Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Rugged Ridge Parka

I bought the Rugged Ridge Parka in December 2025, and not long after, Maryland was hit with a six-week cold snap. I wore it on my daily 3-mile morning walks in temperatures down in the teens, and it kept me perfectly warm. The coat and hood fit just right. At 6'3" and 205 lbs, I went with a large tall. It's probably the best winter coat I've ever owned.

My husband loves this coat. His last one from LLBean lasted a long time and is excellent for brutal winters and icy winds off Lake Superior!

This parka is awesome. I like it so much, I've purchased twice. The original was purchased several years ago and was a little big on me. I've since lost weight, so it became really baggy so I decided to buy a new one in a smaller size. The original is still in great condition. The new one seems just as good in construction and materials, so always nice to see when a great product isn't tweaked for no reason. Would definitely recommend this coat to anyone needing a very warm parka.

Warm and pretty. A ton of pockets! I can walk the dog and be comfortable with my tush covered

I had bought an all blue version and proclaimed it the best winter coat ever! Then I lost it. Thank heaven you had another coat that is very similar. So now I have a new best ever coat.

Excellent quality and good fit. Great coat for cold, wet, rainy days.

This is the second winter season with this jacket. I wear it during my walks. It is very warm and definitely water-proof.

Bought this for my husband. It fits perfect and he loves the warmth it provides. Win, win!

Product was excellent however, had to return do to size. Thank you.

Husband loves the jacket. Perfect for the snow and keeping warm

This jacket is as described in being very warm without bulk. It is extremely windproof. I spent several cold, windy days in Yellowstone National Park in February and this jacket was excellent. It is going to replace two older winter jackets!

Warm and very wind proof. Large inside pockets are great for gloves and hats. I have not experienced the zipper issues others have noted in other reviews.

My daughter surprised me with this jacket. In NJ we've had many days with temperatures down to zero. The windchills are nothing I've ever experienced even after several years living in New England. Do I ever love this jacket! It is perfect for the weather we are experiencing. If I was younger I'd use it to do snow angels!

I purchased this Men's Rugged Ridge Parka early last month and is well made, water proof and warm. I find it to be a good parka for the cold New England winter.

I love this Men's Rugged Ridge Parka. It is warm, light weight, and comfortable.

With below zero degrees F wind chills for over two weeks, this coat does the job splendidly. The hood comfortably cinches around my head. Great work!

Comfortable weight coat; felt comfortable in 6F, breezy conditions in Minnesota.

Warm, great zipper and Pockets. Don't need a scarf. Great color and Length

Good quality and fit, warm coat, good value, ample pockets

I bought this for my husband to ski in. He loves it!

Excellent jacket! It has been great in this cold weather!!

By far this is the warmest coat I have ever purchased. It is -14 here this week in Chicagoland. Comfortable walk to pick up lunch wearing my new coat and feeling like I looked good even though no one else was outside.

Perfect fit. Functional design. Great look. Very comfortable.

I wore my recently purchased parka while shoveling snow and was comfortable & warm.

Excellent comfortable coat. Fits well and very warm.
