Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Primaloft Packaway Hooded Jacket

Size and fit perfect. The color is the most beautiful blue. Hard to believe it is so warm, yet so lightweight. Don't underestimate this little coat, it will easily take you from mild to down right cold. It also breathes well when you work up some warmth trotting with the dog. A+

I love this jacket and have received compliments when I've worn it. The color and size are true, although the hood and full zipped collar take a bit of getting used to. It is very light weight and much to my delight does keep me warm.

Good looking, comfortable and light, this jacket fits the way it should, and packs up small for travel

Bought this coat for my 12-year-old daughter who is 5'5" and about 110 pounds. Originally ordered the XS, but exchanged it for the S, which is slightly large but in a stylish way. The coat is lightweight and well constructed, perfect for our mild NC winters. Lots of handy pockets. And the two-tone blue is really pretty!

I am ready to give all of my bulky coats away now that I have this jacket. It is my go to and wear everywhere jacket. Will be traveling with it this summer. Weighs nothing.

I was looking for a ultralight jacket with hood to wear in temperatures above freezing that was also petite. so many jackets just come regular with long arms and hood that flops in your face. Not this jacket, the hood and arms are just right. its so light it will be ideal for travel. Fits great just below the hips so no bunching. It's also a great color blue. Added bonus its environmentally friendly material.

There isn't anything I do not love about this jacket. I love the color! (Olive w/Teal zipper , inside)....I love that its lightweight, but warm...Its the perfect coat! Oh, and I got it half off , on sale , so I definitely loved the price!

Fabulous warmth, weight, quality

I have been watching this jacket for a while, hesitating because of the hefty price tag. I decided to take the plunge when I found a clearance color I could live with, plus another % off. It was still fairly pricy, but I have found it was totally worth the money. I did order it two sizes bigger than what the size chart would indicate for my particular measurements (should fit XL, ordered 2XL)This was purposeful in that I wanted it very roomy, in case I wanted to wear a fleece or sweater under it. Personally, I do not like clingy clothing. This jacket is very lightweight, but kept me warm in cool temperatures. This is not a deep winter, stand alone type coat. I wear it as a layer under my LL Bean H2O off raincoat. This combo kept me warm on a recent trip to Wisconsin in February. It is enough alone for a cool southTexas day. Bonus - dog hair does not stick to it. The slick nyon fabric sheds any and all hair! This is a big deal for someone who has multiple dogs. It stays nice looking, despite living with a pack of hairy shedders.

Got this in Spruce color which looks great with my jeans and khakis. Don't be fooled by this lightweight jacket- it really is warm and blocks wind well. It's my new favorite jacket for walks, errands, work, and farm chores. Got my money's worth for sure.

Love this jacket. PrimaLoft is super light and very warm. I wear it in CT and FL! I also have the pullover, half zip. Don't need any other jackets.

Love the lightness of it, so comfortable, a bit longer than my other ones from you, which I like, so warm, great jacket

This jacket is light as a feather and toasty warm.

I wore this jacket on a recent trip to the Caribbean. It kept me warm on the plane and then folded up neatly into its pocket when I arrived. I stowed it in my carry on and put it on when I arrived home. It's warm but lightweight. I haven't tried it in temps colder than 40 degrees yet but it's a great addition to my winter wardrobe!

I wanted a lightweight jacket with a hood. I wanted it roomy to layer, without feeling bulky. I would normally wear a 1X, but purposely bought it a size larger. It's lighter weight then a sweatshirt, but warm. I have worn this every day since I bought it. If they had another color I wanted in my size, I'd order another one. I will definitely buy another next year.

I love this coat! It really keeps me warm on cold winter days yet it is so light weight; I do not feel weighted down. I have worn it it in 20 degree weather and with gloves and a scarf; it keeps me warm. Recommend it for anyone who does not like the "bulk" of cold weather/winter wear. Note; this is true to size; but I am allowing for sweater/layers underneath.

Just love it! So fllattering.

It was a gift for a daughter-in-law. She loves it. Seems to be warm enough. Fits well. Color is good, not too bright.

I ordered this for myself because I wanted a hood. I love the warmth and light weight. Perfect for dog walking except hot summer days. My daughter saw it and said, Mom, mine doesn't have a hood. So she has one now. We both love them.

This jacket is just what I was looking for. I wanted a jacket for cold weather walking/cross country skiing. Good for very cold activities with a heavier under layer. It is light and not at all bulky, with great pockets and a useful hood. The blue color is beautiful. It would not be warm enough for just sitting or standing in the cold, but it is perfect for moving!

I received this jacket as a gift and love it! The size is perfect without layers but I have plenty of room for layers when the temperatures are colder. I love all of the zippered pockets-they keep whatever is in them safely IN the pockets. This jacket works on its own, over sweaters and flannel shirts, and under other jackets I have. It comes in several beautiful colors (I received the berry, my personal favorite!). I would recommend it to anyone.

...that fits my hips. other companies had jackets that didn't fit around my large hips but were TOO big elsewhere (sleeves that went past my fingers by almost a foot?!?!?), but this jacket fit. Wish i found the color i liked in a petite, which would've been perfect, but this is darn near perfect. and i LOVE the way it packs up into the perfect travel pillow too!

I love this jacket! It is so light and warm. I have worn it around running errands, hiking, in the snow, in the rain and the wind, it keeps me dry and toasty in all conditions. Washes really well-it dries so quickly. My only "thing" with this jacket is that it is a little slippery when I am wearing a backpack it does tend to slide off my shoulders which is not an issue I've ever had before. I wish I hadn't hemmed and hawed for so long over purchasing it, just get it if you are looking for a cozy and super light jacket.

I purchased this coat on a recommendation from my sister who lives in the mountains in PA. When I got it, I thought I'd made a mistake. It is super lightweight. I thought there's no way this coat will keep me warm on my early morning walks with the dog. I'm always cold. Well, I stand corrected. It keeps my body and head toasty warm even when it's in the teens. Any colder, you'd probably need a sweater or hoodie underneath and you'd be good. I just wish it came just a little longer to completely cover my...well... you know. Anyway, It's easy to roll up and stuff in a backpack, so I got one for my college age daughter to keep her warm walking around campus this winter.

Just received the Kelp Green color and I'm in love. I live in Colorado and we just had a snow storm. Wore this jacket to shovel snow and was warm as could be. The Kelp Green with the beautiful blue lining is just lovely. Very happy with my purchase. I'll be taking on an upcoming trip to a Europe. Love the fact that I can pack it away in its own pouch.
