Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Anorak

GREAT, product as always from LL Bean.

I was looking for a lightweight pull over jacket that would repel a little rain if necessary...the jacket fit perfectly...its just right on a crisp autumn day...also at a great price

Great cost for wind and rain

My last one lasted 10 years

This is the best! I like to layer for all kinds of weather. This exceeds my expectation.

got it bigger cause I wear light sweatshirt under it, fits well, color true to picture, rain repellent. no sweating

I've warn this in the rain and the rain did not win. I am a professional photographer shooting mostly sports. This jacket goes with me all over the country regardless of if it's going to rain. It's a great light jacket. The front zipper Goes pretty low which I really like, big front pocket to keep my shot list/credentials and a nice hood. Stay dry but look good staying dry.

I had one of these in the early 90s and was excited to see it offered again. It is pretty much exactly like I remember - a nylon anorak. It is lightweight, but does a good job cutting the wind and pairs well with a light fleece to temperatures in the mid 40s if you are active. It happened to lightly rain when I was wearing it, the water beaded off and cleared with a bit of a shake. Don't expect it to keep you dry in all day rain, or a downpour. It isn't goretex or one of the latest high tech fabrics. What it is is a good simple anorak that looks nice and stows away in a backback for a nice fall or spring walk in the woods.

The brown strings with the black jacket make it perfect to wear with black or brown boots. It's lightweight but keeps my husband warm on windy fall mornings. The fit is flattering. It doesn't stop at the waist. It falls to the upper thigh.

This is a great addition to my to my keep warm system. The pockets are useful and is put together well.

Great fit and quality of construction. Have worn this jacket in light and heavy rains and have stayed dry. I appreciate the front pockets especially.

I purchased the men's Anorak in Spruce. Great color. I am 5'9" and weigh 165 lbs. The men's medium fit me very well, I even had room for a nike sweatshirt underneath, and it was very comfortable. Very pleased with the purchase. I do a lot of walking, every day I can, and the anorak will come in handy. Recommended !!

My wife and I visited freeport and LLBean on July 22, 2018. We both loved this pullover so we both bought one. The quality of the pullover is what sold us.

I love this anorak! It looks great. It's lightweight but still very warmperfect for places with unpredictable weather. Reading the other reviews I was nervous about the sizing, but a medium fit me perfectly (I'm 5'9", 175 pounds with an athletic build). The arms look a bit fitted but I had full movement. The waist looks kind of wide but there is a draw-string to adjust it.

I love this jacket so much I sometimes pray for wet weather just so I can wear it.

I swear by LL Bean anoraks!! I was so disappointed when they were not available for the past few years and tried 3 different brands to find one similar to Beans. All 3 fell way short of the mark and I am thrilled that I now have the real thing! I did buy the color block anorak from Bean's but the two tone made my hips look so big I returned it and went for solid. I am going to buy another to put away just in case they are discontinued in the future!

This windbreaker is fabulous. Love the roomy front zippered pocket. Took it to the Bahamas on very windy days. Water resistant, too. Very comfortable. I have the extra large, tall...I am 6ft. and it is a perfect fit.

This is my third anorak from Bean. I have the XL reg. in spruce. I am 6'1" 200lbs and this fits perfectly. The long version would be too long for me. Yes, it's different than previous designs, but it's made well nonetheless. It's hard to find a nice simple windbreaker these days, I like having this simple jacket to take the edge off the weather when you need it.

Bought one for my husband and myself for our upcoming trip to the Azores. He didn't really think he needed one but he's used it so much already and he loves it! Fits well, made well and keeps us dry without keeping us too warm like our lined rain jackets. Perfect layering piece and will be perfect for those low 60 degree temps while hiking and whale watching on our trip!

I've been looking for something like this, specifically for travel, for quite a while now. Something That would keep me dry in wet weather, hood mandatory, lightweight, and that I could wear over layers. This really fits the bill. I'm 6'3", 230 so I bought the XXL Tall and I'm glad I did as it's a perfect fit, with room to wear it over anything from a t shirt, to a shirt, and or a fleece layer for warmth. Love the fact that this fits neatly into its own front pocket and very happy with the spruce color too. This will live in the front pouch of my suitcase for now on. For someone that likes to pack light it's great!

I originally ordered a 2XL bc I was worried that the XL would be to small. I am about 5' 10'' 215lbs. The 2XL was huge. Sent it back for a XL. The XL has plenty of room for layering underneath. Jacket is light and will be perfect during the Fall and Spring in the South. Also when its randomly 60 degrees in the winter.

This jacket I bought for my son who spends a lot of time outside! He loves this jacket to layer under as well to keep dry!

I Love this jacket!!!!!! I purchased it to wear on the water in windy conditions and with a fleece underneath on my bike. I take it with me everywhere I go, But today, it proved itself. I had just gotten out of my truck and set the alarm when it poured so hard, I thought it was just raining on me!!!( I'm in Florida ) I ran to get into the store, but it was a ways. Got in and started shopping and realized I was bone dry. Seriously? you had to be there!!! Great Anorak!!!! Buy it!!!!

I have a 20+ year old Bean Anorak. It is great to see a classic again being offered. The new version is improved with updated nylon cloth material. I am very pleased with my purchase, although, I still can't discard my old tattered friend.

This product was a birthday gift for my son who lives in Louisville. He is an avid trail biker (bicycle). He called me to say that he really liked it; having received the Anorak that day, he wore it on a 20-mile ride. He claimed that it blocked the wind very well. He hasn't worn it in the rain yet, however. He liked the style (which is saying something) and how it folds into its own pouch. His approval is my approval. And, I've decided to give it 5 stars although he has had it only a couple of weeks.
