Most people who prefer using high quality sportswear during their various winter outdoors activities will first consider either Columbia or North Face, two very popular brands that make a wide range of high quality apparel for various outdoors activities.
As both companies offer a wide selection of quality jackets, coats and parkas, it can be quite difficult to choose between the two brands and the various types of apparel they make, specially when some are quite similar in look and features. To help select the most appropriate brand that fits your taste and needs, this article will try to point out some of the differentiating points between the two brands and present you with our selection of the most popular Columbia and North Face women's jackets and parkas bought by Amazon customers. Columbia was established in 1938, as a hat distributor out of Portland, Oregon and ended up growing into a multi-million-dollar outerwear giant. On the other hand, North Face was first founded in 1968 in San Francisco as an equipment retail store for outdoors fans and grew up to become today one of the largest and most respected names in outwear. Though the clothes you wear should in general depend mostly on personal choice and fit, you might want to consider the following points before you decide between North Face and Columbia:
