Columbia offers this jacket in multiple colors and sizes. Active Fit. To ensure the size you choose is right, utilize our sizing chart and the following measurement instructions: For the sleeves, start at the center back of your neck and measure across the shoulder and down to the sleeve. If you come up with a partial number, round up to the next even number. For the chest, measure at the fullest part of the chest, under the armpits and over the shoulder blades, keeping the tape measure firm and level.
I ordered a 2x just because I got it for such a good deal. Figured it would be way too big but with free returns I tried anyway. My measurements 38DDD with broad shoulders. 34 waist 46 hips. I buy most my fitted coats in an xl- I have a llbean puffer in an xl too that fits perfect. However i wanted space to layer because I know this coat is rather thin so I thought I'd need a 1x. Expected 2x to be too loose.The 2x arrived and I'm glad I took the chance. Wearing a typical Hanes tshirt the shoulders and arm openings feel perfect- very fitted. I hope a hoodie won't be too big under it!A 1x would have been a tight fit with even just a tank top on!There is a lot of space in the waist chest and hips - yet narrow shoulders! How does that work?! But the size in the rest of the coat will definitely accommodate layering and I have tons of movement in my seat.It's also worth noting that Columbia states it's an 'active fit' and the coat would be larger on bottom to allow for active sports.I think the lines make the jacket appear flattering despite the fact it's 'too big' for me in the waist and hip.If I had narrower shoulders I'm sure the 1x would be much more fitted and hug me all over for a more 'flattering' look but I really don't think they made this coat to compensate people layering under it!Additional review - comparing to other columbia coats-I own a few columbia coats. 5'5" 215lbs. 38ddd chest. Normally even with my build I fit into xl coats and clothes in brands aside from columbia.Columbia runs smaller than other brands, so I know to order up. ALSO- columbia adult coats always seem to have short arms!! I don't mind, they work for me but for someone with longer arms- be aware.Fits great. Seems warm. Light for the size/thickness of the jacket. More form fitting/flattering than on model shown. Also seems a little shorter than shown.In comparison to the 1x powder light columbia coat it fits same in size, but is shorter than the powder light.In comparison to the 2x mighty lite jacket the mighty lite jacket has extremely narrow shoulders. And the 2x mighty light shoulders fit the same as the 1x eclipse. So if you have broader shoulders the eclipse is fine. 2x mighty lite is much larger in chest and waist (despite having narrow shoulders! Someone explain how that fitting is suppose to work to me lol)
I don’t write a lot of reviews but this calls for one. The short of it is- it’s a great coat, you should get one. The long of it is- overall warm, light, total windblocker. Not bulky, quite fitted but still great freedom of motion. With a thin under-layer just as warm as my puffy down coats but don’t have to feel like a mummy in this one. But the details really make it, they’ve actually given some thought to design function. Pockets are soft and fuzzy inside . Interior pocket well placed upper left breast, with zipper. Sleeves are long enough (!) with nice knit inside cuff andthumb holes if you want a little extra hand protection. And my fave- when you zip it all the way up to your chin, they’ve added a little “tab” of soft fabric that folds over the top of zip so it doesn’t scratch you. That is the deal clincher Such a nice feature! And the zipper is installed in such a way that it does not catch the fabric when you use it. Hood good. Also like the quilting stitch design , and perfect length too, long enough cover thighs but short enough to go easy in and out of car. Don’t wanna wear it out, cuz I Hope they don’t change it before I want another one!!
This runs small in the chest, so if you need some room there, order a size larger than you normally would. It’s super warm and cozy and light weight with less bulkiness than other coats. The tech lining works well to keep you warm and it still seems to breath a bit too so you don’t get sweaty.
