Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Timber Crest MTR Full Zip Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight thermal layer for transitional weather. Its primary benefit is the MTR Mountain Thermal Range fleece technology, which provides exceptional warmth without the bulk of traditional jackets, supplemented by a water-repellent finish. While it excels in damp, cool conditions, it is not intended to serve as a primary waterproof shell in heavy rain or extreme alpine storms.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, it is water-repellent. It is designed to shed light rain and drizzle, but it will not keep you dry in heavy, sustained rain.

Can I put this jacket in the dryer?

Yes, it should be tumble-dried on a low heat setting to prevent damage to the fleece material.

Does the jacket run true to size?

The Timber Crest MTR is designed for an active fit. If you plan to layer thick clothing underneath, some users prefer to size up.

What is MTR fleece?

MTR stands for Mountain Thermal Range, a proprietary Columbia fleece technology optimized for heat retention without unnecessary bulk.

Does it have a hood?

No, this model is a collar-only design without an integrated hood.

How should I wash it to maintain the water-repellent finish?

Use a mild, liquid detergent on a cold, gentle cycle. Avoid all fabric softeners and bleach.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads off the fabric during light rain.

The water-repellent finish may be wearing off. You can restore it by cleaning the garment thoroughly and applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment specifically designed for synthetic fleece.

The drawcord at the hem feels loose.

Ensure the cord locks are free of debris. If the cord is caught inside the channel, gently manipulate the fabric to release it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
  • Effective at shedding light rain and mist
  • Low-bulk design ideal for layering
  • Drawcord hem provides a customizable, draft-free fit
  • Durable construction suitable for city or trail use

Cons

  • Not fully waterproof in heavy downpours
  • Limited to cool, not extreme, cold temperatures
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain water repellency

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Columbia Timber Crest jacket, proper care is essential:

  1. Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the silicone-encapsulated water-repellent finish from the fibers.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat, which can damage the synthetic fleece structure.
  3. Storage: Hang the jacket on a wide-shouldered hanger when not in use to maintain the shape of the cuffs and collar.
  4. Layering: To maximize performance, pair this jacket with a moisture-wicking base layer in cold conditions. If you expect sustained rain, layer a breathable, waterproof shell over the top.
