Is Columbia sportswear a good brand?
I’m a male living in western NY – really cold up here! I have their Columbia Ultimate Interchange Parka and love the design & cut of it. For this winter I’m planning on getting the Columbia Ital Corner Jacket.

What do you think of it? Color & look? [all opinions are appreciated!]
Also, I’ve heard from some people that Columbia isn’t really a good brand, not quality wise but reputation wise. Is this true? Sorry, I’m new in US, so don’t know much about local/national brands.
Yeah, it is an excellent brand of jacket. My winter jacket is actually a Columbia, and it has lasted me since I graduated high school and I still have it to this day. And what the other people told you about Columbia not being a good brand reputation wise may or may not be true, but I personally think that it is a good brand either way. It can be pretty spendy though. I think the average Columbia jacket prices at $50.00 depending on where you look and or where you buy it from.
Hope I helped!!
