Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Relaxed Fit Hoodie

I bought this shirt recently, after buying one for my daughter, and love it. However, I am not thrilled with the zipper. It is a real challenge to zip this shirt. I still wear it, just have to work at getting the zipper to work.

Love the feel of the flannel, high quality. Jacket runs a little big.

I've been wanting a new red buffalo plaid flannel shirt and I love hoodies. This purchase gives me both! It's made with wonderful fabric and fits well, but I struggle with the zipper (which is why 4 stars vs 5). Material at the bottom of the zipper makes it difficult to put the sides together it's sewn really close to the zipper, which makes it difficult to connect the zipper parts. I also have some difficulty zipping the zipper. I'm willing to exchange it, butI can't help but wonder if all the shirts are sewn like this. I love it and don't want to give it up entirely! One additional thought, it really is a bit more jacket-like than shirt-like (e.g., the entire bottom edge is reinforced).

Really fantastic and great! The only thing keeping it from being 5 stars is that the extra large front pockets tend to "roll in on themselves" after heavy movement. It's a small thing, but maybe something that could be improved upon later!

Great shirt, the second one I have purchased. Item gets 5 stars, price gets 3. Curious as to why I paid $79.00 and shirt arrived with a price tag that read $69.00? It was not a sale tag, it was the original tag.

Love this jacket while standing up. However zipper is stiff and I feel the need to unzip it when I'm sitting.

Love the shirt, the colors and the fit; its a pity it is not lined so have to wear a light sweater underneath if outdoors. Will recommend.

Great flannel hoodie BUT the arm length was too short. I ordered petite. I have many mock and turtlenecks. I work in them and don't mind pushing the sleeves back. If I order regular I know the body length will be too long. I'm sad because I really liked the shirt.

I love this pattern, I did forget to upsize once, as it fit perfectly with give, but then I washed it, and not its a little too tight. Recommend to buy one size larger, still fits, but its a little tight in the armpits. Still keeping it as it is a great light weight jacket.

Love the color, pockets, hood and easy on off. Zipper is a bit complicated.

Fits well, is very well made and pockets easy to use. I think I was imagining that it would be a little fuzzier or thicker but overall I'm happy with it and would recommend it.

This hooded flannel sweatshirt arrived quickly and just in time to add an extra layer to combat the wind and chilly temps in Wisconsin. I am 5'2, top heavy, ( 38DD) and I weigh about 150 pounds. I ordered Petite Large. The fit is perfect, especially the sleeve length ! The tab on the zipper is covered in leather, which gives this top a classy look. The color is exactly as pictured. This is the only hooded top in my coat closet. I'm sure it will get lots of wear ! I can wear it by itself ( indoors or outside on cool days), but the fabric is also thin enough that I can use it as a layer under other winter garments. It is slightly heavier than a standard flannel shirt.

I love this flannel shirt/coat, it could be either one. It does shrink in the wash though so buy a size up

Lightweight great for layering. The colors were exactly as shown.

Nice and soft and feels like a cozy blanket, though the cut is a tad boxy. Zipper is very nice quality. Petite XS fits well and I am 4' 10", 97 lbs.

I love pretty much everything buffalo check,and this was really a cute shirt, but it was a lot more of a short waist than I like. I was hoping for a bit heavier fabric and something to wear over another shirt, but it's pretty lightweight. Fit was good but for the price, the overall feel was not the quality I was looking for.

The fit of this zip hoodie is great! The only issue is the zipper which is hard to get started because of the way it is sewed. Overall I am happy with this purchase.

Very comfortable. Lightweight, yet warm. Perfect for these fall days!

It's really nice just wish it was a little longer.

Very nice material, well made. I like the length of the medium but too bulky (even with a sweater underneath) in middle when sitting, bunches up a lot. Small is considerably shorter, more like a petite. Will probably return for small, a compromise

This is more like a light jacket than a shirt. Thick, a little stiff, even after washing. It seems to be made well but I was looking for something that was more like a shirt.

Love this flannel! The zipper is super convenient. Overall comfy!

This is a beautiful piece, but like another Bean scotch plaid hoodie I have (a sherpa-lined one), the zipper seems too long for the fabric length. As a result, the front kind of bunches up when I sit, and sticks out when I stand.

Beautiful color fits well except for at the base is kind of boxy and looks a little bit sloppy.

It is just the right weight and I like it. What I don't like was the way it was packaged. I bought one color, and returned it for another color. It was out of stock, and Zappos notified me when it was back in stock. I ordered it and it arrived yesterday in a deeply wrinkled ball, zipper unzipped, obviously a return stuffed in a bag. That's okay, but can you please check it and at least fold it and make it look like I just paid $70 for it? Quality control please.
