The company offers outerwear products for men and women under Columbia, Mountain Hardwear, Sorel, and Pacific Trail brands, as well as for youth under Columbia and Pacific Trail brands.

These products are used by mountaineering athletes and outdoor enthusiasts. The company’s footwear products include hiking and trekking boots, trail running shoes, and rugged cold weather boots for activities on snow and ice; sandals for use in amphibious activities; and casual shoes for everyday use. The company offers sportswear products for men and women under Columbia and Mountain Hardwear brands, and for youth under Columbia brand. Its sportswear products are designed to be worn as a layering system with its outerwear and footwear products during fall and winter outdoor activities, or individually during milder weather. The company offers Columbia-branded accessories and equipment, including bags, packs, headwear, scarves, and gloves; and Mountain Hardwear accessories and equipment, which include tents, sleeping systems, and backpacks. These products are designed for mountaineering, ultralight backpacking and camping.
