Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Warm-Up Jacket

Really nice jacket, would have given it 5 stars except it ran very large.

Outside - good, ok and looks good. Inside NOT good - no inside pockets - not even one, so rarely can wear it. Not practical. Stays in the coat closet.

The large fits perfectly. I've worn these warm up jackets for many years. This one has a thermal lining that seems improved. Toasty.

It's just right blue color, easy comfort my favorites.

I affirm what many other reviewers have stated - some drop-offs from the historic version (stiffer, louder shell, thinner body fleece, lacking vertical entry interior pockets), but still a nice jacket for a reasonable price. About sizing: It is cut smaller than most LL Bean shirts / jackets. (I can usually wear size L from LL Bean, but needed XL for this one.) Other reviewers noted that correctly too. I like that the collar is still cut wide, so it can lay flat. I did not notice any issue with the waist band and cuff material that some noted.

Just what we were looking for. Exactly as described and love the green color

Bought this for my husband and he loves it. Its warm and comfortable. He wears a medium and the jacket was true to size.

The perfect jacket! I live in Idaho. Except for prolonged exposure situations this is my go to jacket. Also take it on trips all Ive the nation. Keeps me warm but not too much.

A tried and true friend... I had this same jacket sold by a competitor for nearly 20 years, my LLBean version is the same just a different color. It's a great coat when temps are above 40 degrees with a timeless but not outdated look.

Be cautious if you have a tall person as the length and sleeves run true to size, so you may need a tall.

Normally, my husband wears a 1X Tall. He is older, a senior and HAS lost weight. We had to jump into 2X Tall products for awhile. In trying all the different 2X Tall jackets this season, his only option was the 3X Tall. Your clothing has shrunk in size. Pretty soon we will truly be "Outsiders"; there will be no size left to accomodate us!! We have the means to buy your products, too!! I am experiencing the same problem too; I was wearing 1X and now I can only fit into 2X. 2X never seems to be readily available in the So. Windsor store.

Best all around jacket yet. Warm and light, plenty of room in the chest and arms. Zippers on the pockets and front are well made and the inside pocket is perfect for a cell phone. A great jacket for errands or walks. This is my second jacket of this type, my first was a gift from my wife in 2003! For those who do not like a bulky jacket, but are active outdoors this is perfect. I used this jacket for several months in the Mongolian outback. It was rugged and warm.

This well-designed jacket is very comfortable and warm. The main zipper and three pocket zippers are durable and high quality. The fit (Large) allows for easy take-on and off without binding in the armpits. And the fleece lined collar is an excellent feature.

This is my 5th warm up jacket. There is now better.

Love the jacket. On my third one over many years. Only issue is that the cuffs and waist trim are black on the blue coat. Was blue on prior coats. Please bring back the blue trim.

I purchased this jacket for my husband. It is his 4th warm up jacket from LL Bean. These jackets are warm, comfortable and fit well. The rib knit cuffs are the weak points of these jackets, as they fray and wear out after several years of wearing the jacket almost daily during Fall, Winter and Spring.

Water-repellent, not at all "waterproof". For me, it's quite warm. In fact, too warm for me in temps above 40F, especially if during anything but a gentle walk. Bought a "large" 4 yrs. ago. It was a bit snug. But this new jacket is an "extra large", but is almost the same fit. In this last six months, I've lost 11 #, so I am thinking that the sizing of these jackets (the fit) may have changed.

warm up jacket---like it but not as hefty or substantial as previous models. prefer old metal zipper versus new plastic. keep your quality, looks like you are starting to cut corners. river driver shirt--not nearly as hefty as previous models. Again, like your merchandise but have noticed a deterioration in your quality.

Very nice jacket. I think it may run just a little small, but it is very comfortable.

This is my go-to jacket for trips around town for a midwest winter. I recently purchase my 2nd jacket after 30 years. I have two critiques though that would make this a 5-star jacket for me. First, as others noted, the body length is cut short. I usually wear a regular jacket but the extra 2" in the body of the tall version (and inch in the sleeve) is just right so the knit band falls below the belt. My other issue is that the nylon shell has a hard finish. The shell material of the 1st jacket from years ago was supplex nylon that felt more like soft cotton than a hard nylon shell - I wish you would bring that back!

Sleeves on tall are a little short compared to other LL Bean talls

This is a good jacket. I got it in Navy, in my usual LLBean Tall XXL. The fit is fine, and the sleeve length and the warmth level are excellent. It washes and dries nicely, with no pilling, stretching, or shrinking. The only issue I have is that the zipper does not work flawlessly. It is rather sticky, and sometimes difficult to zip. Never impossible, and does not seem likely to break, but not smooth, so somewhat annoying.
