- Is the AmazeTrench fully waterproof?
- Yes. Columbia builds it as a waterproof rain trench with a polyester shell and lining. It is not a breathable membrane shell, so it suits rain better than heavy exertion.
- How does the fit run?
- It is cut loose, so most shoppers can take their usual size and still layer a sweater. If you want a closer fit, consider sizing down.
- Can the hood be removed?
- Yes. The hood detaches, so you can wear it as a cleaner collared trench on dry days.
- Is it warm enough for winter?
- No. It is a rain shell with a polyester lining, good for spring, fall and mild winter days over a midlayer.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash at 30 degrees and tumble dry low. Do not dry clean, which can damage the water-repellent finish.
- How does it compare with Columbia's other rain jackets?
- It trades the sporty look and lighter packability of Columbia's hiking shells for a trench silhouette with buttons and a detachable hood. Choose it for city wear, not for trail use.
