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

The blue color of this sweater fleece jacket is extraordinary. As other reviewers commented, the pockets are white and show if the jacket is unzipped. The second issue, for me, with the pockets is that the polyester material used to form the pockets is not tactilely pleasant. I often have rough hands from gardening outdoors. My hands do not glide into the pockets of this sweater, they haltingly catch on everything. It is really annoying. Once I replace the pockets with a better color and material, all should be well.

Extremely warm. Great colors. Value. Fit is perfect.

I love it. Wearing it today. Plan on ordering another!

I purchase one of these lovely jackets for a Christmas gift for my sister every year. They are beautiful. They are nicely tailored and well made. They last a long time. The colors are lovely also. You will not be sorry if you purchase this product. The sweater knit is a little dressy.

Ordered this to wear at work in a hospital where it's pretty cold. I only wish I had ordered a size up. I am 5'7, 160 and the large is pretty snug. It's a good jacket though and a lot of people have bought one since they like the look of mine.

Excellent quality. Fits well. Great color. Glad to add it to my Wardrobe.

I ordered this sweater fleece jacket to wear under a mid-weight rain repellent 3/4 length coat that I purchased to wear on cold autumn days or mild winter days. The fleece jacket acts as a liner which enables me to wear the two together on 25-30 degree winter days. I am 5'6" and 125 pounds. The size M is a perfect fit for my build. It's slightly fitted which is very flattering when worn alone.

I love this jacket and have been wearing it all winter! I got an XL and its a little big on me but I think its sized appropriately. I wanted to make sure I had room to wear sweaters under it. Cozy and stylish! Love the Tall option!

This is a nice warm jacket. I love the blue color. One thing that is annoying about the jacket is that because it is fleece-lined including the sleeves I find it very difficult to get it on over a sweater or even a long sleeve knit shirt. The sleeves of the jacket dont slide over the sleeves of your shirt/sweater. They get stuck. And then everything gets bunched upand stretched out and your shirt becomes bulky and cumbersome. I think some silk-ish type sleeve lining would make this jacket perfect. When deciding what to wear I often skip over this jacket because it is a pain to get on.

i love this jacket but, like another reviewer, the zippers on both pockets broke..odd for an llbean product. the arm pocket seems fine but would love to be able to close the other two.

Warm and cozy! Great construction and styling, retains shape and color after many washings. Super warm without being bulky. I have purchased this in three colors now and I have been thrilled with every selection. LLBean quality in the best possible way...you won't be disappointed with the purchase. I give this item 5+ star rating!! :) My only comments (not negatives, but cautionary if you care...) is that in the dark plum with light pink trim, I have noticed that the light pink could get a bit soiled because it is light in color. Also, the pocket linings in the medium blue jacket is white (the lining in other ones I have is a dark color); the white lining just looks a bit weird if I leave the pockets unzipped (so I just make sure to keep them zipped). These two color comments would not prevent me from recommending in any way...just a 'heads up.'

I ordered petite small, sleeves were three (3) inches too long, and the body was two inches too tight around my middle. Loved the color & the fabric. I returned the product immediately, still waiting for my bean bucks credit. I LOVE LLBEAN products, almost every thing I wear. I also returned black med petite denim jeans, decided I will wear the three pair of LLBean blue jeans I own during the cold weather, don't need more jeans.

I loved this jacket when I saw it online and when it arrived in the mail. I had a similar LLBean jacket to this one for many years and loved it. Unfortunately, on the second day when I went to wear it, I saw that zipper had broken on one of the pockets. Zippered pockets are a must for me to keep keys, phone, wallet, etc. from falling out, and so sadly I returned this jacket.

It's as expected. I like the clean look of the sweater exterior. The fit is true to size.

I have several of these jackets - Love them. But won't be buying more right now because I do not like the placement of the LLBean label on the chest. It used to be (more appropriately in my opinion) at the hip. Please consider going back to that placement. Thanks,

very nice substantial fabric. Nice collar. Would like 1-2 inches longer, would be more flattering.

I am extremely pleased with my fleece sweater. Great quality and it fits me to a T. The petite length is perfect.

This was a Christmas gift from my daughter. I have always loved sweater fleece. It seems to be the perfect outer layer for many days in the winter in the south. We have a lot of years experience with L.L. Bean having lived up north also. One of the zippers on the side pocket broke after only wearing it two times and as always, they help me quickly turn around and receive a new one.

Love this jacket! I decided to buy a second one. The sizing, however, was not consistent! Darn. The brown raisin in large fit me perfectly so I ordered the field rose in large as well but it was huge and stretched out around the waist. I will return it and try again, hoping it was a defect. For reference I am 56 and 125 pounds. I like things to be a bit roomy for layering and the brown raisin fit perfectly! I hope the second field rose will fit well and the first one that arrived was a defect. I also did order the pullover in the same line and the large was also perfect!

I am thrilled with the raisin color, very flattering. Fit is perfect, nice weight. I will have years of use out of this sweater jacket!

The sizing is accurate. The jacket is nice and warm.

Love the color, the feel, all of the pockets. Gotten lots of compliments.

The arctic blue color is beautiful! The interior pockets are made with white lining, so if the pockets are unzipped or the jacket is not zipped up, the white color spoils the look of the whole outfit. My other jackets in the same style have black liners, and doesn't interfere with the overall look.
