Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Rugged Ridge Parka

Excellent design, including outstanding, draft free neck and chest protection. Lightweight yet very good core warmth and adequate sleeve insulation with ease of movement. Relaxed fit provides plentiful room for head covering under hood and a warm vest or sweater if needed. Have been comfortable in parka without layer to 20 degrees wind chill and with zippered down vest to zero degrees wind chill (our coldest day so far.) Pockets fine for gloves. And very good looking as well. I highly recommend.

Exactly as described, true to size and warm. I understand why it's a year to year favorite. Purchased for my son and he loves it.

Rugged Ridge Parka: Color: Fatigue Green/Black This coat is quite handsome on my son and has room to spare for layering which is what I wanted for him. The coat length and sleeves are perfect as are the spacious pockets. Love the two way zipper, placket closure and adjustable waistband. Very professional looking coat! In Michigan's fridge cold temps, an additional layer is necessary. Works well with Windproof Wool Glove, I recommend the color Charcoal.

Very warm, zipper does not jam up on any of the jacket's material, unlike other jackets I have had in the past. I like the inside pockets, and the hand pockets are large enough for good winter gloves and your hands. I rate this jacket a 5-star review, would recommend a few more inside pockets for convenience.

My dad was looking for a jacket with zippers and that why I bought this jacket

Great Jacket for WI winter. My husband loved it. It was true to size, he purchased an XL and is 6' and 220lbs. It fit him well in the shoulders, was the prefect length and zipped up with no issues. It kept him warm in -10 degree weather when he visited our daughter this winter.

this parka was rated WARMEST but doesn't measure up to an old one purchased from LLBean about 30 years ago

Might be the best winter coat I've ever had. It's warm and comfortable. The only issue I can think of is that occasionally the zipper gets stuck when first staring to zip it up, but if you pay attention it's not a big issue.

I bought this for my son...He is so happy with it and never stops thanking me for it. The condtruction, the pockets...everything has a place. He has short arms, but the velcro on the cuffs makes it easy to adjust for a comfortable fit. Thanks LL BEAN for keeping with something that does not change, a good warm, multi-use coat that works

Great jacket: typical LL Bean. I've been buying LL Bean since the 70s

Warm without being too hot. Excellent construction. Love this coat!

I really like the fit , light and warm really breaks the wind

Replaced an older LLBean parka that I had worn for many years and was still very serviceable and very warm. I needed something that was lighter weight and less bulky and this new parka met all my expectations. Very comfortable and much easier to move around. Feels slightly less warm than my older parka but is more than adequate for most winter days here in Southwestern Pa. Very satisfied with this latest purchase from L.L.Bean.

Excellent, well thought out Winter Jacket. Plenty of pockets, nifty double zipper, warm with just a t-shirt underneath in 20-degree weather.

The parka is very warm, stops the wind. Fits as stated.

My husband bought this for ice fishing. Absolutely loves this parka. He would highly recommend.

This is a very well made coat! Fit is true to size. I am 5'9' 185 lbs. Gettysburg, PA 17325

I got this coat for my husband for Christmas and it's perfect. The sizing was spot on- M fits great at 6 ft and 175 lb. He's thrilled with the way the sleeves fit nicely on his longer arms too.

I've only had this parka for about one month, but it's clearly one of the most comfortable winter jackets that I've ever worn. It's lightweight and has performed well so far in temperatures of as low as 13 degrees Fahrenheit. The two way front zipper is a real plus, especially when driving a vehicle while wearing the parka. Contrary to many reviews I read before purchasing, the zipper "action" has been fine so far. The parka seems well made with plenty of well placed pockets for things like gloves and cell phones. I really like it- it was well worth the price I paid.

Lightweight, low profile and very warm. Great jacket!

It is 13 degrees in St. Louis and I am so warm and love this coat.

This parka has earned a top recommendation for a good reason. The overall design, quality of materials, and craftsmanship are all excellent and at an amazing price. The fit is roomy so you can layer underneath, the sleeves have inner cuffs to help seal out snow & cold, there are pockets for just about everything. The hood has multiple adjustment points for a perfect fit, and the color selection is great. The entire inside surface has near-zero friction material so this parka will never bind or constrict your movements. The only negative I can mention is the hook and loop closures on the main zipper storm flap can catch on your gloves, scarves or clothing, so I'd prefer old fashioned snaps. In the end this is a 5-star parka you'll enjoy from the first time you slip it on.

Super warm, extreme weatherproof and perfect size.

Very Nice Coat for the Winter. I love the Color and the weight of the coat

This thing is so very warm and cozy. Seems really well made. Can't wait to give it a work out in the snow.
