Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Trail Model Rain Jacket

Fit is good, as expected. The front zipper closure is not as smooth as I'd like, it gets caught in extra fabric and/or the Velcro closure that goes over the final zipped up front is cumbersome as well. The jacket is great for rain and shields well. I own a previous LL Bean Rain jacket and love it, I find myself going back to it instead of using the new one.

Nice jacket, definitely waterproof. But agree with others-its tight in the shoulders. Also would be nice if the sleeves had elastic on the cuffs in addition to the Velcro adjustment.

Beautiful jacket, beautiful color blue! lightweight And not hot at all even in the summer rain. Looks great with nice detailing. Love the Velcro around wrists and zipped pockets. Would highly recommend this jacket!

The Burgundy jacket is misrepresented online. Instead of a nice brick red as shown, I received a disappointing dark plum jacket. The jacket is also very fitted and does not allow room for more than a long-sleeve t-shirt underneath. I ordered my usual size, which was correct according to the size chart. The next size up would be too large. I will likely return the jacket.

I ordered (and then returned) an XS Petite - it was huge on me. XS petite is the smallest but is equivalent to a US size 2 (which I learned after the fact was larger than I expected). It was very long on me in both the arms and torso, and too wide in the chest area. Overall I just felt like I was all jacket when I wore it and it overpowered everything else as it was so big on me. Im really not even that small, Im pretty average weight for someone my height and have some curves (Im 5 ft). I wish there was at least the option to get it smaller than the XS as that is just not small enough - I could deal with the longer length, but Im small chested so it just didnt work. Its really hard to find petite clothing so it was just disappointing to me that the one place with petite rain jackets is still too large. Otherwise, the color was really cute and the material was comfy.

I have always lov d that I could depend on the quality of LLBean, but not this time! My other raincoat quit being waterproof. I have to walk to work in all weather. I too my time selecting and found less expensive but I wanted durable and quality. So I chose LLBean. I wore it yesterday in the rain for the first time and it is not waterproof! My clothes underneath were wet after a mile. I will return.

I loved my original rain jacket and it was a perfect fit. I ordered another one, because mine is so old it was falling apart. The new one in the same size is much smaller. I cant get the larger size, because the sleeves will be too long. Very disappointed . Returning the jacket. Would only recommend to a friend if they were tiny.

I went for a walk on a rainy day and accidentally walked into a large area filled with thorn bushes. I had no choice but to continue forward. I could hear the thorns hitting and sliding across my new Trail Model Rain Jacket. When I got home, I looked the jacket over and there was not one tear or snag. I love my jacket so much. That jacket is worth every penny I paid for it.

Im not sure what I was expecting for $120, but it wasnt a jacket that fit in a bag barely larger than a sandwich bag. The rain jacket may be great, but I definitely felt ripped off when I opened the package.

Lightweight, stylish and flattering. Would recommend

My wife needed a new raincoat and this one arrived just in time for the seemingly month long precipitation we're apparently going to experience on the previously drought-afflicted Central Coast of California. The coat looks good and I'm told it is very comfortable and effective at keeping its wearer dry. It was a very good purchase.

Love this rain jacket! Great fit! Beautiful green color!

Fits great and shed water with ease! Great that is full zip and light weight so easy to store!

I purchased this during a storm to replace a life-time guaranteed one Id had a few years that was peeling apart. LL Bean no longer stands behind its brand and this will be my last purchase.

This jacket and my Bean boots make for dry warm rainy days!

This is the 3rd L.L. Bean rain jacket in this style that I've had in some 20 years. The quality is the same, and I love the color, but it fits tight (even though I've lost 20 pounds). I didn't return this medium for a large because the length and the sleeves fit well.

Its perfect. Exactly what I was wanting for our daughter who is active outdoors in nature.

Im a size M. This was too snug around my hips. I like the style, so Im sadly going to size up.

I layered this on a cool day by wearing a sweater underneath. It is comfortable and totally water resistant. My old one was about 10 years old and I was ready for a color other than black. This is attractive and very versatile. The fit is true to size. I plan to enjoy this one for another 10 years!

Great quality. The XS Petite was perfect for my daughter who is 53 115 pounds.

I bought this rain jacket for a trip to Ecuador. It held up nicely in afternoon downpours with a light fleece under it.

I don't understand why the fit was changed from traditional to slightly fitted for the trail model rain jacket. Because of the fit I had to order a larger size. I normally wear Medium. I'm not thrilled with the way the jacket fits but there is not much I can do about it. In order to get enough room in the fitted area to accommodate a layer, I had to go up a size. Because of that, the bottom of the jacket flairs out and reminds me of an A Line skirt from many years ago. This is outdoor gear. When active, you need room to move and be comfortable. Please drop the slightly fitted and go back to the original fit.

I returned the jacket because it did not fit. I am concerned you have not indicated the return had taken place.
