Product Description
Stay toasty and warm in this Benton Springs Zipper Fleece™ from Columbia®. "Maximum Thermal Retention" fleece offers quick-drying, non-pilling performance. The jacket zips up the front and features a drawcord hem and hand-warming pockets.There's a reason that this Benton Springs Sweater is Columbia Sportswear's best-selling fleece style. The Benton's simplicity is its greatest strength. Made with MTR (Maximum Thermal Retention) fleece, you'll find the non-pilling, easy care fleece a blessing. Low-profile hand-warming pockets don't snag on whatever you're layering it under. Radial sleeves give freedom of movement for any sport or activity. Worn alone in the spring, or as a perfect layering piece, the Benton Springs is just plain good fleece.
About Columbia Sportswear
Founded in 1938, Columbia Sportswear Company has grown from a small family-owned hat distributor to one of the world's largest outerwear brands and the leading seller of ski-wear in the United States. Columbia's extensive product line includes a wide variety of outerwear, sportswear, rugged footwear and accessories. Columbia specializes in developing innovative products that are functional yet stylish and offer great value. Eighty-year-old matriarch Gert Boyle, Chairman of the Board, and her son, Tim Boyle, President and CEO, lead the company.
Columbia's history starts with Gert's parents, Paul and Marie Lamfrom, when they fled Germany in 1937. They bought a small hat distributorship in Portland, Oregon, and named it Columbia Hat Company, after the river bordering the city. Soon frustrated by poor deliveries from suppliers, the Lamfroms decided to start manufacturing products themselves. In 1948, Gert married college sweetheart Neal Boyle, who joined the family business and later took the helm of the growing company. When Neal suddenly died of a heart attack in 1970, Gert enlisted help from Tim, then a college senior. After that, it wasn't long before business really started to take off. Columbia was one of the first companies to make jackets from waterproof/breathable fabric. They introduced the breakthrough technology called the Columbia Interchange System, in which a shell and liner combine for multiple wearing options. In the early 1980s, then 60-year-old Gert began her role as "Mother Boyle" in Columbia's successful and popular advertising campaign.
The company went public in 1998 and moved into a new era as a world leader in the active outdoor apparel industry. Today, Columbia Sportswear employs more than 1,800 people around the world and distributes and sells products in more than 50 countries and to more than 12,000 retailers internationally.

I like the quality and Lagoon color in this well made fleece zipped jacket. I like the Columbia line of outdoor clothing for women. I gave the jacket 4 stars because this jacket is a bit short and boxy. I don't like the elastic toggles on either side of the bottom hem. It is a good layering piece, but not good as an outer jacket.

I really like it, very practical, warm, easy to wear, and fits on anything when going for shopping, or any casual event

Obviously Columbia is a quality brand. I wish something had indicated how thick the fleece would be, though, because I expected a heavier jacket.

I bought this item for my wife and she loves it. Very good quality
By S. Coppa (United States)
The polarfleece zip-up is well made and warm, without the bulk and weight of a sweater. Perfect for indoors in the winter or outdoors in spring and fall. I'll keep these on my wish list -- for more!
