Our take on the Columbia Karis Gale Hooded Jacket

The Columbia Karis Gale is a women's waterproof hooded jacket built for wet, cold-weather days. Its seam-sealed shell and attached hood keep rain out, and the longer cut covers the hips. It sits between Columbia's light rain shells and its insulated winter parkas, so it suits cold rain rather than deep snow. Owners like the weather protection and the roomy fit; some find it bulky and warm for mild days.

Questions and answers

Is the Karis Gale warm enough for winter?
It is a waterproof shell, not an insulated parka. It handles cold rain and wind, but in freezing weather you need a fleece or sweater underneath.
Does it fit true to size?
Most owners say it fits true to size or slightly roomy. If you want a close fit, consider sizing down; if you layer thick sweaters, keep your usual size.
Is it fully waterproof?
Yes. Columbia builds it with a waterproof shell and sealed seams, and owners report staying dry in steady rain.
How does it compare with Columbia's insulated winter jackets?
It is lighter and less warm than Columbia's insulated parkas. Choose it for wet, mild-to-cold weather and pick an insulated model for deep winter.
Does the hood come off?
No, the hood is attached. It is adjustable so it stays in place in wind.
What should I wear under it?
A base layer plus a fleece or light sweater works for cold rain. For snow or hard freezes, add a warmer midlayer.
Where is the Columbia Karis Gale Hooded Jacket cheapest?
At Columbia, for $54.00, as of our latest check.
