37,000 shoppers love this 'slimming' Columbia fleece — grab it on sale for as low as $35
It's time to layer up and this baby gives you all the warmth without the bulk.
A favorite fleece is like a good friend. It provides warmth and comfort and always makes you feel good about yourself. Sometimes the outerwear gods smile upon us, offering us just that at a discount. This, dear friends, is one of those moments. Amazon just slashed the price of its fan-favorite fleece — the Columbia Benton Springs jacket. With quality material, a slimming cut, excellent hardware and, well, a seriously impressive name, this jacket is a home run. Right now you can get this baby for as low as $35.
Soft and cozy, this fuzzy jacket is made with moisture-wicking polyester and comes in more than 30 different colors (prices vary).
Why is it a good deal? 💰
This fleece goes on sale occasionally, but when the temps drop, the price tends to go up. We don't expect the price to go down again until you don't need all the extra layers.
Why do I need this? 🧐
Made of soft maximum-thermal-retention (MTR) filament fleece, this piece works to keep you toasty on cool fall days. It's thin enough to also serve as the perfect under-layer with a parka or puffer in winter. Large side-zip pockets securely hold a phone, keys and cash. And the collared neck is not only super-flattering but it's also ultra-practical, negating the need for a scarf.
Right now there are 55 colors to choose from, in sizes XS to 3X, with petite and plus options as well. But at this price, we feel pretty sure this item will fly off the shelves. So don't hesitate. You deserve the best, and just think how pumped you'll be to get out in the crisp air and exercise when you have the perfect jacket for the job.
What reviewers say 💬
With five stars from over 37,000 shoppers, the Columbia Benton Springs jacket is a clear winner.
Pros 👍
One five-star reviewer loved hers so much, she bought six! She shared: "Ok, I’ll admit when I find a garment that fits me great and is extremely comfortable I tend to become obsessed with it. I own six of these and I love all of the colors, especially the Red Lily, the colors are so beautiful. I wear these every day from early fall to late spring, they are my go-to jackets for my mountain hikes, park walks and all my daily outdoor activities...I love this jacket and dare you to choose just one!"
"This jacket is slimming," another five-star fan wrote. "I have several in different colors because they are warm, lightweight, & wash beautifully time and again."
"I love wearing this when I go on long walks with my dog. It’s very flattering, wind-proof, and just warm enough," gushed a rave reviewer.
Cons 👎
Some shoppers think the design could be adjusted a tad.
"I like the jacket but wish it fit tighter at the waist, but I am between a large and an extra large and I got the extra large," wrote one shopper.
Another shopper shared: "I don’t like the form fit for an older lady. I would be happier if it were a bit more boxy. Other than that, I love it. The sleeves are a tad long and do not ride up, which I like."
This is possibly the most popular fleece jacket ever made. If you've never owned one, it's time to get one. If you have owned one, it's time for a new one.
