Can You Fold Your Winter Coat into a Small Bag? The Columbia Reach the Peak Down Jacket

There’s no getting around the fact that it is ridiculously cold outside. All we can do is bundle up and hope for the best, while hopefully spending a limited amount of time outside. Thanks to Columbia, my bundling up just got a lot easier via the Reach the Peak™ Down Jacket ($170), available in five colors. Extremely lightweight, yet warm and fitted, the down jacket includes 700 fill-power down, Omni-Heat® thermal reflective liner to capture and retain  body heat,   Omni-Shield®  repellency fabric to prevent it getting soaked from rain, sleet, snow, the usual culprits. Last but not least, it comes with a small nylon pouch,  about the size of a shoe bag, to roll the jacket into, making it even more convenient — and portable! It’s great for travel, especially if you’re lucky enough to be heading to a resort or warmer locale and can just making it lumbar roll size for the plane or your carry-on suitcase.
