A sleek, lightweight winter coat that blends on-slope technology with clean, streetwear-savvy lines, the Ice Axe is perfect for mild on-mountain days or pairing with a button up for Tapas Tuesday at El Toro. An updated design features our stretch softshell bonded with a super soft fleece interior that shields you against cold and, if you’re pairing it with a short sleeve, feels great against bare skin. Omni-Shield advanced repellency wards off liquid droplets—weather they’re falling from the sky or your coffee mug. Waterproof zippers complete the picture. 3-point Interchange ability means you can attach this to your Columbia shell of choice for added insulation. Active fit.

Made by Columbia, this sleek, lightweight, active-fit winter coat for men is perfect for mild days on the mountain or just heading into town. The jacket's stretch softshell is bonded with a soft fleece interior that shields you against cold and feels great against bare skin. Omni-Shield advanced repellency and waterproof zippers help keep you dry. The three-point interchange enables you to attach the jacket to a Columbia shell for added insulation. This product is part of Columbia's Titanium collection, which blends innovative design, fabrics, and technologies with an active fit for intense activity.

Omni-Shield Advanced Repellency is a barrier that resists light rain and stains, keeping you clean and protected. This coated fabric resists all liquids below 170 degrees F from absorbing into the yarns and staining the garment. (The treatment has no noticeable effect on the feel of the material.) The fabric itself will also dry three to five times faster than untreated fabric and will not hold moisture like a conventional fabric, thus remaining lightweight even when wet.

• Omni-Shield advanced repellency
• Waterproof-breathable bonded softshell

  About Columbia Sportswear
  Founded in 1938, Columbia Sportswear Company has grown from a small family-owned hat distributor to one of the world's largest outerwear brands and the leading seller of skiwear in the United States. Columbia's extensive product line includes a wide variety of outerwear, sportswear, rugged footwear and accessories. Columbia specializes in developing innovative products that are functional yet stylish and offer great value. Eighty-year-old matriarch Gert Boyle, chairman of the board, and her son, Tim Boyle, president and CEO, lead the company.

  Columbia's history starts with Gert's parents, Paul and Marie Lamfrom, when they fled Germany in 1937. They bought a small hat distributorship in Portland, Oregon, and named it Columbia Hat Company, after the river bordering the city. Soon frustrated by poor deliveries from suppliers, the Lamfroms decided to start manufacturing products themselves. In 1948, Gert married college sweetheart Neal Boyle, who joined the family business and later took the helm of the growing company. When Neal suddenly died of a heart attack in 1970, Gert enlisted help from Tim, then a college senior. After that it wasn't long before business really started to take off. Columbia was one of the first companies to make jackets from waterproof/breathable fabric. The company introduced the breakthrough technology called the Columbia Interchange System, in which a shell and liner combine for multiple wearing options. In the early 1980s, then-60-year-old Gert began her role as "Mother Boyle" in Columbia's successful and popular advertising campaign.

  The company went public in 1998 and moved into a new era as a world leader in the active outdoor apparel industry. Today, Columbia Sportswear employs more than 1,800 people around the world and distributes and sells products in more than 50 countries and to more than 12,000 retailers internationally.
