If there is one thing you can't guarantee when it comes to hiking, it's the weather. Whether embarking on a climbing adventure, hitting the trails, or running errands, a waterproof jacket keeps you dry. Waterproof men’s and women’s jackets are a wardrobe essential for anyone who enjoys spending time in the great outdoors. Our collection of waterproof outerwear includes a waterproof down jacket and a technical jacket that will keep you dry on the mountains or hills.

At Columbia Sportswear®, our expertly designed jackets are available in various styles like greyblack and heather. They feature cutting-edge waterproofing technologies and innovative features to protect you from the wind and rain. Our waterproof women’s and men’s jackets are hard-wearing and built to last, keeping you dry from season to season.

• Omni-Tech™: this multi-layer technology seals out moisture while allowing sweat to escape. It's perfect for all sorts of outdoor activities, from hiking, trail walking to intense sports

• OutDry™: rather than use a separate membrane, our technology bonds a waterproof membrane directly to the outer fabric. This means there are no gaps where water can get through, keeping you dry even in the wettest conditions

Anyone who spends time outdoors needs a good quality waterproof down jacket. Our waterproof outdoor gear uses the latest fabrics so weather doesn’t stop you from enjoying your adventures. These items offer incredible breathability, durability and wind resistance, making them the perfect companion for every type of activities from camping, hiking to everyday wear. With a good waterproof women’s and men’s coat you can focus on your hike without worrying about the weather. Alongside their excellent waterproofing capabilities, here are some of the other reasons to get your hands on a waterproof jacket:

No one wants to be stuck in soaking wet clothes all day. That’s why a waterproof jacket is a must-have whether worn on its own or layered over a synethetic down jacket. While wet clothing will rub your skin, lower your body temperatures and cause skin irritation and even lead to coughs and colds. A waterproof outerlayer over a feather down jacket keeps your clothes dry and clean, even if you’re caught in a heavy rain shower.

Waterproof men’s and women’s down jackets use highly breathable materials to make them ultra comfortable and keep rain out while allowing your heat and moisture to escape. It keeps you cool, dry and comfortable from the inside out.

A great bonus of our unisex rainwear is that they are lightweight enough to wear them with other layers on cold hikes like a hooded down jacket or warm jacket. Wear them over a warm parka or extreme cold jacket for winter hikes or pack it away in your back when you don’t need it.

Our rainwear also come with superb interactive features that help make any outside adventure a breeze. Zipper fastenings ensure no water can get in while convienently placed, deep pockets let you carry your valuables while also keeping your hands warm. A waterproof winter jacket also comes with adjustable hoods, chin guard to protect your face and taped seams and storm flaps for extra protection against leaks.
