Whistler's Sudan Couloir, Corbet's at Jackson Hole, Mt. Baker's Hemispheres; so much vertical to check off your list and not nearly enough days off. The trip of a lifetime doesn't always include bluebird skies and balmy temps, though, so come prepared in one of our favorite Omni-Tech jackets. The Columbia Sportswear Titanium Blade Run ll Parka for Men is an ingenious combination of style, premium technical features, and crucial affordability. Columbia kept costs at a minimum with critical seam sealing; only reinforcing the seams on the chest, shoulders and arms where it truly counts; and by mimicking the luxe look and feel of softshell on the liner with a more economical smooth-face brushed fleece. However, Omni-Tech means this winter workhorse doesn't skimp on waterproof breathability. Like all of Columbia's Interchange jackets featuring removable, stand-alone liners, the Blade Run II delivers three coats for the price of one. Active fit.

Excellent jacket
I love my new Blade Run jacket. It is extremely warm and light weight and I love the ease of removing the fleece to turn it into a shell.

After Trial and error on a different jacket, this one is exactly what i wanted. Comfortable and warm with the chance of stopping the elemnts.

Awesome with one Exception
This coat has been awesome in all respects except for one...the main zipper. It has a double zipper down the middle and I have learned that it has to "click in" before you can zip it up. Other than that nothing gets in including wind and snow but it keeps you nice and warm. I also love the ease of removing the fleece when it starts to warm up. I highly recommend it!
