Does anyone know if this jacket would be warm enough for Germany in winter?

I don't know the temp in Germany in the winter.....however, my daughter wore it this past winter on a very snowy, cold college campus in Pennsylvania at she was warm. Temps in PA were below 20f many days.

I live in the Pacific Northwest... not too cold, but LOTS of rain. It is made out of water repellent canvas (not rubber)and quilted material underneath, so unlike the former respondent... I'd say, "Yes, it IS breathable", or it'd be WAY to warm to wear in our mild winters. I like this coat, and bought a second one so the first one can dry out on rainy days.

I'd say it would work very well. Just put a shirt on first because it get really cold!

I own this jacket, and my guess would be large, but I would look to the manufacturer's size chart to be sure. I bought mine too big based on reviews. However, the quality of this jacket is not very good. I would not recommend buying it. I now wish I had bought a more expensive one of better quality.

I consider this a three-season jacket. It's lightweight enough to wear in the spring and fall, and warm enough to wear in pretty cold weather. I live in southern Maine, if that gives you an idea. For really cold weather (below 25 F) I will usually wear something a little heavier and longer with a hood to cover my head and legs too, but this is pretty great for all but the coldest weather, I think.

It's an awesome jacket. Minnesota gets pretty darn cold so you'd probably want a layer under the jacket. May be a fleece.

I can say I was comfortable in this jacket with a long-sleeved t-shirt on underneath while boarding in a high of -2 F (not factoring in the wind chill I was making going down the slopes). I probably wouldn't count on it for too much lower than that, but it is surprisingly warm for how thin and light it is.

I live in the midwest and have worn this coat into temps down to -10, -25 with the wind chill. Without wind, keeping lightly active (walking my dogs), wearing layers beneath it, and staying out of the direct wind, I have been kept comfortably warm. If you are more active (skiing or snowshoeing) you should stay quite warm. The jacket does not block wind very well, so if you are in windy conditions I do not think it would be enough unless you wore some sort of windbreaker over it, but I'm not sure about trying to fit it under something else. I have worn a thick wool sweater under it without any problems.

All I can really say is that the jacket runs approx a size small. I usually wear a large but ordered X-Large and it fits perfect.I am about 20 lbs heavier than you and like I said the XL is perfect for me..I love the jacket ..It is beautiful and very warm. Just had -20 degree weather hereand it was nice and toasty..Love it.

Not to heavy. Warm enough to wear in 40 degree weather, but not in snow. Not as heavy as a "snow coat". Packs well for trips.

We live near Pittsburgh, PA. It gets cold very cold here some times in the single digits. When I used it for my granddaughter I never put anything underneath it, just the clothes she was wearing. I loved this for my granddaughter. I think you would be fine and wouldn't be disappointed in your purchase. If you are out for long periods of times like taking a walk ... I think you would need something else, but just going from your house to your car or your care into stores or taking to sitters you will be fine or even walking a few blocks. It is very warm inside.

Ah, I honestly don't know! I live in Las Vegas so I unfortunately don't get to wear enough. I bought it for my trip to Ireland which I took in march and it withstood the weather fantastically! At first I would wear xtra layers underneath but quickly found out it wasn't necessary! It would get hot quick! But it's a fantastic fantastic jacket that I wish I could wear more often! Hope this helps!

This is the best Columbia jacket I've ever owned. I absolutely love the material and it certainly keeps me warm in our -40 degree weather here in WY that we have some winters, like this one! It is a great coat all in all!!

It appears to be a standard BDU jacket. I think it would be ok for early spring and late fall weather. I don't think it is designed for severely cold weather.

I am sure it would work, but you would have to sew in the buttons. Just buy the German liner, it is zippered.
