Spring to summer garment
I had tried to predict a weather by bying clothes that suits all type of air temperatures. Unfortunately any cloths makes are still in some whimsical mentally to attract a customer but not to satisfy a weather requirements. sorry, this item is not for a weather of 30th F and not for a weather of 40th to 45th. It is really way too cool or way too hot. please review your customer accommodations and to all New York City environment of a working individual. This was not purchased to go to gym or exercise outside. Additionally, once pants were not liked, the top was not needed either. That logic was not liked by Macy's store management.
If it ain't broke...
The Essential Hike jacket seems to be a new version of the Park View Grid fleece jacket. IMO the Park View full-zip Grid Fleece jacket was "essential"--a versatile go-to item for travel. So why did Columbia cheapen up the design of the original by removing the zip side pockets? The functional triple zip-pocket layout of the Park View was what set it apart. It makes me wonder what else has been changed/cheapened in this new version.

Don’t buy-Material is useless-00 durability value
Yes soft and breathable but zero durability. After one week the material started to come un done. Spend a few extra and get the Patagonia. It’s same look and feel and functionality but much more durable.

Great jacket if you like to sew!
I've had this jacket for less than a year and have repaired the seams about 7 times so far, and need to repair 2 more spots. I don't love to sew, but I need to catch the split seams early to reduce the amount of work I have to do. The thumbholes (which I rarely ever use) have split a few times, and the piping around the cuffs and hem have all had threads pull out. Unfortunately, Columbia knows their fleece suck and doesn't care or put money into correcting their fleece QC because it's not covered under the lifetime guarantee, as this isn't the first fleece I've had from them that this has happened to. (Limited lifetime warranty on insulated Jackets, Snow Gear, Shells, etc.) Besides that, it pills pretty easy. I wear this at work often (office job). I like the look but wish it was more durable.
