Columbia Sportswear Modern Bliss Jacket - Waterproof Insulated (For Women)

A more accurate color name would be "denim". This jacket has a very trim cut and wide waistband, similar to a traditional jeans jacket. I like the look, but I'm returning this jacket because it is too snug in the shoulders if I wear anything heavier than a tee shirt under it. I am size 8-10, not broad in the shoulders, and purchased a size medium.

The only CON is the color wasn't exactly as described. It is a true bluejean denim color. I thought it was going to be a brighter more vivid blue - according to the color name and picture. I wanted a brighter blue so I would show up on the slopes. I am keeping however because it is such a good quality,warm,versatile jacket. If I had found a better quality and the color for the price I probably would have shipped it back but I couldn't find it. This was a good sale price and I'll just make do and keep trying to find pants that would match

Great ski jacket. Looks nice, too.

fabric a bit too imitation denim; really looking for sale solid 3-in-1 for the NW layering needs

This jacket is so comfortable and warm. [...] has tons of pockets to store all your neccesities in. Only con was that one piece that covered the bottom button fell off my 1st day of snowboarding in it. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with this jacket.

Others stated the sleeves felt too long, I was excited as I have long arms. It's perfect for me! Only downfall is that the sleeves don't seem to have the same level of insulation as the rest of the coat. It's still perfect for what I need it for as I'm usually doing something active and get plenty warm anyway.

I purchase this for a cold weather jacket. I like Columbia and hope this would work, but it was too bulky and too large and medium normally works for me.

Returned the coat. Unusual to be disappointed by a Columbia Sportswear product. The sleeves were incredibly long and the little rubberized floral motif was a not so sweet surprise.

Ok... So My wife and I have these nick names for each other, Pink and Blue. That is a good story too so write me an email if you want to hear it. Anyway, I originaly purchased the Powder Bliss in the Pink color. It was a large but it was the last one and it was the color that I knew she wanted so I figured I could find one on line if it did not fit. It did not. SO, I could not find a powder bliss in pink any where. We then found this one and LOVED IT on the screen and LOVED IT immediately when we took it out of the box. I bought her White snowpants and a dark grey snowpant to go with it and both look great. Lots of compliments. Flashy but not overwhelming. She just left for work wearing it along with her Blink watch and some other Pink shirt! Super cute... The fur on the hood is a great touch but you can take it off if you want. I cannot wait to hit the slopes with her wearing this smokin hot pink jacket! She will now look as cool as her moves! fussyfrank[@]

The only reasons I didn't give this jacket 5 stars is that the sleeves are slightly too long and the velcro there isn't extended to make it a snug fit at the wrists (I'm petite); also I imagine if I'm not doing any athletic pursuits in the dead of winter that it's not as warm as I expected for everyday use. The inner fleece is only 100-weight so I would recommend a lightweight top and that should do the trick. I like the slim cut, many pockets, and all the little conveniences Columbia built in. Very durable material. Very well made.
