Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Bean's Sweater Fleece Full Zip Jacket

I want to give this jacket 5 stars but won't. It comes in women's TALL which I appreciate and it's wicked warm. But my blue jacket sports WHITE pocket LINING. It is like they took a short cut in sewing and design. I think the blue jacket deserved blue lining. I'll give it 4 stars and will hope the LL Bean design team reads this review. I'm sewing blue material in the pocket so white is not visible.

the first order was the wrong size and the zipper did not work properly...however the replacement was the correct size and the zipper did work....very pleased with the jacket

I got this fleece as a gift in blue, and I love everything about it except the color of the pocket lining. It is white - which if you leave the pockets open like I do to access my keys and phone, it shows the white. It would be much better if it were a darker color to match rather than white.

Just not a good fit for my body. Mailed it back. Thank you.

I live in Northern CA, so this jacket is perfect for cool morning walks in the Bay area.

I already bought one color.love it but need a black. When will that color be available?

I bought this for a trip to the Rockies. I have many LLBean items that are all small size and fit perfectly. I returned and purchased a medium which will be great with a layer under this. Very good quality.

I don't own this jacket but would love to. Would love to see this sweater fleece full- zip jacket offered in green (a warm autumn green). I would definitely buy one. I gave it 4 stars based on other reviews. Would get 5 if it was offered in a nice olive heather or sea green heather.

I ordered this jacket because I liked the color and the zippered pockets. The fabric is nice and cozy. But I did not like the sleeves, which I felt were narrow, more like a sweater's than a jacket's. After much thought, I returned the jacket.

Very nicely made zip up, the only problem was the collar didn't stay folded well.

I loved the look and ordered, based on reviews and a friend's sizing. I am between a medium and large; I ordered medium, and it fits, but there is no extra room. Jacket is VERY warm, a heavier weight than I anticipated. It will be good for cold mornings. There is not much stretch to the fabric. The fleece inside is cozy.

Warm, not wind proof, but toasty. Have exact sweater fleece with 1/4" snap opening in Med. Difficult for me to get off & arms too snug over anything but long sleeve tee. Much happier with this fit of full zip & size L. Just tried it on, but haven't actually worn it yet since it's summer on AL! Also have the long sweater vest & very happy with it. Wish they had 2 way zipper!

I ordered this sweater in a tall, which was fine, but the fit is very slender.

Good looking jacket but difficult getting arms in and out especially if wearing a sweater.

I like the jacket and the color. I wish the inside backing of the pockets weren't white. They stand out against the blue jacket color if the jacket is unzipped.

Great looking fleece. My only complaint is that the sleeves are very snug making it difficult to fit over long sleeves.

I love the color of my new jacket. It is well made. The only issue is it is too large. It fits to my shoulders but is way big every where else. I can almost double it over. I am keeping it though because it will definitely keep me warm. If I were to go a size down, it would not fit at the shoulders. Just not fitted correctly.

Very well made and attractive. Fit my 5'3 126 lbs frame well. A little heavier than I thought and the collar is a bit stiff. Maybe that will chance with washing

Runs a little small. I always wear a small petite at LLBean. The sleeves and overall length are short. I kept the jacket because I love the color and warmth.

My husband has a similar jacket that he loves so I wanted one too. It's just what I wanted except for one thing. I wear a plus size and it fits well except for the width of the upper sleeves. They fit OK with a short sleeved shirt but with even the lightest of long sleeved shirts the arms are too tight, hard to get into and uncomfortable. I'll keep it it but only to wear with short sleeves. So disappointing.

This fleece jacket is very nice. It is a bit smaller and the material is a bit stiffer than a competitors version. I normally wear a size large, and the large was fine, but I would have preferred it to be slightly bigger. As others have mentioned it's rather odd that the inside of the pockets are cream colored/not the color of the jacket. This jacket is nice, but the competitors jacket is quite a bit nicer.

I love this jacket, the color is beautiful. The one thing I would change is the color of the pockets, the white is jarring when you see it.

Great fit and warmth. Pocket zipper broke after wash.

Love the fabric and style, comfortable and great for out and about. Would buy this again. Size seems to be spot on.

Fits well and three zipped pockets are great - plus there are two inside pockets (no zip). The heathery outer layer is a sweater knit, with a fleecy inside layer. My only complaint was that one of the pocket zippers failed after the first few wearings - the tab disconnected from on side of the zipper teeth. I was able to get it back on and hand-sewed across the bottom, which I hope will permanently solve the problem.
