Description: COLM Columbia Sportswear November 09, 2025

Columbia Sportswear Company (NASDAQ: COLM) designs, develops, markets and distributes outdoor, active and lifestyle products across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Its portfolio includes apparel, accessories and equipment for activities such as hiking, trail running, snow sports, fishing and hunting, as well as a broad footwear lineup ranging from technical hiking boots to casual lifestyle shoes.

The firm reaches consumers through two primary channels: a wholesale network of independent specialty stores, sporting-goods chains, department stores, internet retailers and international distributors; and a direct-to-consumer (DTC) network that comprises branded retail and outlet stores, temporary clearance locations, employee-only shops, brand-specific e-commerce sites and shop-in-shop concepts. Columbia markets its products under four brands: Columbia, Mountain Hardwear, prAna and SOREL.

Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue was approximately $4.6 billion, with a 12 % operating margin, and DTC sales grew about 15 % year-over-year, outpacing the slower-growing wholesale segment. The outdoor-apparel sector is being buoyed by rising consumer discretionary spending on recreation, yet remains sensitive to inflation-driven cost pressures and supply-chain disruptions.
