About Columbia Sportswear
Founded in 1938, Columbia Sportswear Company has grown from a small family-owned hat distributor to one of the world's largest outerwear brands and the leading seller of ski-wear in the United States. 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. They 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.

Columbia Steens Mountain fleece jacket
I bought this as a gift to my husband. The size I selected is perfect for him. Its color is called "dark adobe" and it goes with all colors of his pants. He loves it. It's warm on even the coldest of days. He gets lots of compliments every time he wears it. I love it because the price was affordable and because it's machine washable and dryable. He's hard to find gifts for, but this one was a perfect choice.
Customer Review: Warm and comfy!

At $30 this is a basic fleece that far exceeds the quality of an Old Navy or off brand fleece. Warm and comfy, I wear this sucker every chance I get...Comfy enough for around the house and much nicer looking that my old torn sweatshirt...can't beat the quality at that price!Customer Review: Great sweater for a low price

I was very impressed by the quality & price of this sweater, I ordered a Large in Black. Not only does it fit perfectly & look good, by the way I'm 5'9, 170 LBS. The shipping on it was super fast, being the holiday season I was expecting to wait a week to receive it, it only took 1 day. Great product, great price, super fast shipping, I can't complain about my order. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT !!!!!Customer Review: Good product, bad merchant

Columbia sweater jacket is nice, but needed a different size. Found dealing with Altrec very difficult. Finally got the correct item but it took way too many phone calls.Customer Review: Nice jacket.

I bought one of these for myself and one for my wife. They are very nice jackets for mild weather. However, I bought the 3XL-Tall for myself and does not fit like a TALL. The tag says 3XLT but the length is similar to a couple of other jackets I do not like wear that are normal length. It is a very nice jacket but I probably will not wear often since it is short in length.
