I am so glad I purchased this jacket just in time for the Fall in NYC (and wore it today too!!). It is perfect and I am actually here to get another color!. Its very warm, and extremely light. It's just the thing for someone who doesn't want to lug around a heavy jacket so early in the season, but wants to be warm. It has a wonderful hood, zipped size pockets and hidden draw-strings below each of the pockets (so you can tighten it as you like). Lets put it this way: it was 48 degrees this morning, and I wore it over a simple long sleeve shirt and I was more than happy that it kept me warm :-). It's worth every penny, and because it is geniune Columbia Sportwear, it's made strong and durable.

I just came home from a sporting good store where this item was for "sale" for $29.99. It is incredibly soft and well-constructed. Does not look like it will pill. A light jacket, excellent for fall days. It is fitted (but not too fitted). You absolutely will NOT go wrong with this jacket, especially at $19.99 with prime shipping. I think I will take the one I bought back tomorrow and buy one (or two) from Amazon today!
