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

Love this jacket ! perfect fit for a petite frame. The only thing that bothers me a little is the collar is a little too high. It keeps hitting me in the chin. Too bad I live in Florida and can't get more use of it.

Lake is a fabulous blue color. It's a nice jacket that fits well, but likely not with a thick winter sweater underneath. I dinged it one star as It's not windproof which is what I was hoping for with the different weave compared to the typical fleece jacket. Very nice looking jacket.

I ordered the XS and it was a little big through the shoulders

The blue color is great, and it is a warm and sturdy piece of outerwear. I ordered a long because my torso is long, and I'm glad I did. The cut is pleasing with a curved hem in the back. I marked it down because the sleeves are rather tight and are also quite long. I turn them up about 2 inches, but this detracts from the overall look.

Good quality, just too small for the missus. She is petite, between a medium and large. I will reorder.

Love it. Good fit, nice construction and details, warm. Size medium is perfect, 5'6", 125#. First time I had a pocket zipper on the arm. Relatively useless, because 2 hands are needed to open and close the zipper.

Very nice quality - just what I was looking for. Unfortunately the fit was not right for me - back tail too long.

Love it as a transition piece in the fall and an extra layer in the cold winter. The zipper pockets are great for keeping keys and cell phones protected.

LL Bean fleece sweater fits perfectly, also especially love it because it had hidden pockets on the inside of the sweater..

This is a perfect light jacket for fall days that are getting cooler but still warm enough to not want anything too heavy. It fits true to size (4'11, 95 lbs) and the color selection is very nice, I chose a neutral which goes with everything but the other options are very pretty in the store. My only complaints: I wish it was lined and I tried it in pink, same size, it had just a little more room in the arms which would be nice for a hacker Mayer underneath but I preferred this color; and I wish it wasn't t so expensive. I had a coupon so that helped but 100$ for a fleece is very high IMO. I feel it's generally worth it with this brand but still felt high, probably wouldn't have bought it without a coupon.

I'm 5'6 and 195# and the 1x is perfect, even a tad roomy. The XL was too snug. I find the jacket very snuggly warm until the wind blows. Then, like a sweater, the wind goes right through it, like you're not wearing a jacket at all. So I guess this jacket may have a use for me. It's flattering and the color is pretty. Maybe for long car rides in cooler weather when you'll only be walking from car to house?

I purchased this jacket awhile ago in a beautiful shade of blue that is no longer available. The jacket is very attractive and well made. The one negative is that there is no breast pocket as there is on the men's version. I realize that designers are very fashion conscious, however, having a breast pocket would be very convenient.

I bought it 2 years ago & still love it. I wish you would make it in black.

Really lovely warm sweater. Was not a fan of the bright green edging contrasted with the muted green spruce color so I sent it back

Love the jacket but I do not like being a walking advertisement for llbean with the brand name on the outside of the jacket! You have enough advertising and customers don't need to do it for you!

I love this jacket and own it in two other colors. I can't tell you how sad it made me feel when this one, in the same size as my other two, ran quite small. I want to exchange it for another one just like it with the hope that the next one would actually be the same fit as my other two. With shipping and returning costs I had to let go of that idea.

Very nice. I have purchased one every year for the last four years. The pocket zipper broke last year and that's my only complaint.

Very pretty, cooler/blue green will not pair with LL Bean green pants, which are a warm/yellow green.

The material is a bit stiff. Hope it will soften up with time.

It's beautiful and well made. But the sizing is a bit inaccurate. I think they need to call the XL a Large. I wear an XL comfortably. The XL in the jacket I got is XL, but couldn't even zip it up. Fortunately I wear most jackets, open, so will enjoy this pretty, well made jacket, open.

I am 6 ft 1in( wt=164#) female and have a difficult time finding clothing that's long enough--sleeves, lengths of garments--especially pants. I'm not husky so I do not need a big/tall size-only extra length. I was excited to find that LLBean now has tall sizes so ordered a tall medium--since I normally wear a size 12 tall or medium tall. The problem I encountered was that the Medium Tall in this jacket fit perfectly (sleeve length and overall length)IF I didn't wear a turtleneck shirt under this jacket in the late fall and winter. So I decided to order a large tall size--this turned out much too big through the chest and back. I returned once again to the store and bought a regular large. This is a bit short on the sleeves but it will do. I bought this jacket to wear during the next cold season--fall and winter in Maryland. I'm looking forward to enjoying this light blue cozy jacket that I wear around our house.

Good color and fit. Fabric quality is medium, but good outerwear for spring.

Cozy, can be layered, compact, great for travel, stylish for young and old

Loved the fit and style. I returned only because the collar was too stiff and would have preferred a relaxed collar that laid nicely. I purchased a neutral color to wear in an office environment to toss over what ever I was wearing because I'm always cold. Would have kept the sweater had it not been for the collar. I would still recommend as I'm sure the collar is made for outdoor wear.

Love the color and the zip pockets! I am between a petite medium & a petite large so I got the petite large. The collar sticks up more than I would like, but I can always tack it down if necessary. I also have it in off-white in a petite medium, I just leave it unzipped for comfort. Both are closet staples.
