Columbia's Omni-Heat Thermal Reflective technology helps regulate your temperature by reflecting and retaining the warmth your body generates--all while dissipating moisture and excess heat to keep you comfortable. The technology truly manages body heat for exceptional performance in the outdoors. It provides an average heat boost of 20 percent without any additional weight or bulk, and, when coupled with other insulating fills, its metallic nature neutralizes the static that can cause migration and discomfort. The Omni-Tech Waterproof Breathable technology helps you stay dry in wet conditions. It's a multi-layer weather protection system that keeps outside elements from getting in, while still allowing moisture vapors to move away from the skin. These products provide premium waterproof and breathable protection. Microporous membranes keep water from penetrating the fabric, yet allow perspiration to escape so you stay dry. Omni-Tech's first layer of defense is called Omni-Shield, a technology that prevents most water from ever making contact with the inner layers. Next, a microporous membrane provides the primary and most impervious layer of defense by completely blocking the passage of water molecules into the item. Omni-Tech membranes are 100 percent air permeable, which means they allow moisture vapors to escape. This superior breathability keeps you dry from the inside out. Finally, lining materials protect the Omni-Tech membrane from underneath while adding additional wicking properties.Product Features:Fabric: 88 percent polyester, 12 percent elastane Omni-Tech waterproof/breathable technology Omni-Heat thermal reflective technology Seam-sealed Zip-in interchange system compatibility Center-back length: 25 inches Imported Manufacturer's Warranty Columbia Outerwear comes with a limited lifetime warranty.

Columbia's extensive product line includes a wide variety of outerwear, sportswear, rugged footwear and accessories. Columbia specializes in developing innovative products that are functional yet stylish and offer great value. Eighty-year-old matriarch Gert Boyle, chairman of the board, and her son, Tim Boyle, president and CEO, lead the company. Columbia's history starts with Gert's parents, Paul and Marie Lamfrom, when they fled Germany in 1937. They bought a small hat distributorship in Portland, Oregon, and named it Columbia Hat Company, after the river bordering the city. Soon frustrated by poor deliveries from suppliers, the Lamfroms decided to start manufacturing products themselves. In 1948, Gert married college sweetheart Neal Boyle, who joined the family business and later took the helm of the growing company. When Neal suddenly died of a heart attack in 1970, Gert enlisted help from Tim, then a college senior. After that it wasn't long before business really started to take off. Columbia was one of the first companies to make jackets from waterproof/breathable fabric. The company introduced the breakthrough technology called the Columbia Interchange System, in which a shell and liner combine for multiple wearing options. In the early 1980s, then-60-year-old Gert began her role as "Mother Boyle" in Columbia's successful and popular advertising campaign. The company went public in 1998 and moved into a new era as a world leader in the active outdoor apparel industry. Today, Columbia Sportswear employs more than 1,800 people around the world and distributes and sells products in more than 50 countries and to more than 12,000 retailers internationally.
