Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Fleece Jacket

Have bought this jacket before but this time when I bought it the size was way off. I bought a large and even that was too small when I usually buy a medium. Not true to sizing. Very disappointed.

I've ordered a few items (jacket, shirts, t-shirts) and all have had to be returned because there is not enough room in the upper arm of the sleeves. Women's sizes are for big women yet the sleeves are tight. The jacket just returned was my size according to your size chart yet it was snug. For the expense it wasn't worth it so it went back. Please watch this and correct the inconsistency.

What happened to the available color choices for this jacket? I love the style. Love the features. But the color(s)? Ugh.

My husband bought me two of these in January. They are both pilling. The balls of fleece get stuck to the furniture and on to the people I'm close to. They are very disappointing.

I am very disappointed in this jacket. I got the deep lake blue color, washed it before I wore it and later that day wondered where all the fuzz was coming from on my clothes. To my dismay, it was the jacket. It got fuzz all over my clothes and also my baggallini (fabric) crossbody purse. It seems to be made with inferior fleece, which is especially disappointing considering it is rather expensive.

Jacket is pilling, badly. Seatbelt and purse strap are causing pea size balls to form. I have jacket in 3 other colors from previous years with no problems. Hoping I can return.

I bought this jacket because my old gray fleece LlBean jacket from the early 1980's was wearing out. It is not a suitable replacement! It's thin and skimpy and I am using it as a light sweater. I should have returned it.

I will Never purchase Anything from LL BEAN AGAIN EVER! Ordered 3 items that were shipped and all were left at a Michael's store in a city 45 minutes away!!! What the fudge????

I was so excited to receive my Women's Mountain Classic Fleece jacket - loved the green color, and the detailed styling on the back. However, after wearing the jacket for the first time on an outing with my granddaughter, I noticed after only a few hours that the jacket was pilling, most noticeably along the seatbelt strap lines, and where my crossbody bag was in contact with the jacket. What a disappointment! I currently wear three old (one of these is very old!) Bean fleece jackets, and a fleece vest, none of which have pilled over many years of wear. I guess the fleece used in the current Mountain Fleece jackets is not of optimum quality. Sadly, I sent the jacket back. I hope Bean can do better in the future with these wardrobe staples. I'd really like another one!

I ordered the size small petite based on the size chart and the description of "slightly fitted". If the size chart is correct then the description is incorrect as the jacket would be described as being "generous fitted". I have tried washing it in warm water and put it in dryer on high, but it still has not diminished in size. So i guess I'm stuck with it. I'm 5' 1" and weight 110.

Quality not up to L.L. Bean standards Fabric too Light weight Sizing not correct. Poor value for money

I ordered this as I have an older one that I really love. Unfortunately this one is not the same quality. I washed it 4 times and it is still getting lint all over everything, which a fleece jacket like this should not do to begin with. Disappointing from a company that usually makes good quality items. Returning.

Returned it not satisfied at all and again brown zippered pulls should be navy on navy fleece

I have several LLbean fleece jackets and this one is terrible! It sheds ! Fibers rub off on everything! Going to return.

While cozy warm on chilly days the design is unflattering. There is a stitching that runs the entire circumference of the jacket. It was probably a cost cutting decision that is in line with the top of pockets. It creates a seam above the waist line making an unflattering line. The bottom hem flares out creating an even worse look. I'll only wear this to work at home since I've worn it without looking in mirror first.

I recently wore this jacket with a black sweater underneath. When I took this jacket off there was shedding from the jacket covering my black sweater. I have two of this same jacket hanging in my closet none of which have shed like this one. The look and feel of this jacket is definitely not the same. The older one says 100% polyester. The new one says 100% recycled polyester. So what is it recycled with? It is not the quality of the other two hanging in my closet. Sorry LL Bean I will not be making any more purchases from your company.

This jacket fits badly. The jacket is tighter overall than all of the other size M Regular jackets I have from Bean. The sleeves are not large enough to wear a layer underneath. There is an odd seam in the middle of the jacket, which prevents it from hanging straight when zipped. And the LL Bean logo is bright and garish and in too obvious a place on the jacket. I have already sent this jacket back.

I was disappointed in this jacket. It looked and fit fine, but the zipper was too fussy. It took me too many tries to get it to work, so back it goes.

Great jacket, zipper pockets, good quality. Problem for me was the color. I wanted and needed a black fleece to replace my older fleece. I wanted a real black and this jacket was a charcoal black. Not a real black. It looked grey.

The zipper is plastic and it gets stuck. Disappointing quality.

Not a true black so color didn't work. Just not my style.

The minute I tryed this jacket on, the zipper got stuck. Every time I wear this jacket, the zipper gets stuck. It is stressful to always try to rework this terrible zipper.

This is my second LLB fleece jacket in recent years and it's like a magnet for hair--any hair--mine, my cats, my dogs, any fuzzies, etc...It's also short in length (body and arms). I am 5'8", so taller than average but not gigantic, and it is just not long enough. The sleeves basely come to my wrists and the bottom of the jacket rides up, it barely reaches to my hips. I would not buy again or recommend.

Where are the tall sizes? What good is a jacket if the arms are too short? What good is a jacket if it isn't long enough?

I am so disappointed. I love the jacket, the shape, and the color. I have twice washed the jacket, it is shedding and pilling inside and outside on my shirt, seat, and seat belt. Extremely disappointed because I love the jacket. I hate to have to return it.
