain black on black. It was worth it both on looks and the bargain price.

The following information is based on my opinion when comparing the NorthFace Apex Bionic to this Columbia Ascender:

James Truax: update 3/22/2017: so i've had this over a year and its still a great jacket. great wind breaker still has water repellant properties as in water rolls off the jacket b4 being absorbed for the most part. the only problem is i'm fatter than a year ago so its snug. but ive washed it in the washer before. i luv the pockets and zips for the pockets. no hoodie but the collar is tall to help protect your neck a bit. the fleece is a bit thin so i feel the cold when sitting out in the 40degree weather a bit. and its a very snug for me so i can't fit a sweater or layers under it but i recommend getting size larger if you plan on putting a few layers under unless you're pretty skinny. i'm more plump so its snug. but i like the fit and shape it kinda slims my chest and belly a bit.
but thinking about getting a larger one maybe another color to be able to wear extra sweaters or layer it for really cold weather :) still 5 stars
great waterproofing. i have been showing this off to customers and friends and family i go to their sink and put my arm under the water and put on full blast for 10seconds and all the water rolls off.

very light so its great for places like...
