Why We Love This Deal
Columbia is coming up on 90 years as one of the OG American outdoor brands, and while it may not have the same fashion appeal as labels like The North Face, it continues to create some of the most reliable outdoor clothing you can get. This shacket is certainly no exception, and it’s 65% off at Backcountry.
If you take advantage of Backcountry’s fall sale, you can get the $70 Columbia Steens Mountain Printed Shirt Jacket II for $25. Only one colorway, Collegiate Navy Omblur, is available as part of the discount, and sizes are going quickly.

Shackets are a blend of the warmth of a jacket with the look/feel of a shirt, and this Columbia shacket is a model example. It’s made entirely of soft polyester fleece that retains heat, with a snap front closure to really lock it in. You’re getting two hand pockets on the side for extra warmth and storage, with a chest pocket for that classic flannel look. To make layering easier, this shacket has a regular fit with a slightly long center back, so you can use it as a top layer or a mid-layer with ease.
What Owners Are Saying
Shackets are meant to occupy this space between a heavy shirt and a lightweight jacket. This means you want something that acts as a solid mid-layer, and one reviewer confirmed it does just that: “It’s the perfect mid-layer and keeps me warm without looking too technical.”
The versatile weight and design also make this a great year-round pick. One owner said it works “great as a second layer option for early to mid-winter as well as spring.” The shacket just has a nice, clean look as well: “Along with being super stylish, the fit is spot on.”
With fall nearly here (and winter not too far behind), now’s a good time to grab cold-weather gear while it’s still being discounted, and the Columbia Steens Mountain Printed Shirt Jacket II is an absolute steal for $25. A few sizes are already out of stock, and considering that this is a trending item at Backcountry right now, you should grab one soon before they run out.
