Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Ultralight 850 Down Sweater Jacket

Warm and comfortable light jacket perfect for cooler days when a heavy jacket is not needed. Roomy fit allows you to wear a sweater comfortably underneath the jacket. The purple is a fun color!

Fit and weight are perfect! It's been VERY cold lately so I've had few opportunities to wear this jacket but it was great when I had the chance.

Light weight but warm, exactly what I was looking for and the color is great.

I really like this down sweater jacket. It did the trick under my wind breaker jacket while cross country skiing in the Adirondacks. And I will be able it as a standalone jacket in the NYC area where it is not as cold.

Lightweight and warm. Love it! Got the XS Petite and it fits well. I'm 5'1", 115 lbs, 34 bust.

Light and comfortable. Just wish it had inside hidden pockets.

Bought in Moss Olive but wanted the Purple. Unfortunately, my size was not available. I am loving the green but Hoping the purple comes back in stock and I will get it, too. Fits comfortably, warm enough for winter's in NJ and looks . Comfortable fit, not tight, back covers butt.

Great to use on chilly mornings in warmer climates. I ordered a size up to use more as a jacket than a sweater. I love it and get so many compliments on it.

I wear this for everything - as my coat on not-that-cold days, for cold weather running, under another coat on really cold days, as a packable layer in any season, under my ski shell for skiing. I had the Night one for years and it's still in great shape, I recently bought a black one just because I wanted a black puffer. I do wish you'd offer more on-trend colors - I'd buy another in a heartbeat if it came in a dark emerald green or deep teal!

I have an older down sweater that I love and wanted one in a different color. I do like the newer jacket but it does differ from the older version. 1. It runs a bit bigger I purchased a large and could easily wear a medium. 2. It is less boxy and more tapered (I preferred the boxy version.) 3. The fabric feels a bit stiffer than my old jacket, but maybe it's because it is new. I do prefer the old style but the new one is still that great LL Bean quality and I am keeping it. If you are used to the older version you may want to size down.

I layer this under my chore jacket and I'm warm as toast in this single degree days we've been having! I love that it is not bulky or heavy, very glad I bought it!!

Love this sweater! It is lightweight yet VERY warm. Most of all the color (bright blue) is stunning! goes with all my denim outfits. If it were not quite so expensive, I would get another color.

Beautiful jacket that is lightweight and warm enough for most winter weather!

I love this jacket. It is the perfect weight for fall and spring, and is very comfortable. The Moss Olive color is so attractive and unique. I usually wear a medium, but I had to size down to a small. The small is still quite roomy, but doesn't look oversized.

Favorite, bought before 3 years ago in different color. Bought again. Weight is perfect for spring/fall. Lightweight but warm for layering. My favorite grab and go everywhere. Lots of compliments on this jacket.

Love this jacket! Ordered this to replace another packable jacket I had. This is super comfortable and keeps me warm in moderately cool temps.

This jacket continues the LL Bean legacy of quality clothing for reasonable costs. An earlier version has worn and laundered countless times for nine years. I expect this one will last just as long. The color is a pleasant lavender and can be worn with various items in my wardrobe. The waistline is a bit loose, but it allows me to wear thicker tops under it. It's a great purchase.

Versatile lightweight jacket. This is great alone, or layer with a sweater underneath.

Warm but lightweight, love the purple color! This was great to travel with, fit easily in a suitcase. I bought a large so I could comfortably fit a bulky sweater or sweatshirt underneath.

Perfect weight and warmth. Slightly fitted adds great style. Very happy with my purchase!

Absolutely love this jacket, worth the expensive price. Middle warmth but it's been good for everything in the winter so farwith and without layering depending on the temp. So comfy and well made, love the inside pocket so no need for a purse.

Warm and lightweight. Just what I needed and love the color.

Love it!!! lightweight.. perfect for running from the car to the store... not too warm in the store.

On the bitter cold days we're now having where I live, it makes a huge difference to wear 2 down pieces; this down "sweater" is less cumbersome than wearing a down coat or jacket over a bulky wool sweater. It is made just as well as the other 3 Bean down coats or jackets I own and was a great purchase to wear solo on cool days, OR on icy cold days, as a "down sweater" under the others. Same great Bean quality. LOVE IT.

This jacket is lightweight yet very warm. It has two zippered pockets.
