Clothing

The right jacket changes what the weather can take from a day outdoors. Columbia's outdoor clothing collection covers the full range of what UAE residents and travellers need across every condition — lightweight windbreakers for active outdoor days, waterproof rain jackets for mountain and travel use, fleece layers for mid-layer warmth, insulated puffer jackets and down jackets for cold-weather destinations, and softshell jackets that sit at the crossover between technical and everyday wear. Men's jackets, women's jackets, and styles that span casual city wear through to serious alpine outerwear — one collection for every outdoor and travel occasion the UAE calendar produces.

Waterproof Jackets & Rain Jackets

Columbia's waterproof jacket range uses Omni-Tech™ waterproof-breathable construction — a multilayered sealed membrane that blocks rain and wind from the outside while allowing moisture vapour from body heat and physical activity to pass outward. The Watertight II is the most consistently packed Columbia jacket for UAE travel — a fully seam-sealed waterproof rain jacket that compresses into its own hand pocket, weighs almost nothing in a bag, and delivers reliable waterproof protection across sustained rain conditions at hiking destinations, mountain routes, and European cities where rain arrives without scheduling. The Pouration II and EvaPOURation Omni-Tech Rain Jacket step up for more active and demanding outdoor use — fully waterproof with underarm ventilation for breathability during sustained physical effort. A waterproof jacket packed before departure from Dubai or Abu Dhabi removes the rain variable from every trip, regardless of destination.

Puffer Jackets & Down Jackets

Columbia's puffer jackets and down jackets are built for UAE residents who travel to genuinely cold destinations — ski resorts in the Alps, winter city breaks in Europe, mountain routes in Turkey and Georgia. The Labyrinth Loop Omni-Heat™ Infinity Insulated Hooded Jacket is the most versatile Columbia jacket in the range: Omni-Heat™ Infinity gold-dot thermal reflective lining reflects body heat back toward the wearer continuously, alongside synthetic insulation and a water-repellent outer shell, in a puffer jacket that packs into its own chest pocket. The Powder Lite II Hooded Jacket takes packability further at the lightweight end of the insulated range. The Delta Ridge II Down Jacket and Grand Trek III Down Hooded Jacket sit at the top of the down jacket range for maximum warmth — RDS-certified down fill in constructions that compress to minimal size without losing thermal output. For women, the Joy Peak Mid Hooded Jacket, Puffect Mid Hooded Jacket, and Heavenly Hooded Jacket cover the full spectrum of women's insulated outerwear from packable puffers to serious winter coats.

Fleece Jackets — The Essential Mid-Layer

Columbia's fleece jacket range is the most consistently useful mid-layer in the outdoor clothing collection — soft, breathable, and effective at retaining warmth across cool trail conditions, mountain mornings, and travel days where the temperature varies between settings. The Steens Mountain Full Zip Fleece Hoodie is the most widely worn: plush 100% polyester construction in a full zip format with a hood, available in black and a full range of colourways. The Benton Springs Full Zip Fleece is the core women's fleece jacket — a relaxed fit, soft construction, and a range of colourways that works across outdoor and casual settings. The Fast Trek series in full zip and half zip formats covers active outdoor fleece use for men, women, and kids. Worn as a standalone jacket in mild conditions or layered under a waterproof jacket in cold wet weather, a Columbia fleece is the layer that earns the most use across the most varied conditions on any trip.

Softshell Jackets — Variable Conditions Covered

For the majority of outdoor conditions that don't require a fully sealed waterproof membrane — variable wind, light drizzle, cool mornings on a trail — a softshell jacket covers more situations more comfortably than either a fleece or a rain shell alone. Columbia's Ascender Softshell Jacket for men and the women's Kruser Ridge Softshell Jacket use stretch-woven, wind-resistant fabric with Omni-Shield™ advanced repellency — weather-resistant outer construction in a jacket that moves freely and breathes during active use. The Tall Heights III Hooded Softshell Jacket adds a bonded fleece interior for warmth alongside wind resistance. These are the Columbia jackets most consistently reached for on moderate hiking days, travel days, and any outdoor occasion where the weather is variable but not severe.

Windbreakers — The Lightest Outer Layer

Columbia's windbreaker jackets — including the Flashback II Windbreaker, Spire Valley Windbreaker, and the Women's Paracutie Windbreaker — are the lightest and most packable outer layer in the collection. Wind-resistant and lightly water-repellent through Omni-Shield™ fabric treatment, these are the jackets for active outdoor days where wind is the primary weather variable rather than sustained rain or serious cold. For UAE residents spending time outdoors in the cooler winter months, or packing for destinations where warm days with cool wind are the norm, a windbreaker compresses into a jacket pocket and adds almost nothing to a bag while providing meaningful protection across outdoor hours where a heavier jacket would overheat.

Women's Winter Jackets & Ladies Coats

Columbia's women's outdoor clothing range covers every jacket category in silhouettes and proportions designed specifically for women. Ladies winter jackets span the full spectrum — the Heavenly Hooded Jacket with Omni-Heat™ lining in a mid-length insulated format, the Joy Peak and Puffect Mid Hooded Jackets as packable puffer options, the Delta Ridge II Down Jacket for down insulation, and the Arch Rock Double Wall Elite Hooded Jacket at the technical performance ceiling. Women's fleece jackets in the Benton Springs, West Bend, and Delta Ridge Fleece Jackets complete the layering system. For UAE women who travel to cold-weather destinations and want a winter jacket that covers from mild resort weather to serious Alpine cold, the women's outdoor clothing range has the right piece at every warmth level.

Men's Jackets — The Full Range

Men's jackets at Columbia cover every outdoor layering need across the UAE travel and outdoor lifestyle. A mens black jacket in the Steens Mountain Fleece Full Zip, Ascender Softshell, or Watertight II rain jacket covers the most consistently needed colourway across casual, outdoor, and travel settings. Men's puffer jackets in the Labyrinth Loop, Powder Lite, and Infinity Summit series cover the insulated range from packable travel puffer to high-performance down. The jacket with hoodie format — fleece, softshell, or insulated — is available across multiple styles and categories, making it easy to find the right construction for the specific temperature and activity the jacket is needed for.
