Exactly what I was looking for

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super soft and mid- weight- great for layering. I plan on wearing this as an outer layer for spring/fall hikes and mid layer skiing.

When I got this I tried it on, fit well so after reading instructions, I washed it inside out on tap cold and then line dried. Put it on to wear this morning and when I went to zip it up the zipper broke! Never even wore it once and now that it is washed I cant return it. Really, really cheap quality. Hopefully the other color I bought does not do the same!

Cheaply made and disappointing
Originally posted on columbia.com
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Luckily I didn't buy this at full-price. It is really thin and flimsy. Also, the fleece is not on both sides of the fabric, which is pointless. I have tops like this from another retailer that has the fleece on both sides and they are warm and comfortable.

Size Up for a Comfortable Fit

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered this top in my usual large size thinking that even though it is listed as body skimming, that Colombia clothing is usually generously cut. This top is long in both the body and arms, but cut narrow and straight at the hips. I am going to have to shorten both the sleeves and the hem to feel comfortable wearing this top. Even then it is really too small.

Purchased a small, fits well as described (fitted), half zip is nice. Wish it had pockets and came in other colors! Also inside of material is not as soft as the outside.

Columbia quality has gone SO far downhill.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was looking for a close-fitting, thin stretch fleece top to wear as a thick baselayer, so I ordered this in a size small in the purple. The fleece is REALLY cheap...the kind that makes your teeth squeak a little when you touch it, if you know what I mean?? The color is pretty, though. I hated that it didn't stretch enough in the elbows, and just didn't seem worth the money, even on sale. It's not horrible...but it is "big discount box store" quality, which just makes me so sad. Growing up Columbia was my tried-and-true brand. I have several pieces that are 15 years old that I wear weekly, if not near daily! This little top will be lucky to last a season or two.

Highly Disappointed

Terrible quality. I am so disappointed in Columbia. Thin. The poorest quality fleece. The blue is a nice color. The red looks like it’s old and used for years. Sad

Not what I expected

Not the thick fleece I expected, so probably won’t wear that much in winter. Will see how it holds up over time.

very lightweight fleece...sizing runs small

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice, but very thin...sizing runs small, need to order a size larger than normal especially if you plan on wearing something underneath it, which ai would recommend since the fleece is so lightweight.

Such a light yet warm layer. Nice and thin for layering but keeps you toasty warm. I already have another color and it washes very well.

Great shirt
Originally posted on columbia.com
The Glacier Half Zip fleece is a classic that works well for relaxing home, camping, hiking in cooler climates or any other casual activity.I just bought another two of these shirts and did so because the two I have are my favorite everyday shirts for cooler weather. They are so comfortable and do the trick to keep me warm. I usually wear a medium in Colombia and find these are a bit loose but I like that I can add a layer under if needed.

My New Favorite Top

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my new very favorite piece of clothing. 5'9" 130 bought a small. Fits like a glove - which is what I was going for. Cozy. Sleeves and torso length long enough. I find I'm planning my wardrobe around it. Wish it came in more colors! I already also bought the blue.

This is my favorite fleece!
Originally posted on columbia.com

I have been looking for YEARS for a fleece that was long enough in the torso and had long enough sleeves to replace my favorite fleece that finally wore out. This style checks both of those boxes. I am 5'8" with a slender build and I must have longish arms because I often find that sleeves are a little short for me. I also want something that covers my belly and doesn't ride up. I bought one of these in a small last year and loved it so much that I bought 3 more! I wear them all the time over t-shirts, they are the perfect weight and a nice slim fit for me. I generally wear a small in tops so this seems to run true to size. If I liked a looser fit, I think a medium would also work. The fleece is soft and doesn't have a pilling problem or look flat and sad after a year. The ONLY thing I don't love is the width of the neck, sometimes when it's fully zipped it ends up around the outside of my chin and I have to push it down because it feels weird up there. I don't think it impacts the warmth or the look, I just wish it fit a little bit more snugly there. Obviously it's not a dealbreaker for me though, as I gave away all of my other fleeces and wear only these now!
