Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Cresta Stretch Rain Jacket

Love the stretch which makes it extra comfortable. Very lightweight yet appears more substantial as well as very stylish!

So far, this rain jacket fits perfectly. I love the color!

Nice lightweight raincoat. Good for warm climates.

I love that the wrists have a Velcro closure so they can fit tightly or more loosely. It fits just right!

Tried on way too many rain coats before finding this one. The stretch is real! Super comfortable and flattering fit. Love the adjustable cuffs and the longer length that's functional yet still stylish. I've had other Tek products so know it will perform well. 100% satisfied

When I got this I thought it was a shirt or something small since the package was so small and light. It was my rain jacket. It fits well with enough room to layer. I ordered Petite Medium in black. I can wear my light fleece jacket underneath, and I don't feel constrained. I can use it as a windbreaker, too. This eliminates the need to bring extra outwear. The hood has drawstrings around the crown area so I can fit it to my head and don't need to wear a cap to keep it from blowing off. The brim doesn't stick out much so if it's really rainy I might still need to wear a cap underneath to keep water from dripping on my face. I put in on and stood in the shower for a bit (I always test rain gear out in the shower). I was perfectly dry. I don't know how it would be if I was out in a rain storm for hours but this is for fall so I don't think I'll be in that situation.

The rain jacket is comfortable, good looking and fits perfectly with enough room for layers. I wore it during a torrential rain storm and I stayed dry and happy!

This was just the jacket I was looking for! We took a trip to Iceland and it kept me warm and dry and packed well. The color is great and I was able to layer things under it.

Very comfortable rain jacket. Looks great on and keeps the rain off. The hood is adjustable too which is a feature not found in many of this kind of jacket. Definitely worth the price!

Fits great. Love the color. Beads water. Matches the bucket hat I purchased from LL Bean. Would recommend.

I love this jacket! Perfect fit, breathable material, great color.

I love this coat! The fit is great and it looks good on. I even got compliments on the color.

extra comfortable with stretch fabric- nice and lightweight! Perfect fit!

Fits great. I love the little bit of streach. It does not make a lot of crinkle noise when you walk, I can hear the birds.

Comfortable jacket. I like how it stretches and moves with me.

Because of the price I was hesitant to order this jacket. Then I saw a photo that another customer provided. So many jackets with hoods have those stand up collars, this one lays fairly flat. You would never know unless you saw it on a real person, hence picture is provided. There is a long sleeve tee shirt and cardigan on under the jacket, still enough room to be comfortable. It was fine with just a short sleeve shirt too. Lots of zip pockets to carry the ever present cell phone and keys. The sleeves are a bit long, but a good trade off as the back is long enough to cover your backside. A score of 100% in a New England spring shower. 80% on wind, but it is light weight. Easy to pack and love the color. It nice to buy something and be truly delighted with it!

Love this jacket! Lightweight, comfortable fabric.

I love, love, love this jacket! The color is perfect, as well as the fit with its mild stretch. I haven't worn it yet in a heavy rain but will be testing it soon! I do wish it had a zipper at the bottom to ease the fit when driving.

very light weight and really waterproof - a terrific rain jacket for travel and walking the dog

Lightweight and easy to pack, and I love the stretch. Fits very well with enough room for layers underneath.

This is a nice light raincoat for spring, summer, & early fall. I like the pockets, hood, vents, and all the features. I will say that it fits kind of big. I am 5'6" and 153 pounds and the small fits me with plenty of room for layering underneath. It falls to the bottom of my hips. I have tested it out during some light rain falls and it has held up and kept me dry. I haven't tested it during a major downpour yet.

This jacket has been worn more than I expected. I've used it in the cold winter months with thick wool layers underneath, cool spring days, and now warm spring rains. What I like about this jacket is that it has stretch for movement, the pit zips, the big hand pockets, the inside zip pocket, the hood that covers just right, the zip/snap closure in the front, and the beautiful Ocean Blue color. Particularly, the zip/snap combination of the front closure is great for when you want to really bundle up (zip and snap) or just throw on quickly and snap a couple snaps! It's lightweight, versatile, and looks good. The fabric is soft and comfortable. I'd love to see this exact design and color in thigh length with an adjustable waist and two-way zipper (hint hint, LLBean). This is a keeper!

Very light comfortable, breathable rain jacket and I love the color

It's pricey but I'm very happy I bought it. It's very comfortable and slightly fitted, just enough to not make it boxy-looking like my old rain jacket. I am very happy that LL Bean is continuing to make petite products; they're becoming difficult to find.

Very comfortable and lightweight. Excellent quality.
