Columbia Sportswear Ziggy Rollup Capri Review

Pin It


Columbia Sportswear is a well known name around here. I'm sure it may be the same around your house too. For us, it's a name we associate with style, comfort and quality. I've been a fan and purchaser of this brand since i can remember, even before i had a family of my own.

They recently came out with some new products for Spring 2010 and let me tell you, I had the hardest time deciding what I would get! After much consideration and pondering at the thought of geting something for The Man, the kids or myself, I of course won out in the end! Yay for me, right!



My choice were the lightweight Ziggy Rollup Capri in the Tank color. I figured they'd be perfect for Spring and all of the fun outdoor activities I can't wait to get to do again! I'm telling you, this cold winter is killing me! I am ready for the warm sunny days, green grasses and gorgeous blue skies! Here's a little bit of info about the Ziggy Rollup Capri:

These lightweight, super-stretchy capris shift easily from dance class to yoga mat to morning run with Rufus, but the versatility doesn’t stop there.
We give you the choice; cinch the drawcord at bottom hem for sporty-chic security, or roll it up to shorts and let the cool air flow. Omni-Dry® technology ensures quick-drying comfort when your core temp is kicking, while Omni-Dry® UPF 50 provides enough sun protection to be recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation. A radial gusset combines with 2-way comfort stretch for complete freedom of movement. Active fit.


My favorite feature about them is definitely the ability to switch from capri to shorts in an instant. i love that they look stylish either way. Comfort of course is always a factor and these definitely let me achieve that! They really feel great and lightweight. I have a feeling these are going to be packed in my camping bag every time we go this year! I think they'd be perfect for hiking or even just sitting around camp. The zipped pockets will keep all my stuff from falling out.

The drawstring at the bottom of the leg is great too. It gives a third way to wear them, by pulling them tighter. So I cam be comfy and stylish all at the same time!

Buy It!

I'm desperately needing new Capri's for summer, and these are so versatile. Plus, they can be dressed down or up - certainly a wise purchase!
Thanks for the intro, off to checkout what else they have!

These are SO cute... I would LOVE to get them in the Shale color because I am always getting myself dirty getting in and out of the car. I love the look both ways, too, either rolled up or down. You picked out a great pair - thanks for pointing them out to us. I can't wait to see you in them. I sure hope the weather warms up for you!! :-)
