Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis Of Presentation And Organization	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the management of Columbia Sportswear Company (together with its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which it maintains a controlling financial interest, the "Company") and in the opinion of management include all normal recurring material adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 , and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . The December 31, 2016 financial information was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . A significant part of the Company’s business is of a seasonal nature; therefore, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for other quarterly periods or for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company, however, believes that the disclosures contained in this report comply with the requirements of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Columbia Sportswear Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and entities in which it maintains a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Some of these more significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, including sales returns and miscellaneous claims from customers, allowance for doubtful accounts, excess, slow-moving and closeout inventories, product warranty, long-lived and intangible assets, goodwill, income taxes and stock-based compensation.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Topic 606 , outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The updated guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company expects to adopt the standard on January 1, 2018. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or through a cumulative adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance in the year of adoption. The Company plans to conclude upon its transition method during the second quarter of 2017 and is in the process of evaluating the new standard against its existing accounting policies, including principal and agent considerations, timing of revenue recognition, and balance sheet classifications, to determine the effect the guidance will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities , an update to its accounting guidance related to the recognition and measurement of certain financial instruments. This new standard requires equity investments that are not accounted for under the equity method of accounting to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in net income and also updates certain presentation and disclosure requirements. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2018 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases previously classified as operating leases. The new standard will become effective beginning with the first quarter of 2019 using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this guidance and expects the adoption will result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheets and will likely have an insignificant impact on the Company's consolidated statements of operations. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The pronouncement changes the impairment model for most financial assets and will require the use of an " expected loss " model for instruments measured at amortized cost. Under this model, entities will be required to estimate the lifetime expected credit loss on such instruments and record an allowance to offset the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, resulting in a net presentation of the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2020. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfer of Assets Other than Inventory , which requires the recognition of the income tax effects of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs, eliminating an exception under current GAAP in which the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers are deferred until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use. Income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of inventory will continue to be deferred until the inventory has been sold to a third party. The Company expects to adopt this standard when it becomes effective during the first quarter of 2018, and plans to apply the required modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings of the previously deferred charges. The Company anticipates it will result in increased volatility in our effective income tax rate. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairments by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. Under this new guidance, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment charge shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The new standard will become effective during the first quarter of 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact and expects the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to affect the amount and timing of future goodwill impairment charges, if any.

Share-based Compensation [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company’s Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") allows for grants of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and other stock-based or cash-based awards. The majority of all stock options and restricted stock unit grants outstanding under the Plan were granted in the first quarter of each fiscal year. Stock compensation is recognized based on an estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense consisted of the following (in thousands): Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Stock options $ 1,004 $ 972 Restricted stock units 1,937 2,101 Total $ 2,941 $ 3,073 Stock Options The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes model. Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the exercise price of the award, the expected option term, the expected stock price volatility of the Company’s stock over the option’s expected term, the risk-free interest rate over the option’s expected term and the Company’s expected annual dividend yield. The following table presents the weighted average assumptions for stock options granted in the periods: Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Expected option term 4.34 years 4.36 years Expected stock price volatility 28.95% 29.70% Risk-free interest rate 1.70% 1.14% Expected annual dividend yield 1.30% 1.20% Weighted average grant date fair value $12.73 $13.03 During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company granted a total of 455,342 and 389,186 stock options, respectively. At March 31, 2017 , unrecognized costs related to outstanding stock options totaled approximately $10,424,000 , before any related tax benefit. The unrecognized costs related to stock options are amortized over the related vesting period using the straight-line attribution method. Unrecognized costs related to stock options at March 31, 2017 are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.87 years . Restricted Stock Units The Company estimates the fair value of service-based and performance-based restricted stock units using the Black-Scholes model. Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of restricted stock units include the vesting period, expected annual dividend yield and closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The following table presents the weighted average assumptions for restricted stock units granted in the periods: Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Vesting period 3.91 years 3.90 years Expected annual dividend yield 1.31% 1.16% Estimated average grant date fair value per restricted stock unit $52.40 $56.02 During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company granted 233,175 and 175,938 restricted stock units, respectively. At March 31, 2017 , unrecognized costs related to outstanding restricted stock units totaled approximately $20,609,000 , before any related tax benefit. The unrecognized costs related to restricted stock units are being amortized over the related vesting period using the straight-line attribution method.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share ("EPS") is presented on both a basic and diluted basis. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. A reconciliation of common shares used in the denominator for computing basic and diluted EPS is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, used in computing basic earnings per share 69,606 69,441 Effect of dilutive stock options and restricted stock units 808 1,014 Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding, used in computing diluted earnings per share 70,414 70,455 Earnings per share of common stock attributable to Columbia Sportswear Company: Basic $ 0.52 $ 0.46 Diluted $ 0.51 $ 0.45 Stock options and service-based restricted stock units representing 760,003 and 425,248 shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, were outstanding but were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their effect would have been anti-dilutive as a result of applying the treasury stock method. In addition, performance-based restricted stock units representing 42,524 and 98,648 shares of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, were outstanding but were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because these shares were subject to performance conditions that had not been met. Common Stock Repurchase Plan Since the inception of the Company’s stock repurchase plan in 2004 through March 31, 2017 , the Company’s Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of $700,000,000 of the Company’s common stock. Shares of the Company’s common stock may be purchased in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares or to acquire shares over any specified period of time. As of March 31, 2017 , the Company had repurchased 21,609,092 shares under this program at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $559,522,000 . During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company repurchased 616,152 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $33,000,000 . During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company did not repurchase any shares of the Company's common stock.

Segment Information	SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company has aggregated its operating segments into four geographic segments: (1) United States, (2) Latin America and Asia Pacific ("LAAP"), (3) Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and (4) Canada, which are reflective of the Company’s internal organization, management and oversight structure. Each geographic segment operates predominantly in one industry: the design, development, marketing and distribution of outdoor and active lifestyle apparel, footwear, accessories and equipment. Intersegment net sales and intersegment profits, which are recorded at a negotiated mark-up and eliminated in consolidation, are not material. Unallocated corporate expenses consist of expenses incurred by centrally-managed departments, including global information systems, finance and legal, executive compensation, unallocated benefit program expense and other miscellaneous costs. The geographic distribution of the Company’s net sales and income from operations are summarized in the following table (in thousands) for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Net sales to unrelated entities: United States $ 333,184 $ 336,245 LAAP 118,344 101,801 EMEA 55,334 51,329 Canada 36,931 35,761 $ 543,793 $ 525,136 Segment income from operations: United States $ 62,642 $ 66,292 LAAP 19,808 14,167 EMEA 1,324 1,259 Canada 5,827 3,859 Total segment income from operations 89,601 85,577 Unallocated corporate expenses (41,596 ) (41,312 ) Interest income, net 955 491 Interest expense on note payable to related party (249 ) (264 ) Other non-operating expense (53 ) (375 ) Income before income taxes $ 48,658 $ 44,117

Derivative Instruments and Hedges, Assets [Abstract]
Financial Instruments And Risk Management	FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT In the normal course of business, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows are routinely subject to a variety of risks. These risks include risks associated with financial markets, primarily currency exchange rate risk and, to a lesser extent, interest rate risk and equity market risk. The Company regularly assesses these risks and has established policies and business practices designed to mitigate them. The Company does not engage in speculative trading in any financial market. The Company actively manages the risk of changes in functional currency equivalent cash flows resulting from anticipated non-functional currency denominated purchases and sales. Subsidiaries that use European euros, Canadian dollars, Japanese yen, Chinese renminbi or Korean won as their functional currency are primarily exposed to changes in functional currency equivalent cash flows from anticipated U.S. dollar inventory purchases. The Company's prAna subsidiary uses U.S. dollars as its functional currency and is exposed to anticipated Canadian dollar denominated sales. The Company manages these risks by using currency forward and option contracts formally designated and effective as cash flow hedges. Hedge effectiveness is generally determined by evaluating the ability of a hedging instrument’s cumulative change in fair value to offset the cumulative change in the present value of expected cash flows on the underlying exposures. For forward contracts, the change in fair value attributable to changes in forward points is excluded from the determination of hedge effectiveness and included in current period cost of sales for hedges of anticipated U.S. dollar inventory purchases and in net sales for hedges of anticipated Canadian dollar sales. For option contracts, the change in fair value attributable to changes in time value are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and included in current period cost of sales. Hedge ineffectiveness was not material during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . The Company also uses currency forward contracts not formally designated as hedges to manage the consolidated currency exchange rate risk associated with the remeasurement of non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities by subsidiaries that use U.S. dollars, euros, Swiss francs, Canadian dollars, yen, won or renminbi as their functional currency. Non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, receivables, payables and intercompany loans. The gains and losses generated on these currency forward contracts not formally designated as hedges are expected to be largely offset in other non-operating expense, net by the gains and losses generated from the remeasurement of the non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The following table presents the gross notional amount of outstanding derivative instruments (in thousands): March 31, December 31, March 31, Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges: Currency forward contracts $ 233,500 $ 206,000 $ 228,500 Derivative instruments not designated as cash flow hedges: Currency forward contracts 168,361 184,940 60,785 At March 31, 2017 , approximately $6,081,000 of deferred net gains on both outstanding and matured derivatives accumulated in other comprehensive income are expected to be reclassified to net income during the next twelve months as a result of underlying hedged transactions also being recorded in net income. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified to net income are dependent on U.S. dollar exchange rates in effect against the euro, renminbi, Canadian dollar and yen when outstanding derivative contracts mature. At March 31, 2017 , the Company’s derivative contracts had a remaining maturity of less than two years. The maximum net exposure to any single counterparty, which is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain of all contracts with that counterparty, was less than $3,000,000 at March 31, 2017 . All of the Company's derivative counterparties have investment grade credit ratings. The Company is a party to master netting arrangements that contain features that allow counterparties to net settle amounts arising from multiple separate derivative transactions or net settle in the case of certain triggering events such as a bankruptcy or major default of one of the counterparties to the transaction. Finally, the Company has not pledged assets or posted collateral as a requirement for entering into or maintaining derivative positions. The following table presents the balance sheet classification and fair value of derivative instruments (in thousands): Balance Sheet Classification March 31, December 31, March 31, Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges: Derivative instruments in asset positions: Currency forward contracts Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 6,347 $ 9,805 $ 409 Currency forward contracts Other non-current assets 1,619 1,969 63 Derivative instruments in liability positions: Currency forward contracts Accrued liabilities 134 106 3,524 Currency forward contracts Other long-term liabilities — — 922 Derivative instruments not designated as cash flow hedges: Derivative instruments in asset positions: Currency forward contracts Prepaid expenses and other current assets 292 1,361 7 Derivative instruments in liability positions: Currency forward contracts Accrued liabilities 220 180 727 The following table presents the statement of operations effect and classification of derivative instruments (in thousands): Statement of Operations Classification Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Currency Forward and Option Contracts: Derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges: Loss recognized in other comprehensive income or loss — $ (1,438 ) $ (7,138 ) Gain reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income or loss to income for the effective portion Net sales 144 161 Gain reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income or loss to income for the effective portion Cost of sales 54 1,434 Gain recognized in income for amount excluded from effectiveness testing and for the ineffective portion Net sales 3 4 Gain recognized in income for amount excluded from effectiveness testing and for the ineffective portion Cost of sales 794 422 Derivative instruments not designated as cash flow hedges: Loss recognized in income Other non-operating expense (1,688 ) (1,554 )

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measures	FAIR VALUE MEASURES Certain assets and liabilities are reported at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, under a three-tier fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1 — observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active liquid markets; Level 2 — inputs, other than the quoted market prices in active markets, that are observable, either directly or indirectly; or observable market prices in markets with insufficient volume and/or infrequent transactions; and Level 3 — unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data available, that require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2017 are as follows (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 246,245 $ — $ — $ 246,245 Time deposits 90,927 — — 90,927 U.S. Government-backed municipal bonds — 64,189 — 64,189 Available-for-sale short-term investments (1) : U.S. Government-backed municipal bonds — 33,817 — 33,817 Other short-term investments: Mutual fund shares 653 — — 653 Other current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 6,639 — 6,639 Other non-current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 1,619 — 1,619 Mutual fund shares 8,443 — — 8,443 Total assets measured at fair value $ 346,268 $ 106,264 $ — $ 452,532 Liabilities: Accrued liabilities: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) $ — $ 354 $ — $ 354 Total liabilities measured at fair value $ — $ 354 $ — $ 354 Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2016 are as follows (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 299,769 $ — $ — $ 299,769 Time deposits 73,127 — — 73,127 Other short-term investments: Mutual fund shares 472 — — 472 Other current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 11,166 — 11,166 Other non-current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 1,969 — 1,969 Mutual fund shares 8,411 — — 8,411 Total assets measured at fair value $ 381,779 $ 13,135 $ — $ 394,914 Liabilities: Accrued liabilities: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) $ — $ 286 $ — $ 286 Total liabilities measured at fair value $ — $ 286 $ — $ 286 Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2016 are as follows (in thousands): Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Cash equivalents: Money market funds $ 147,379 $ — $ — $ 147,379 Time deposits 84,580 — — 84,580 Reverse repurchase agreements — 30,000 — 30,000 U.S. Government-backed municipal bonds — 3,999 — 3,999 Available-for-sale short-term investments (1) : U.S. Government-backed municipal bonds — 20,778 — 20,778 Other short-term investments: Mutual funds shares 449 — — 449 Other current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 416 — 416 Other non-current assets: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 63 — 63 Mutual fund shares 7,544 — — 7,544 Total assets measured at fair value $ 239,952 $ 55,256 $ — $ 295,208 Liabilities: Accrued liabilities: Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) $ — $ 4,251 $ — $ 4,251 Other long-term liabilities Derivative financial instruments (Note 10) — 922 — 922 Total liabilities measured at fair value $ — $ 5,173 $ — $ 5,173 (1) Investments have remaining maturities of less than one year.
