Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Fleece Jacket

It has potential. Bought it to add to my collection of "cold-but-not-below freezing" jackets. Unfortunately I returned it for size & fit.

This is a nice fleece but i would have preferred a larger size.

I like the styling and the blue with yellow zipper pulls (Michigan fan) but it's not as warm as I was hoping. Not really good below 40 or in windy conditions.

Like jacket very much, Fits true to size, cozy and soft. Warm to about 40 degrees. Zipper is a slight issues as others have stated.

Great jacket. I have an athletic type body and it fits well and not to flared out at the bottom. However, quite a large amount of lint comes off the jacket for the first few wears. Overall I am satisfied with the purchase

This jacket is sturdy & well made. I was tired of buying Columbia fleece jackets that get worn out & awful looking so quickly. I am hoping this jacket will go the long haul. I wanted a little roomier fit to wear big sweatshirts under. I am 5'4 and 125# and I bought a medium. It fits how I wanted it to.

I just received my jacket yesterday. I had tried it on in an LLBean store in an XS Regular. I really liked it, but the sleeves were too long, so I went home and ordered it in Petite Small, thinking that would solve the problem. I have found that if you're going from Regular sizes to Petite sizes, you need to go up a size. I love the size, the material it's made from is warm and cozy, and the color (gray) is great, but the sleeves are still too long! Only the top inch of my fingers show when my arms are hanging straight down. I like it enough that I have decided to keep it, but I did have to fold the sleeves over twice to make the sleeves short enough. I am disappointed that the Petite doesn't have shorter sleeves!

The fit is great. Color is great. Comfort level is great. But it feels a little thinner/lighter than the identical one I purchased in navy two years ago.

Runs large. Hate the elastic and large plastic toggles on the bottom. Also prefer a true navy. Like the zipper on the pockets.

Jacket is soft and warm. This is just what I was looking for.

Very nice fitting jacket. I've been wearing it in 40 degree weather and it has been very comfortable. Just wish that the jacket had an inside pocket. Size -Small

Okay, nice and warm - do not like the 'shoe lace' pulls on the zippers. Please, something of the same color as the jacket - they are gaudy.

I'm 5'3" tall and 135 lbs. and I ordered a medium. I should of ordered a size larger but it's not a true black so I'm returning it and not ordering another one.

The cut and fit of this jacket is great. I like the pockets that have zipper pulls; collar fits nicely at the neck. However I did return the jacket. The color described as black is not black but a dark steel gray color. Unsatisfactory so did not keep. I did keep the Muted Purple jacket purchased in the same order. I have removed the LL Bean insignia sewn to upper left chest area. I would prefer that LL Bean return to its previous embroidery of company name that is done in matching thread - less obtrusive and allows jacket to be dressy or sporty.

This jacket is soft and appears warm but it did not fit and I am sending it back. The reason is it tapers at the waist making not a good fit for me.

I bought this jacket because I couldn't find one in any area stores in petite. While I like it, I wish the sleeves weren't so long. Also, it they could have finished the sleeves off differently, I could fold them back. That's the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

True to size and a good mid weight jacket. Fleece quality is fair but good for price point.

This looks and feels as expected. I ordered a medium instead of my usual llbean small… glad I did ! I just wish there wasn’t a logo on it ????

I have an LL Bean jacket from at least 30 years ago. I still wear it MAINLY because the sleeves and size are big enough I can wear something slight thicker underneath it. WHY DON'T They come back with the fuller sleeves and nit the tight narrow ones that you can barely get your turtleneck comfortable underneath ? PLEASE BRING IT BACK,!!!!!!!! I keep hoping every year. Come on girls please complain!!!!!

Really too early to tell how it will wear when it gets chilly / Cold. Do like all of the zipper pockets.

I sell soap at the local farmer's market. My booth is in the shade and when the wind is up, it's chilly. I bought this fleece jacket to keep warm during those chilly times at the market. This jacket works. My only complaint is the arms are a bit too long. I put a roll in them and when I have time, I'll shorten them properly.

Not a true to size fit but fits well. Not perfect fit but will do. I'm afraid the next size up or down won't fit well. I would recommend llbean for their quality.

Loved the cut and fit of this style. I have many other LLBean jackets this one is cut with less emphasis on being curvy all my other jackets are too curvy so they look lumpy at best on me. The material is warm and lightweight and washes well. If you wear a pack for hiking it will rub on this material and it will pill some. I bought this for outdoor wear and that's fine with me... I would love this jacket style with the old windproof polartek fabric that would make a awesome jacket for color and wet weather outdoors activity especially fall and winter camping

Ordered the Petite Small as I knew the xtra small would be too tight. The sleeves are a bit long but easy to roll up. Lovely jacket but I wish they would put their logo at the bottom of the jacket. Placing it up front on a white jacket takes away from the nice look -- which is why I gave it only 4 stars.

I ordered Petite Medium and it fits well over something else, not too bulky and very warm. I mention that first as Petite sizing is not consistent and I return a lot. The jacket is nice. I live in Florida and most of the time it's all I need. I wish it had an interior pocket like my old one. Not sure I'm in love with the "sweater fleece". I think I like the softness of the old fleece better but, I'm getting used to the feel. Overall, it's a keeper.
