Best Columbia Backpacking Rain Jackets

Made from 100% high-quality nylon and designed for the active man, the Columbia Men’s Glennaker Lake Rain Jacket is comfortable and practical. This jacket is perfect as an emergency raincoat or to wear in colder or wet weather environments. This portable rain jacket is the perfect quick-fix layer of protection for those unpredictable rainy days. It has been designed with a waterproof Hydroplus 100% nylon shell and a 100% polyester inner fine mesh that helps to hold heat. Along with superior manufacturing standards and professional stitching, these materials keep you warm, dry, and comfortable while you’re outdoors. This portable rain jacket is light enough to fold into a pocket for easy storage and durable enough to withstand a downpour at a moment’s notice. The added features like zippered pockets, a stowaway hood, and adjustable cuffs and hem will make you ready for whatever comes your way. Columbia has manufactured this jacket to be easy and casual fitting, but has added a drawcord at the hem that can be adjusted to ensure a precise and snug fit if desired. This jacket can be stored in your car, at the office, or in carry-on luggage or personal backpacks for easy access and to keep you comfortable and dry during the thunderstorms that pop up unexpectedly. We’ve designed our Columbia Glennaker Lake Rain Jacket with a modern classic fit that is a universal, easy fit for a comfortable range of motion. To ensure proper sizing, follow these instructions for measuring. First, measure at the base or thickest part of your neck. For the sleeves, start at the center back of your neck and measure across the shoulder and down to the wrist. If you come up with a partial number, round up to the next even number. For the chest, measure at the fullest part of the chest, under the armpits and over the shoulder blades, keeping the tape measure firm and level.
