The details
Lightweight and waterproof, Columbia's Women’s Arcadia II Jacket has racked up 3,000 reviews with an average rating of 4.6 stars.
This rain shell is self-packable, which means it easily folds down to fit into its own pocket, making it perfect for hiking or travelling. A breathable mesh lining and light warmth make it ideal for spring days.
It has a lot of fan-favourite features, including an adjustable hood to help block wind, a drawstring waist cinch, and a zippered pocket to keep your valuables secure while you're on the move.
The waterproof design makes rainy days a breeze — the Omni-Tech outer sheds water and releases excess heat, according to the company.
