Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Warm-Up Jacket

I was disappointed with the fit of the jacket this time. I have ordered this same jacket for 10+ years and had always ordered a men's large as it fit good with enough room not to be tight. However, when I tried the large size jacket this time, it was so tight I thought I had ordered a size small. So I decided to return it for an extra large. Now that one is way too big. So going to send that one back too. Just don't understand why they had to make the large size jacket smaller. Frustrating.

too small, ordered in several sizes and all unusable. Please make them like they used to be when they were awesome

All my LLBEAN jackets are 2XL Tall. I ordered this jacket in the same size 2XL Tall. Its is so small that i have to return it. A real disappointment.

very comfortable I weigh 170lbs I like the zipper pockets easy to put on and off

My husband loved this jacket. The color and fit were perfect. Unfortunately the jacket did not wear well. The knit on the sleeves and bottom began to fray and rip. Maybe he just got a lemon, but this was a huge disappointment. Sent a message about this to customer service and never heard back.

I bought this exact coat more than 15 years ago. It has held up well but frayed cuffs and a broken zipper pull finally persuaded me to replace it so I ordered a new one. I was printing the return label less than an hour after I received the package with the new coat. The outer material (shell) feels much thinner/flimsier. The outer material also makes a "crinkly" noise whenever it moves - the constant rustling noise would be an ongoing aggravation. The lining did seem comparable to the original. The windbreaker was on its way back to LL Bean hours after I received it. Yet another Bean classic which has unfortunately lost quality over the years. I guess we should blame the people who abused the old return policy, or current management for cutting corners. or both.

Very nice jacket. The pockets could be a little deeper, but other then that a nice jacket for the price.

i have been wearing this style jacket for about 10 years. This model has changed, the sizing is smaller, the inside pocked has been moved to a new place, overall, the fit is poor. i plan to return this jacket and find another brand

Bought a few of these coats over the past 20 years and love the fit and materials. Now, fit is tighter, material of outer shell has a "krinkly" sound to it, very aggravating. Not as insulated as earlier coats. LL Beans quality seems to have gone down hill in the past 7 (?) years.

The jacket is very handsome, and of top quality. However it did not fit me and is way too warm for Santa Barbara CA. Not the fault of the jacket. I'm 94 and difficult to fit.

we will be returning this. the recent cold snap of only 2 degrees exposed an issue with the other shell. it basically froze and it sounded like a frozen eco plastic bag while moving in the coat. I seriously expected the shell to crack into many pieces and fall out. after the coat warmed up in the car, it was better but I cant be sounding like a body size plastic eco bag everywhere outside during the winter.

I bought this jacket for my son this time because he has 5 others like it, just different colors. I started buying this jacket before it was a hundred dollars. I started with one and it just snowballed. My son loves that jacket. It's worth the money. It wears well, fits great, looks nice on and lasts a long time. I not only bought these jackets for my son but I bought 2 for my male friend of 18 yrs. Both wear this jacket all the time. I can't say enough about this jacket.

Poor fit 2xxl tall, was xl reg at best, returned item.

Not even close to the original jacket. Returned it.

The jacket is nicely made but poorly sized. My husband is a large man who routinely wears a 3XL, but this jacket was way too small, equal perhaps to an XL.

I buy this jacket every few years in a new color, and this year it has changed. Why llbean, why?! This was a perfect jacket. Now the fabric is plastic-like, and it makes noise when you move. The whole jacket is thin, the bottom band is tighter. It's just not the same jacket. The old style was so cozy and soft, thick and warm. This is so disappointing. If it ain't broke don't fix it. So sad. Have to find a jacket somewhere else now.

Poor fit. Tight across back at shoulders. Can't move arms well in it

I purchased this jacket at the LL Bean store in Colonie Center - New York. After a year, the right hand cuff developed a hole where it attaches to the sleeve. Disappointed in the quality.

Large is much too small despite being my usual jacket size.

Nice looking get nice complements plenty warm for a light jacket priced right

Such a disappointment. I should have listened to other reviewers who said this ran small. It was small/narrow throughout. Body length, sleeve length, just overall fit. My husband looked like he was stuffed into it. Mind you, he doesn't have any extra weight. We returned it and got a jacket elsewhere.

I have a great history with the high quality of LL Bean clothing and outerwear, but the introduction of this 3XL is horrendous. The fit is TERRIBLE. Who designed this? The fit on the top half is OK, but the bottom half is sized more for an XL. Couldn't even fasten it. Not even close! Not sure if the other coats are like this, but it cost me $6.50 in shipping return based on this serious disappointment.

I bought this jacket to replace a prior LLBean warm-up jacket of identical size, which was showing signs of wear and tear after more than a decade of frequent use. The older jacket still fits well, and I'm glad I haven't passed it along. The recent purchase does not fit well. The armholes are cut much too high and tight, and the collar, when zipped, reaches to my nose, not to the bottom of my mouth as does the older jacket. My preference re the inner pocket is for the older style, but I won't be wearing my recent purchase, so the point is moot. I have owned and frequently worn two LLBean warm-up jackets for about 30 years. Liked them both a lot. LLBean, what happened?

I buy XXL shirts from Bean and they fit fine. I bought the jacket in XXL and it was way TOO small. Could not zip.

The jacket did not fit right. It appears to have not been made according to U.S. standard size.
