Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Primaloft Packaway Hooded Jacket

This jacket has a star for every category.....and I have found nothing wrong with it!! It has not rained when I wore it, but I am sure it will before long, but in the meantime it is perfect for "middle weather" (not too cold, not too hot). I love it!

Jacket is lightweight but warm. Easy to pack if you are traveling. Wore it to summit of Mt. Washington in New Hampshire with fleece underneath & was very warm. Temperature was below 30F with wind chill of 17F & snowing. Sizing was difficult, small was tight, medium had sleeves too long & finally settled on medium petite which is perfect for layering. Would recommend sizing up if you want to layer.

I love this jacket. Warm but not bulky, nice color (gray with orange trim), good pockets, hood, and it's my go-to for a long trip. Very useful, good looking, and comfortable.

Extremely lightweight jacket. This winter I will see actually how warm the jacket is. Seems to run a bit larger than expected but will work good for layering with sweaters and sweatshirts.

Excited to receive this jacket and take to Europe in two weeks. Lightweight but warm for moderate cold, fits great and love the blue color. Great purchase.

Nice light weight jacket. It's also a great wind breaker. Great for doing outdoor activities as it is very flexible but also keeps you warm on cooler days.

The jacket is light weight and can keep you very warm in cool temperatures of 30 degrees. Just throw it in the washer to clean; I hung mine to dry rather than put it in the dryer. After washing it looks brand new, no shrinkage.

Very lightweight yet warm and I love the way it fits.

I bought this to take on our 12 day trip to Canada and Alaska and it did not disappoint! It was the perfect top layer for cooler weather, takes up very little suitcase space and kept me dry (and warm) on a 3 mile hike in the pouring rain!!! It will now be my go-to fall/winter/spring jacket when my puffer is too warm to wear. I did order a size bigger than usual to accommodate broad shoulders - this is usually an issue for me with jackets being too tight across my shoulders and then huge everywhere else, but not with this jacket. I had plenty of shoulder room and even going up a size, it did not swallow me up!

Worked perfectly for our trip to Alaska! So lightweight and warm!!

This jacket was perfect for our trip to Iceland. The weather was 50s, windy and occasional rain. I wore an LL Bean Fleece sweater vest underneath and it kept me warm and dry.

I have different colors on this coat there Both xlarge I wanted to try the larger. It fits ok but it would be tight if I had a sweatshirt on. So I'm going to order a X-Large for now on

I bought this PrimaLoft Packaway Jacket for a trip to the Pacific Northwest and B.C. that would include a long whale watching excursion. It was perfect!! I loved that I could pack it easily into a small "package" that fit in my backpack when I didn't need it. When out to sea with the very cold wind this jacket kept me very warm. I don't like heavy bulky jackets either so this one is just right. I typically get neutral or black jackets but I got this one in blue and love it! I got compliments on the color. I also opted for the hooded version and am glad I did! I was hesitant because of some other reviews I've read about the fit, but it lays nicely around my shoulders when not in use and was great to have when needed!

I bought this for my trip to Europe this winter. It'll be perfect! Light and warm with room for layering. Also being able to pack in my carry on without taking up precious space!

Great light weight jacket. I used it for hiking throughout the Canadian Rockies and it it easly fit in my backpack. It was useful for rainy and cooler weather. I like the inside pockets.

Fits well and I love all the pockets - no need to carry a purse. Perfect for the cold foggy mornings in San Francisco and for the cool crisp Fall days and evenings in Tahoe

Perfect lightweight packable jacket. Bought for our Alaska trip and it worked out well. Fits well in a carry on backpack and was a great jacket to have along for most weather we encountered.

Bought to take on a trip to Iceland, just perfect.

Great jacket. Very convenient for traveling since it folds into its own pocket.

This is my favorite jacket. The softness and the style are perfect. Like the fact that it dips lower in the back. Don't let the thinness fool you because it is very warm!

This jacket feels light as a feather & is very high tech. I think it will be warm as all get out. The elasticized hood will stay on. Plus it is water resistant. A perfect find!

Great Jacket, fits well, is very light, packs into a ball, and is warm. I took it with me on my trip to Switzerland. It packed well. I weigh 168 lbs, and my large fit well. I recommend this beautiful jacket.

I bought this jacket for a trip, and it easily squished into small places in my luggage and daypack. It was warm, and the hood is a good feature. It's fitted. I received many compliments on the color.

I bought this jacket to take with me on a recent (as in last week) trip to Scotland. This may be one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. The jacket is warm without being hot, and while it's not waterproof, it is highly water resistant. It was truly perfect for my trip and will be useful at home, too. I am absolutely delighted that it was recommended to me by my sister and that I purchased this jacket. Highly recommend! 5!

Took this pack away jacket on a trip to Alaska. Lots of pockets with zippers. Fits well and folds into itself. Love the color too.
