Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Sweater Fleece Full Zip Jacket

5'11" 170lbd 40" chest the medium has way too much material around the waste and short in the arms. Please Make a slim /athletic cut of this sweater and other staples like the vest sweater please!!!

This is a superb indoor-outdoor sweater for autumn and spring, and it's very good for layering in winter. A small negative: to get the body-length I wanted I had to order a Tall. This meant the sleeves were too long (but they easily rolled up the necessary 2 or so inches). Also a little pricy but what isn't these days?

Looks good; feels good; nice fit. Not as heavy as it appears in photo.

Pretty decent fleece overall, heavy enough to provide warmth when it's chilly, and better than what I currently have. Much darker in color than it appeared online. Normally fit is very good from L.L.Bean, but the sleeves were too long. I had them taken up by a local seamstress.

Bought it to replace one that the zipper failed. Was not available with a hood like the last one but still great quality and fit. Great for the fall !!

The jacket is very nice and comfortable, the only thing i might change would be to line the inside sleeves, that way if you are wearing a dress shirt or anything long sleeve it doesn't pull up when you put on the jacket, otherwise it's a wonderful cut and design.

As others have noted, the sleeves run a bit tight, and for me that translated into tight shoulders as well. I went up one size and the sleeves and shoulders are now fine--I was told on the phone they are 1/2 inch wider for each increment in size. The fit of the rest of the jacket is now a bit baggy, but it's certainly a substantial fleece jacket and I have been happily wearing it. The inside pockets are a nice plus, and are one of the reasons I bought the jacket.

Fast delivery, well made, fit me almost perfect. Sleeves just a tad too long. Good YKK zippers. Has 2 inside pockets. Soft interior. Fabric could have been a little thicker. I had a Columbia fleece jacket that was cheaper and thicker fabric, but had cheap "no-name" zippers which failed. I will see if it gets softer after I wash it and see if it piles.

Purchased this jacket for a trip to Canada, and wore it while on the glaciers. A perfect jacket!

I liked the Quality and the price and it's LL Bean

Have not worn this enough to have a solid opinion but but it seems nice enough... would be nice if it had elastic on the sleeve cuffs...Seems as warm as I expected it to be... will find out next week as I'll be wearing it in Ecuador.

Fits well though a bit more snug than I prefer. I would like better if it fit a bit looser. Still, I like my jacket a lot.

Suggest ordering one size up. Sweater is quite fitted and narrow, especially in the sleeves. It is extremely tight in the sleeves. Whenever I would visit my son i would swipe his sweater from the coat closet hoping he wouldn't notice it was missing. I failed to get away with it since he always for it back at the gate! One of the reasons I bought this sweater was as a gift. The overall length is terrific but it still needs wider sleeves.

My husband is 5'10" and 145lbs. He usually wears a medium but this one was too large in the chest area. We exchanged it for a small and it fits perfect. Material is comfortable.

This man wears a M in nearly all shirts and sweaters, but this jacket was too short in the sleeves. Raced back to local LL Bean store and exchanged it for a L. The sleeves are good now but a MT would have been perfect. That size was not available in the store and I needed the jacket before I had time to wait for an order. He is VERY happy with it and is wearing it as I speak. Get the correct size and you won't find a better year-round jacket

Great quality. Warm. The collar is a little much for me but it is my personal preference

Super warm. Love the zipper pockets. Size L is a bit big for me. I tried M but that was too small. I am sticking with L because I like the sweater that much.

Nice fit, comfortable. But lets wind penetrate which can make it a little cold

Good jacket- good fit, warm, does'nt pill very quickly/

I wear it like a sweater in the house. Sure it will be useful in the spring. Love the pockets

I prefer a softer outer fleece but this jacket has been growing on me. The less soft outer shell does make it warmer and the inside is soft. I like the color; it is hard to find a good forest green.

Improved from previous model. The collar doesn't turn-up on one side as much and the surface doesn't look worn as quickly.

This is a good looking jacket; my husband looked great in it and liked it a lot. The onlny reason I didn't give it %100 rating was because it was kind of rough on the outside although nice and soft on the inside.

Great prefect, fit as promised. No issues. Highly recommend.

Just bought this jacket. Fits well and seems to be well made. Could rate a 5 if it holds up and doesn't pill. We'll see.
