Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Classic Raggwool Cardigan Sweater Regular

Nice, substantial cardigan, generously sized and good fit (size large has arms long enough for my long-armed husband). A bit more teal than expected (thought it would be more blue-gray) but it's a strong, handsome color. Started to pill a little bit, but that's wool, right? My husband loves it.

Loose fitting, very warm. Wish for a button at the neck.

This is solid product. Nice and comfortable. But some of the finer details don't measure up to more expensive comparable items.

Overall it's a great 100% wool shawl sweater. Darker than the image but the grey color was immediately complimented. Wish for real horn buttons as the plastic cheapens the look but I can live with it. Wish the shawl collar was one piece rather than three pieces sewn together. I'm happy over all and it feels warm. Looks thinner in the image but you'll be happy that it's thick. Nice rugged pattern. Fits a little large but then again it's not advertised as a modern or slim fit. Nothing terribly baggy but expected or a bit roomy. Glad it wasn't a turn off for me. Nice deal.

Great for my husband. A tad bulky but comfortable.

This sweater is well made and soft but a heavy duty sweater. To heavy for our needs so returned.

Color is darker than shown. Fit and quality are great.

It's very warm and true to size. Not crazy about the collar. But I suppose that's a minor thing..classic cardigan all the way!

A bit too heavy. Otherwise, great quality and fit.

Appproaching age 80, I am now a geezer, and this is a great geezer sweater. It is warm, easily slipped on, comfortable and not bulky. I don't yet know how badly it will "pill," but that goes with the fabric and the style. I just plain like this sweater. It eases the arthritic aches in my shoulders and arms.

Very comfy. Shoulders/sleeves fit very well, looks and feels fantastic. I've got a 44 chest, 34 waist, and 34 sleeve. I've got broad shoulders and a reasonably shredded midsection (yes, bro, I lift), so I was quite happy that it wasn't billowy around the waist. It's a bit long for my taste, but that's my own dang fault for being short. Not a deal-breaker, though. Just keeps more of me warm and classy, I suppose. The buttons were a bit meh, but that is quite easily upgraded. For the price of this thing, I certainly can't complain. Worth every penny. Might need a second one (gets a wee bit cold here sometimes).

Since I am working from home in a cold office and "winter is coming" I wanted a warm cardigan type sweater. It is nice to wear around the house; Also have worn while doing quick errands. Only gripe is I wish the pockets were deeper or there was an inside pocket. When I have my cell phone in the pocket and bend over for something on the ground my cell phone always falls out.

Not the most stylish, but certainly hefty and warm ! It is part of my cold weather indoor ensemble, along with LL Bean slippers.

This model was not available in Tall sizes but I took a flier anyway, and I think it will work, I was looking for a substitute for a blazer/sport coat, and I'm hoping it will work. Received as a gift, but not yet worn.

The sweater was a little large at first, but I was able to carefully shrink it to the size I wanted. A great sweater otherwise!

Nice sweater but rather large. At 5'8" and 168 lbs, had to return medium.

I really love the look of this sweater. It fits great! BUT! I cannot stand to leave it on for more than a minute because it is so itchy. I will be returning it.

The sweater was great but had to return because sleeves were too long. If I'm not mistaken the sleeves were 34/35 I'm 32/33 size medium. I knew the sleeves were a little too long but I thought I would get lucky and would be alright but no luck. I love the look and feel has that Steve McQueen vibe to it. It would be great if the sizing team would rework the sleeve length or maybe make the cuff tighter ribbed style like on the signature fisherman crewneck. If the sweater sleeve length could be reworked I would consider rebuying.

I have two of these ragg wool sweaters and the men's small fits me well. I have the dark grey color which I love everything about and was the reason I purchased a second one in the tan color. However the tan sweater had an odor when it arrived. We previously raised sheep and think the wool smelled like the animal. I washed it multiple times including a wool wash and now I don't smell the odor much. Thought about returning the sweater but really like the gray one so decided to keep it.

This sweater is well made. However, it is extremely warm!

I have only needed to wear it one time so cannot give it a fair rating. It is not exactly the color I thought it would be but, that is alright. What I was shopping for was a sweater with a zipper front that I could wear with a jacket as all the doctors offices and the church are cold inside but a sweater could be added to cut the chill.

This is a nice sweater but no where comes near being a true XXXL-T. You need to be a model to where things that LL Beans makes in their sizing. And I'm only 6'4"/245 lbs, so my need to purchase everything in XXXl-T to make it fit, is a little strange.

High quality sweater with some fit issues - sleeves too long, buttonholes too small made buttoning sweater very difficult especially for an older person. Considering a return.

Too heavy of a sweater. I wanted to use around the house

This sweat is incredibly warm, hence the reason I didn't return it. It pills terrilby, similar to an acrylic sweater. I have a fabric shaver to remove them, I have to due so about once a week, or it looks awful. I've had other LLBean wool sweaters that didn't pill nearly as much as this one. I'm a bit disappointed, yet I love the warm of it.
