Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Cresta Stretch Rain Jacket

a good light rain jacket, great to wear by itself or to layer depending on temperature, husband happy with purchase

Well made, comfortable, nice looking fabric, sheds rain as it should. XL Long fits my 6'1" 200# body perfectly and allows layering in cool weather. Grey color is subdued might consider a brighter color next time.

This is the best raincoat I have owned. It is lightweight, well made and completely waterproof. Size Tall L fits my 6'6" frame perfectly.

The medium sized jacket fits well. I'm 5'10" & 175 lbs. It gives nicely, and so far so good on its ability to keep me dry. My only, very minor, gripe is the placement of the vents. You should move them higher to keep wearers from accidentally putting their hands in the vent versus the hand pockets.

Fits well, great color and waterproof. A perfect coat!

Amazing rain coat; excellent fit; wonderful fabric; outstanding features; hood is well designed; My husband and I both have one!

This jacket is light and the longer sleeve and body length are a plus.

Perfect - and keeps you warm and dry dependable and worth the money spent

Comfortable rain jacket that keeps you dry while feeling more like a regular jacket than a rain jacket. At first it seemed the price was a bit high for just a rain jacket, but i needed a good rain jacketand after using it, I think it is completely worth it. I anticipate uaing this jacket for a long time.

Height: 5'9-10" Weight: 185lbs avg. Build: Medium / Broad upper body (not exaggerated) / v torso. Fit comparison: Large dress shirts slim fit (chest button looks like it will burst) and lower back has excess fabric, Large sweater, Large tank tops. A "regular fit" fits my upper body, but the lower back area is too "loose". I like a tapered fitted look. I needed a jacket for my planned Honeymoon to Euro (Paris, Germany, Switz.) from April/May of 2022. After much research for the perfect jacket with stretch capabilities, I landed on this jacket. I have never heard of this brand being from Florida, and now living in Texas. I watched YouTube for a review on this jacket and was a bit worried from being "wet" from the youtubers test. However, this jacket has kept me completely dry! I was a bit worried at one point during my trip as the jacket felt "soaked" from the seasonal changing weather, but I was completely dry underneath! I was normally wearing a single layer comfortably under the jacket; sweater / tank top / button up shirt underneath as a layer. I love that there is an inner chest pocket. Windproof, waterproof. The side hand pockets are at a comfortable position (never experienced this placement from the norm. at the sides). The zipper is high quality and it never snagged to open or close (Although slightly "hard" to zip up without holding the jacket down cause of the "tough" quality). I love the brim of the hoodie to act as a visor for the rain. Fit and finish was perfect! I like the weight of it as it feels like quality and do not find it heavy at all. I hope this review helps you and I personally recommend this jacket from my experience! Pictures have my pockets full with something normally (water bottle, compact camera, batteries, small umbrella?),

This is a very comfortable jacket which fits appropriate to size. I have not yet tested it in rain.

Well made, true to size rain jacket. Keeps you nice and dry.

fits well. really like the color. quality is wonderful for my purposes - protection from rain, layering as needed

that s the best, it s expensive but the quality worth it.

I used this rain jacket during a very wet and cold two week vacation in Germany and used it everyday as a top layer. I couldn't have been happier with its performance.

Excellent travel rain coatfits easily in day pack.

As usual with Bean this is a very well made product Holds up well with lots of heavy spring rains in NE Pa Would def recommend

Pricey, but solid LL Bean quality built into this rain jacket

Loved wearing this jacket. Recently did a tour of the Grand Canyon, Bryce and Zion. It was perfect for wearing layers as the tour managers recommended.

I have been looking for a raincoat for my husband for a while. He likes a light weight coat with comfortable roominess and the XL is perfect. It allows hime the extra room he likes. ...A+ to L.L. Bean!

True to size. The perfect spring jacket. I wear it over a sweater and I've been dry as a bone in the rain.

Jacket fits true to size and is very comfortable to wear. Not to heavy and works wonders when it rains. I look at it as an "all weather" jacket. Everyone should have one of these.

Great fit as expected. Replaced a Mermot and happy I did. Excellent customer service!

My son loves the sizable pockets and stretchy material.

Great jacket for rain, wind or snow! It is a good wind blocker as well as a good water proofer. It you put a layer or two under it, it is a great all weather jacket.
