Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Arcadia II Rain Jacket is a versatile, high-performance outer layer designed for women who need reliable protection during outdoor activities or daily commutes. Its primary benefit is a fully seam-sealed, waterproof, and breathable construction that keeps you dry in both light drizzles and heavy downpours, though it is primarily designed as a shell and provides limited insulation on its own.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

No, the storm hood on the Arcadia II is integrated into the collar for better weather sealing.

Can I wear this in cold weather?

Yes, it functions as a great windproof shell, but you will need to add insulating layers like a fleece or down vest underneath.

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

Turn one of the hand pockets inside out and fold the jacket into it; secure it using the internal zipper pull.

Does this jacket have underarm vents?

No, this model relies on the inherent breathability of the Omni-Tech fabric and the mesh lining to manage heat.

Is it machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable. Follow the care label instructions to ensure longevity of the waterproof coating.

Is the jacket true to size?

The jacket is designed with a standard athletic fit; if you plan on wearing heavy layers underneath, you may prefer to size up.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on low to reactivate it, or apply a spray-on DWR treatment if necessary.

Moisture buildup inside the jacket

Ensure you are not over-layering with non-breathable fabrics. The jacket's breathability works best when paired with moisture-wicking synthetic or wool layers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, follow proper care guidelines. Always machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof coating. Tumble dry on low heat to help reactivate the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish. For storage, ensure the jacket is completely dry before folding it into its pocket to prevent mildew. The jacket is designed to be worn over layers; consider sizing up if you intend to wear bulky fleece or sweaters underneath.
