The Columbia Sportswear Omni-Heat Technology Is Here

Columbia Sportswear is celebrating its revolutionary Omni-Heat technology, brought to life in its new “Warm Smarter” campaign.  Throughout Columbia’s 83-year history, the company has been focused on providing innovative technologies to help keep people warm and comfortable as the weather turns colder.  Since their debut, the tiny reflective Omni-Heat dots have unlocked the outdoors for millions of people.

Since its launch on October 10, 2010, Columbia’s patented technology has grown into one of the best-selling winter insulation technologies in the world. The secret lies in the little silver dots that reflect and retain the warmth your body generates.  Since its founding, Columbia’s innovation efforts have been awarded more than 200 families of patents, and the Omni-Heat technology remains a pinnacle technology in its portfolio.

Plummeting temperatures should not be the reason outdoor enthusiasts stay trapped in the house. The great outdoors has been described as the safest place to be during this pandemic, and Columbia is here to help everyone escape. Columbia Sportswear believes in making the outdoors available to everyone, and with their winter collection anyone can get out and explore the outdoors this winter.
