Waterproof and breathable jacket

Heading out on an outdoor adventure, whether you're hiking a misty mountain or facing unexpected downpours, calls for the right gear. A waterproof and breathable jacket is your go-to buddy, keeping you dry and comfy no matter the weather. These jackets tackle the tricky balance of keeping the water out while letting your skin breathe so you don't feel like you're in a sauna.

With unpredictable weather always lurking, a trusty rain jacket isn’t just nice to have – it’s a must. Columbia's lineup of women's outdoor jackets, like their women's ski jackets and women's hiking jackets, are crafted to keep you both stylish and ready for anything.

You don’t have to worry about trying to integrate these coats into your wardrobe because we made sure our jackets come in various fabrics colours and patterns. We’ll never sacrifice style for functionality, and you shouldn’t either. Feel free to mix and match as you see fit and show off your personality wherever you go.

Columbia has been a big name for lightweight waterproof jackets for decades, thanks to our knack for innovation and quality. We’re all about pushing tech boundaries to make sure your breathable jacket can take on the wildest adventures.

One of our innovative technologies is Omni-Tech™, a multi-layered waterproofing membrane that keeps you dry and comfy by allowing moisture to escape while keeping rain out for extended periods. This functional waterproof jacket can handle anything from a casual stroll to a challenging hike.

Meanwhile, our OutDry™ Extreme technology takes waterproofing to the next level with a unique process that attaches an impenetrable waterproof membrane directly to the outer fabric. This makes for a light, more breathable, waterproof jacket with comfortable inner layers. Plus, our Omni-Wick™ technology actively moves sweat away from your skin for quick evaporation, even when you’re working up a sweat.

With features like hoods, underarm vents, and large pockets for active hands, these jackets are ready for any weather. Whether you’re layering with a women's 3-in-1 jacket or picking a light jacket for warmer days, Columbia’s got a design for every need.

We have a variety of different jacket models, each with its own unique features. When picking the right one, consider waterproofing, breathability, weight, and how easy it is to pack. You want something with top-notch waterproofing, so it can be your favourite for facing tough weather.

Most of our coats are designed with hoods to keep the rain off your face and zipped pockets for your essentials. For women, options like the hooded parka, women's ski jacket, women's sleeveless jackets, and women's rain jackets mean you’re covered for any activity. These jackets are made to be warm, flexible, and protective, so feel free to choose a hiking jacket that fits both your needs and style.

If cycling in the city is your thing, a cycling rain jacket provides just the right mix of movement and weather protection. The women's parka jacket and long waterproof jacket are great for handling harsh winter conditions while keeping you cosy and dry.

Columbia's all about pushing the envelope in both innovation and quality, making us a top pick for waterproof and breathable jackets. Our tech advancements ensure every product delivers peak performance, catering to all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts and hikers.
