Hooded parka

For many women, style, function and convenience go hand in hand. When it’s cold, rainy or snowy, clothing options that deliver all three become an automatic pick. Columbia’s hooded parka designs deliver these and more features.

Our anorak, faux fur, long coats with collars, and long waterproof jackets collections are your answer to chilly, wet conditions. They keep the rain out and protect you from the cold. Wear these for field work, site visits... Or drape them on when jogging outside, hiking with your crew or taking a morning walk.

Why choose Columbia hooded parka coats?

Columbia's selection of women’s hiking jackets stands out for its design, colours, and well-tailored form. But that’s only what’s visible. There are more reasons that make our hooded parka collection a hit with women of all ages. Among our most talked about jacket features are:

Thermal heat reflective material

Whether you’re an avid biker or someone who enjoys her daily walks, Columbia’s women’s warm jackets will get you through the coldest of days. Featuring Omni-Heat™ Infinity, our proprietary heat-reflective technology, our women’s outdoor jackets reflect your body heat to provide constant warmth without any stuffiness. Omni-Heat™ retains heat while allowing air to circulate, ensuring comfort. So you stay comfortable no matter how long you keep your parka coat on.

Waterproofing

In wet weather, you need jumpers that offer more than just style. You need versatile protective wear, and a waterproof hooded jacket from Columbia delivers just that. We’ve added our ground-breaking Omni-Tech™ moisture regulation membranes to the rain jacket lining. On the one hand, the membranes allow vapour from your body to escape so you’re cool and fresh. On the other, the waterproofing technology blocks water particles from getting inside the fabric. Such a waterproof and breathable jacket lets you walk through the rain in confidence.

Adjustability

When you choose a hiking jacket or a cycling rain jacket, you want to enjoy flexibility in how you wear it. Our women's rain jackets, thanks to their adjustability, offer plenty of the customisation you desire. Do you want the coat to be loose around the wrists? Loosen the cuffs. Or pull them in for a tighter fit. You can also adjust the attached hood on your women’s parka jacket so it’s snug around the head and neck. The waist, too, comes with an adjustable partial elastic band that you can move to keep the fitting just right.

Secure zippered pockets

Our jacket pocket designs are as much a fashion feature as a utility add-on. Each functional waterproof jacket comes with zippered pockets to keep your valuables safe. So, as you carry on with your routine evening run or bend to tie your shoelaces, the zip closure secures your keys, phone, and other items.

Light and comfortable

Each Columbia women’s waterproof jacket is warm and comfortable. We attribute this to the lightweight material we use to make our clothing. Stretchable, lightweight nylon and thermal insulated, each layer of fabric softly caresses the body. Our khaki and faux fur jacket selections consist of light jacket pieces that are perfect for day and evening wear. If you want something to keep you warm without extra weight to slow you down, the women’s ski jacket is worth a look. Light and packable, yet warm and snug, this piece will get you through the coldest snowy day without feeling heavy.

Variety

We pride ourselves on providing women with diverse jacket options. Our longline coats are cold-season staples. But if you prefer something shorter or lighter on days when the temperatures are warmer, we have options you’ll like. Choose from fashionable bomber jackets, gilets, women's sleeveless jackets, and windbreaker jacket options. The women’s softshell jacket and women’s 3-in-1 jacket collections are equally popular across various women's demographics.
