Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Fleece Vest

I love it but not too warm but perfect for living on the central coast of california

Fits well at a 3X over turtlenecks. Soft. The color, sienna brick, is more muted than the catalog/web site shows.

Warm, well made and good quality. I wish it were 2 inches longer (just me). Overall, a good product

Very soft and comfortable. Good length. Fits well. Just wish it was a little bit warmer.

I was delighted to see that this style and weight of fleece vest was again being offered and in a color I didn't already have--classic, all one color, and a versatile weight, especially for someone who lives in CA. I do wish that they were still made from authentic Malden Mills original polarfleece that is loftier, supremely durable, doesn't pill, and lasts forever. I have a large wardrobe of these in a variety of colors that I started acquiring soon after I moved from New England to CA 30 years ago, plus a couple that were my mother's. Only one hasn't survived in great shape, this because my dog chewed a hole in the pocket to get a treat that was in it!

This is nice fleece vest with pockets and comes in petite sizes. I do not especially like the long style. I prefer a vest that ends just below the waist. Sometimes the longer style seems like you are wearing a blanket.

I purchased this to replace a beloved older LL Bean fleece vest. This vest is thick, warm fleece. The teal color is nice. The petite medium, my usual size, was a little snug in the chest, so I exchanged for a petite large so I could layer over a sweater. I don't care for the cord pulls on the zipper and pockets, but those can be changed. I dislike the prominent LL Bean logo, which is why this item received 4 stars instead of 5.

Very well made, but a little "boxy". Would prefer a more tailored design. If you have a boxy shape, it's a great vest. My lady, who is busty but has no butt, prefers a more tailored, tapered style.

I got the Muted Purple in size Medium. Fit was ok in bust (I'm 36DD) but was rather long in torso and too long overall. Color is nice to look at but it didn't go with anything in my closet except black. I didn't care for the zipper tabs but they could be removed. Nice quality garment but not the best fit or color for me - decided to return.

It's a perfect, simple and beautifully colored women's vest that easily will fit under a jacket during winter.

Color is nice soft teal. Fabric and fit are good. Look forward to this keeping me warm on walks and around the house. Zippered pockets are good for phone, keys, tissue etc.

I love the color! Most difficult to find a regular fleece vest in medium purple. I despise sweater fleece vests. The zipper pockets are great and a must! No zippers means keys, wallet & cell phones fall out. Mother have to bend A LOT. Sans pockets is daft!

I returned this vest because of the fabric. It just wasn't something I would enjoy and be comfortable with. The type fabric altered the shade of black too. But as always with LL Bean merchandise, the construction and the style were fabulous !!!!!

Fits well and is warm. Color not as deep as in photo.

This vest runs generous. I would usually wear an XL and had to reorder in a Large. Even the Large is a little big. The purple color is nice.

I loved the color but the fleece isn't is as soft as I was hoping. It is thick and warm so I give it a 4 star rating. I'll wash it and see if it softens up. It would be really awesome with a zipper that opens at the bottom as well as the top.

Nice color, fabric and weight of fabric, and style. Oddly, the arm holes are enormous, especially considering the size vest that I purchased. Still, this vest is versatile and wearable across several seasons.

This vest is cozy. I like the toggles at the bottom to tighten the hem. It seems like there's too much fabric around the underarm area, but I'm right in between a medium and a large, so that's probably why, since I bought a large. It's really a nice vest, all in all. I imagine I'll be wearing it for years, and the color (muted purple) is lovely and goes with everything.

I have several of these vests and bought this one for my mother. But I got the size wrong, and she says it's too heavy for her-a petite 90+woman, so I'm returning it.

I love the vest, but I wish I'd ordered the small petite instead of the medium. The vest is soft, warm-and all I'd hoped.

Good quality but runs large. I would have returned if there was not a charge to do so.

I like the fleece vest a lot. I am pleased that at last your size medium has enough room in the hips. I love the teal color. I love the warmth. My one big unhappiness is the L L Bean logo on the chest. This is not attractive or appropriate in casual social settings. I hope to pick out the stitches and remove the logo patch.

it is a nice warm vest. my only issue is the color is not true black. it's like a dark grey

This is a very nice fleece vest but it was not what I was looking for. I found the collar created bulk I preferred not to have under a very bulky coat. Very nice but not for my circumstances.

Love this vest! My only complaint is that there is no 2 way zipper. A joy to have when driving.
