Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Windproof Fleece Jacket

Replacement favorite. Left brand new one in airport bathroom. Never saw it again. Luckily LLBean still stocked the coat.

The LL Bean Mountain Classic Windproof Fleece genuinely surprised me. For the price, it delivers exceptional wind resistance, great warmth, and practical everyday usability. It's become a dependable part of my layering systemespecially for early mornings or cool, breezy days when most fleeces fall short. I got it in medium, and it fits fine, perhaps a little roomy. I may have gotten away with getting a small but I believe that's a bias. Unlike standard fleece jackets, this one features a true windproof membrane that blocks gusts entirely. That alone puts it in a different category. Add in the soft inner fleece and the classic styling, and you've got something that's equally suited to casual wear and outdoor utility. It's warm enough to serve as a standalone outer layer in cool weather and layers well under a shell when things get colder. While it's not built for technical abuse like crawling through brush or prone rifle stages, it's perfect for travel, daily use, and general outdoor work This fleece feels like a hidden gem in LL Bean's lineup. It may not carry the marketing buzz of premium brands, but it delivers where it countsand at a fraction of the price. I'd absolutely recommend it for anyone looking for windproof warmth without spending over $100.

My fleece jacket is a great quality. I feel so amazing when it is very windy.

This windproof Fleece is windproof , soft and warm

I needed a light to medium weight jacket, or fleece to wear in New Jersey's strange in between weather. It's chilly in the mornings and warmer during the day. This fleece jacket fits the bill. The sleeves are a little long, but I needed to order an XXL and a tall so that is easy to live with. I like the different colors, too. The gray and teal are definitely a departure from my usual.

This jacket functions well as a wind proof layer alone down to mid 30's or colder with another layer. It is substantially wind proof, which a person needs if they play out in the cold. The long size I bought covers well and the color combinations make it very attractive

Brother loves this jacket. He wears it all the time.

Nicely constructed like my 30 year old Bean fleece which is still functioning but relegated to outdoor chores

Great garment - comfortable, warm, functions as a shell, and layers well - good all around fleece

Comfortable for Late Fall or Early Spring chillness. With layering it can be effective in winter time for moderate outdoor activity like hiking. Its wind resistance is quite good. It feels a bit stiff because of the windproof coating. Hence, don't be fooled by the name "Fleece". It does not feel like fleece.

I was attracted to this jacket for its wind proof rating as well as the chest zipped pocket for one's cellphone and/or wallet. It has performed well to resist the chill winds of Indiana, while offering light insulation from the design and construction. My wife particularly loved the color combination on me. So it's now my favorite jacket.

Great layering jacket . Very comfy true fit. Would order again

This was a gift for my father. I have not seen it on him but he said that it fits great, even on his long arms! He's saving it as a medium-weight jacket for when the weather warms up a bit for spring.

Fleece is very warm, fits good and not tight. Light shirt under is all you need

Warm, lightweight, looks good. I am very satisfied.

This sweater-jacket was purchased for my 21 year old grandson. I think it will be a perfect fit but won't know that until I see it on him. He did not seem delighted with the gift and I am not sure why since he picked it out from the catalog. Sorry I can not be more helpful in reviewing it.

This jacket is AWESOME! When it says "windPROOF" they mean it. I've only had the jacket now for about 4 weeks, however, it's been during the whole month of December in NC. The weather has been exceptionally cold and windy. This jacket has truly met and exceeded expectations! The only down side of this jacket is that it reminds you of the rest of your body that isn't covered by cold weather or wind proof gear. I got the XXL Tall and fits great. Not to loose, not too tight. I have a longer torso so the extra length is great. I would highly recommend this jacket to anyone who works outdoors, active outdoors, and or just wants a really nice warm jacket!

Great fleece at a great price! Lives up to its "wind proof" title in my few experiences with it so far. Very happy with the purchase!

Warm and windproof. Great during fall and even as first layer on the winter. I would buy again and totally recommend it. I bought it in black and it's nice.

Looks great,comfortable. Oversized to layer up.wearing it in side my not so warm house.

Purchased one for my husband and then bought another as a gift for my cousin. These are cosy and comfy.

I also bought the Bean fleece sweater jacket and I am pleased with both items. This is called Men's mountain classic windproof, so I thought it would be heavier but both are similar in weight. I like wearing a sweatshirt type cover instead of a sweater. I like the more solid feel of this type of sweatshirt over the loose feel of a sweater and in the cold weather I will be wearing this item under a coat which will be a good layered warm feel. The style is excellent. More formal than a sweatshirt and yet a similar feel.

Works as advertized! My ffirst version f this jacket lasted 20+ Years!

Fit is perfect. Exactly the high quality that I expected from LLBean

This jacket is very warm and feels very high quality. Very happy with my purchase.
