The Columbia Men’s Waypoint II Shell provides fully waterproof breathable protection for any day of the year. On summer backpacking trips, wear this seam-taped shell by itself. When it’s time to hit the slopes, zip in a compatible Columbia fleece (sold separately) and head out to catch some freshies. Underarm vents dump heat, and the stowable hood rolls away when you don’t need it.
Bottom Line: Waterproof protection, 365 days a year.
Which columbia fleece jacket will match this Waypoint II Shell?? I would like to buy both, knowing that they work with each other... Thank you Mauricio
I've used it for about a month now. It keeps me dry in light rain. In medium to heavy rain, not so well. It still resists water panetrating all the way in, but the surface DOES get wet and stops there.
Great for everyday wear. Buy this one if you want something that is light, yet waterproof. (if you leave in a city like NYC, DC, this would be good enough to keep you dry while you walk from one building to the next building or to underground.)
If you are looking for a hardcore waterproof gear, try something else.
With a fleece underneath, will this keep me reasonably warm during the Milwaukee winters? It gets down pretty cold, often into the -20s or even lower with wind chill. I'm a college student and just moved here.
Well, I can't really give a review on how this thing handled outside because I returned it the same day I got it. This shell is not truly zip in but is three point compatible meaning the sleeves and neck of a softshell/fleece can be attached however the zippers can not. So while, you can potentially where this with a softshell/fleece be aware that you have to zip that layer in addition to the shell up separately.
In terms of sizing, I am 5'11" and 155 lbs with a 38" chest. This shell was a great fit with one layer, namely the fleece I tried to zip in.
Looking for stowable( high school backpack/bookbag)for wet/windy walks home after school. Prefer shell for light weight . Cost is always a factor.This jacket or do you have other suggestions.
i haven't used it yet, but i'm certainly looking forward to skiing with it. Overall it seems pretty awesome. The seams are taped and it's lightweight and awesome. i got the medium and it appears to run pretty big, but its prefect because i'm gonna use it as my outer shell for skiing, so all my layers fit great underneath. Not much else to say until it gets a bit colder out so i can use it.
