ColumbiaMen's Marquam Peak Fusion Parka

High Warmth

Love the gold inside heat stuff. It keeps me so warm!

Good but not 100% there

overall happy with the parka after second season. after taking to Germany & Austria and then blowing snow for an hour I'm still warm. only issue I've come across is after a few weeks of wearing, a zipper broke off and I can't zip up a pocket

👍🏻

Great

I got the coat 2 or 3 years ago. I love it. The only problem that I have is my thyroids when they act up in the coat becomes too small. So interested in getting one size up every time I look at 1 size up there gone. I would love to get the one size up. So I can have the coat to wear. If my thyroid flair up or not, it is a wonderful coat that keeps me warm and dry. I would recommend it can't do the down Sinus issues, there's always something

serious design flaws

For reference: I have 3 winter jackets - this coat, a Marmot down parka, and a Columbia Pike Peak. This jacket has a few major annoyances - the collar is very abrasive and stiff, the hood is also uncomfortable and poorly designed, there is not a waist drawstring - they put it at the bottom where it restricts your leg movement. The coat is physically heavy but surprisingly not very warm - my Pike Peak weighs half as much and is equal in warmth. My Marmot weighs half as much and is easily twice as warm! I was hoping this coat would be a day to day replacement for my Marmot as it's synthetic filled and I figured I could wash it often. Reality: I really don't like wearing this coat at all, and will give it away at the end of this winter.

My favorite baked potato foil coat

I love this coat. This is the second one I’ve bought. Blocks the cold and precipitation. So many useful and spacious pockets. The hood is great.
