Columbia Sportswear
Columbia Sportswear was founded in 1938 as a hat dealer and has subsequently expanded to represent casual outdoor gear. The company designs and distributes a wide range of outdoor clothing, footwear, accessories, and equipment for men, women, and children. They're particularly notable in the budget category, with huge ranges of clothing and footwear that significantly undercut the competition. Their Watertight II rain jacket is a prime example: It has a sturdy, 2-layer design that can endure moderate precipitation and short jaunts on the trail with considerable comfort.
Columbia Sportswear is known for its cutting-edge technology, such as Omni-Shade, which provides sun protection, and Omni-Tech, which gives waterproof and breathable protection. The company's goods are functional, sturdy, and stylish, and are appropriate for a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, skiing, and fishing. Columbia items are available at its retail locations as well as through a network of approved retailers and e-commerce websites. In addition, the company has a strong online presence and provides a variety of services, such as free shipping and returns, product warranties, and customer support.
