Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Primaloft Packaway Jacket

Very pretty jacket, fits well. It is less warm that I expected, based on the description. However, I will keep it as I have a warmer coat.

Nice but over priced, not sure if I'm going to keep it. Light weight, not for extreme cold temperatures unless it is worn with other layers. I am normally a medium but the large felt better over a sweater and vest.

The color is nice but the jacket is little too thin and the collar is not very attractive.

3X, so light weight but oh so warm. Pockets in all the right places! A bit tight across the shoulders for me but it's my new "go to" jacket!

I've had this coat for 2 years and still love it. Pros: light weight, not bulky, multiple zipped pockets, hits at hip. I really like this jacket. Fits well enought to wear a hoodie under. It's not a winter coat but is warm enough and allows for layers under it. You don't feel like a marshmallow and you still have good movement in your arms. Wish it was slightly heavier but honestly it isn't a huge turnoff. I toss it around, hang it on the banister, and my dog lays on it. In 2 years, only slightly pulled one small thread so its durable. Would recommend

I really wanted a lighter weight jacket for travel, but this one looked boxy on, and was too long for my 5' frame, even in Petite sizing. I also wasn't a fan of the darker pink pocket area. Would rather the entire jacket were the same color.

I love the fit and the light weight of the jacket, but I'm not so sure about how warm it's going to keep me in the winter. They talk about NASA technology and show pictures of people doing outdooor activities in the snow, but I'm skeptical. I would probably have to add a tremendous amount of base layers to stay warm in those conditions. All in all, very pleased with the purchase.

Very comfortable, runs a bit small, not nearly as warm as I had hoped. Irritating cuffs

The thing I don't care much is having a logo, it's like advertising.

Love the jacket. Fits perfectly and color is beautiful. Zipper separates on occasion.

Great light weight down jacket. My only complaint is I wish it had a 2 way zipper. Jacket is long enough to cover my backside but when sitting the 2 way would be nice. An inside pocket would be helpful too.

I loved everything Except emblem on the front was stamped and not embroidered. I sent some email because I wanted them to re think the design. It looks tacky.

Very nice jacket, it just didn't fit me. My husband loves the men's version and wears it frequently. I wear a petite size and the Medium was too small across the chest and the large was way too roomy and too long. Wish it had fit.

Nice jacket , true to size. Fits well over layers of clothing. But not as warm is I thought it would be. Best if worn will the best under.

I bought the jacket to wear on a trip. It is lightweight and warm. Fits well over other clothing. If it had a double zipper I would have given it 5 stars. I need to unzip it to sit in the car.

I recently bought the blue, in M. Lovely color. Not as warm as my 8-yr old Bean ultralight down sweater that I wanted to replace, but roomy enough to wear a heavy sweater under it. The ultralight down sweater is much more money, and the current design does not have the outside chest pocket that I love in my old one. The PrimaLoft Packaway does have that outside pocket.

The coat is advertised as lightweight and warm. It is lightweight, however, it is not very warm. It would be warm in some areas, but not in Colorado weather. If LL Bean has a coat that is lightweight and warm, I would be interested in buying it.

Love the weight of this jacket and the brick red color. I like the longer sleeve but the body of the jacket is 1 - 2" snugger than my old jacket, though a large would be too big. The only other thing I prefer is to have some snap closures in addition to the zipper so it doesn't have to be zipped up to hold closed.

I ordered according to the size chart, (I'm 5'7", 220 and hour glassy), and it fits perfectly, looks great, packs down to nothing. Awesome design and useful pockets. But it's not a warm coat, despite the fancy NASA whatever. I tested it in 40-degree weather wearing a thermal top underneath and it was not warm enough. My LL Bean fleece bathrobe is warmer (though less packable). My $20 box store packable puffer is warmer (though less packable). I recommend this as a perfect light jacket for fall and spring, especially for travel, but you'd need hard core layers under it to make it winter-worthy.

Good mid weigh jacket I bought for winter bicycling. It seems pretty wind proof so far. I am wearing it with other layers. My only complaint is that the zipper is a little faulty. Seems to need some coaxing to zip.

I thought this was a very nice jacket & just the weight I wanted for a winter jacket down south. The blue color is lovely. Unfortunately I didn't keep it because although I ordered a petite size the sleeves were way too long!

This is a sharp looking jacket and I like the way it looks on me. It is a pretty color too. However, I think the cuff at the end of the sleeves is a little tight. I wish the cuff was knitted instead of tight fitting.

The fit is perfect. True to size. Comfortably warm. Only reason not 5 stars, snap button pockets. Zipper closure would have checked all boxes! Otherwise, its a nice quality coat.

Well made and very comfortable, except the next felt a little too stiff. Fit well. However, I returned and went with a different brand that I liked better.

Awesome jacket/coat. Very lightweight but very warm. I love the neck that you can full zip if needed. True to size. I sized up so I could layer more. One less star from me because the zipper is cheaply made.
