The jacket exceeded expectations. The length is very much appreciated. The color is deeper and richer than pictured. The jacket fits well and is comfortable. Overall, a great jacket.

My husband loves LL Bean products and this jacket is one of the tops. He loved it! The XL Tall fit him perfectly and it is so well made it will last for years, and all those pockets and zippers...he's thrilled. So even though it was supposed to be a Christmas present, he got it early when it was pouring one day and he needed a good rain jacket. We're some of your best customers and love all your products! Thank you for all the well-made and beautiful items you create for us!

My husband just got this jacket. The winter hasn't really begun, so we can't review based on warmth factor. Things he likes... the sleeves are perfect for his long arms and have a nice inner microfiber cuff with the velcro tightener on the outside layer, the jacket is very lightweight and it is long enough to cover his behind, and he loves the color combo (graphite)

Bought this coat for a trip to Iceland in October 2021. Wore it daily while we were there, and it held up against the temperatures, wind, and rain each day. Very happy with this coat!

I bought this for my son last year and he outgrew it. He likes this coat so much, he wanted the exact coat in a larger size. It is warm, yet very lightweight.

Super versatile and especially good for commuters - it's very breathable and makes transitioning from outdoor cold to indoor heating less unpleasant. It does not provide the same kind of cozy warmth that a wool or cotton jacket would, but I haven't felt actively cold either - the jacket manages to keep your body temp in a sweet spot most of the time.

This jacket was an unexpected find! It is super comfortable and lightweight, perfect for keeping the chill off. Rain just rolls off it.

Perfect jacket, warm, packable, waterproof, and plenty of pockets and a hood, just what I was looking for in a jacket!

I was asked to write a review. This is a great jacket. The material is a nice new material which should not be hot and sticky like other materials.
I am a woman who hikes in all kinds of weather. I layer clothes as needed and when needed.
I have rain jackets but none with a little insulation and rains do get cold in spring and fall.
Women's did not have the pockets I wanted and I wanted a little longer sleeves and tail. These are all common complaints of women's clothing.
I hope the shoulders hold up to regular back/day pack use.

This has to be the best jacket that I've ever bought for myself. It's comfortable, lightweight, good-looking and can pack away into itself into a small, travel pillow-sized rectangle when I'm hiking/camping and need to put it away. All the pockets are lined, and it even has a large media pocket toward the bottom on the inside that I use to tuck my gloves into on cold days. It's completely waterproof, while not making noise or looking like a raincoat. The only suggestion I would make to improve it and make it absolutely perfect would be to add a two-way zipper, so that it can be unzipped slightly from the bottom when I'm driving or sitting for prolonged periods. The zipper used is waterproof though, so it doesn't require a placket to cover it, making it much easier to zip and unzip the jacket quickly. I hope they continue to offer these for a long time, so that I can buy another one someday if this one wears out. I may just buy another now and store it away for that purpose.

This is a fantastic lightweight jacket with the added bonus of comfort and being 100% waterproof. The weather here in central Pennsylvania changes drastically from day to day, and this jacket is great for all conditions. I also love that it is easily stowed into itself for easy packing in a small backpack. Highly recommended!

I have used this jacket both for skiing and snowmobiling and I love this jacket. Fits great, keeps me warm and the elements out. I have used this jacket on below 30 degree days and colder and I was warm. This jacket is more of a shell, which is what I wanted, so I do layer underneath. For the price, I am extremely happy with my purchase. I would definitely recommend this jacket, and very glad I purchased it.

These coats are very light weight and so very warm. They have replaced bulky down jackets. I have two and my husband has two. If I were to make any changes at all, it would be to offer grey in women's and have the zipper unzip from both top and bottom.

Good fit, very warm and of course waterproof. Like the hood because I have a long neck and it fits just fine. Very pleased with the item.

I enjoy wearing this coat. It's light as a feather but warm as toast. Water repellancy is impressive, not being a plastic type of fabric. If I had one thing I'd change, it would be hood storage loops. Having the hood out all the time is kind of bogus.

This jacket will work perfectly when it gets too cold for a sweater. I was surprised it held up well while shoveling snow around 15 degrees calm wind, stronger winds I will be changing back to my winter coat.

It fit him well. Warm enough that he does not have to wear extra layers in our Seattle wet winter weather. And he stays dry. So, for him, it is a win-win. He decides to go walk his 4-5 mile walks/day and he just puts on this raincoat that keeps him warm. Stepping out of the house without anguishing about layers. Keeps him dry enough, too.
He does have to anguish about whether/not to don rain pants, tho

My husband owns several LL Bean jackets and for Christmas I wanted to get him something new. I started with a barn coat from another company. That went back. Together we shopped for a replacement at LL Bean. This jacket was selected because it is waterproof and has thin insulation. The jacket came this week and he is thrilled! While taking our dogs out day and night in a variety of weather conditions my husband stayed dry, warm and protected from the wind. The best feature is how thin and comfortable it is. He usually takes off parkas while driving but this jacket stays on. Most of his outerwear from LL Bean is size large but x-large worked best since he is a big built guy and this item has a slim design. This is all from a man who doesn't get excited about any clothing! Like I said to him, if you want the best, go with LL Bean. Highly recommended.
