Product Insights
The Columbia Benton Zip-Up Polar Fleece Jacket offers lightweight, stretchy warmth with outdoor-usability features like an adjustable toggle hem and zippered pockets—typically found at higher price points—for $65. However, it runs large in body and sleeves (many size down), batch variability affects fabric feel (a minority report rough or thin fleece), pilling can occur with washing, elastic cuffs look less tailored, occasional zipper defects arise, and the black color appears as dark grey.
Verified claims
- Sizing
- Several buyers find the jacket fits slightly large in the shoulders and body with long sleeves, and some size down; most reviews suggest taking your usual size for a base-layer fit and sizing up only when layering over thick sweaters.
- Adjustable hem
- Adjustable toggle hem cinches to trap heat and block drafts.
- Fabric feel
- 100% polyester stretch polar fleece is ultra-soft, stretchy, and lightweight.
- Fabric consistency
- A minority report rough texture or thin fleece, suggesting batch variability.
- Color accuracy
- Black reads as dark grey; bourgogne is more muted than in photos; tangerine is described as a bright apricot. A few buyers find the color differs from the online photo.
- Value
- At $65 CAD, it includes an adjustable toggle hem, zippered hand pockets, stretch fleece, and lightweight warmth, and is priced below the $80–150 USD range of leading mid-weight fleeces.
- Durability
- Polar fleece may pill after repeated washing; proper care minimizes pilling.
- Stretch
- Stretch polar fleece for flexible fit vs classic non-stretch.
- Pockets
- The jacket has two zippered hand pockets and an adjustable toggle hem; the hem cinch is a feature more commonly found on pricier technical mid-layers.
- Cuffs
- The jacket has elastic cuffs; one buyer finds them less stylish than non-elastic cuffs on a similar Columbia fleece.
- Zipper
- At least one unit had a stuck zipper requiring professional repair.
- Fit
- Stretch polar fleece with adjustable hem for mid-layer or standalone use.
- Use cases
- Worn as a cool-weather casual jacket and as a hiking layer in mild weather.
- Pilling
- Pilling can be reduced by washing inside out and avoiding fabric softener.
- Fabric quality
- Most jackets are plush; a minority are rough or thin.
- Construction quality
- Buyers report well-made construction with zippered pockets and side adjusters.
- Thickness
- This is a mid-weight polar fleece that provides warmth without bulk, working as a mid-layer under a shell jacket or standalone in mild weather.
- Care
- Machine wash cold and tumble dry low; avoid bleach and ironing.

Cosy fleece
The sleeves are a bit long, which is usually never a problem for me and it fits a bit large through the shoulders. The rest of the fit is fine.

Ma préférée
Tellement agréable à porter, légère et douce. La couleur bourgogne est plus douce et atténuée que la photo, superbe couleur. Combo parfait avec un pantalon en velours côtelé.
Good design, good quality

See through
Didn't think a fleece jacket would be so thin it was see-through, but this one was. Returned.
Soft comfortable fleece
I have a similar Columbia fleece in white. Love it so much I ordered the blue. The only thing I don’t like about this style is the elastic cuff. My white one doesn’t have the elastic and I think it is more stylish.

Pas encore portée
Très bien
Exactement ce que je voulais. Très douce et pas trop épaisse.
Douceur, chaleur et confort
Très doux, confortable et surtout très chaud! Je n'ai finalement pas regretté d'avoir laissé mon vieux polar dans la placard!
Perfectly acceptable, but not soft
Columbia is a reliable brand, but I wanted something softer and more comforting. Ended up fitting my sister. Colour was nice, a bit lighter than in the photos. Definitely a warm fleece and would be an easy care item.
Merveilleuse
Chaude, douce, et prix vraiment raisonnable, très confortable, je suis très heureuse de mon achat
Confortable
Très confortable. J’ai pris small 5p2 110lbs. La seule chose c’est que la couleur noire est grise foncée. Ce n’est pas un problème de Simons, mais du fabricant. J’ai vu ce même problème dans des commentaires sur d’autres sites.
Beau, beau, beau
La couleur ‘tangerine’ (ou abricot) est juste magnifique, le polar est moelleux, doux, confortable. Je l’adore. Je mesure 5,4 ‘. Pèse 54 kg et j’ai pris small. Parfait
Columbia veste Benton
J'aime beaucoup ma nouvelle veste en polaire de Columbia. Elle est chaude et confortable pour les temps frais. La couleur rose est juste parfaite. J'ai pris ma taille habituelle.
Couleur réellement non conforme à la photo.
La coupe est parfaite mais comme je l'ai dit précédemment la couleur n'est pas du tout conforme à la photo. Je l'ai retournée.
Love it! Perfect fit.
