I love this jacket. It is warm but not too bulky. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because the zipper came off the track on one of the pockets less than a week after getting it.

I bought this in two colors. It's very soft and comfortable. Medium weight, perfect for fall walks. Slightly fitted, it looks nice too. My one complaint is the length of the sleeves- they are pretty short for a fleece sweater. They barely cover my wrists when I extend my arms. Wish they were longer but not a deal breaker.

Warm and cozy little jacket! I love this jacket and would give it 5 stars if the sleeves didn't feel so short! Love the color and feel!

Unfortunately, I had to return this sweater b/c of the white pockets. I wear my sweaters unzipped so they were too noticeable. Hence, my 4 star rating. Everything else was quite nice about the sweater. It is a bit more fitted, so if you are in between sizes, I would order up. I normally wear a petite medium, and this size fit well but just a bit more snug. I would have kept the sweater if the pockets are been a different darker color. I

This jacket is really comfortable. I usually wear a medium but followed the advice of others on here and bought a size up and got a large. It fits nicely. The reason I gave it a 4 is because the pockets are white. Wish they were the same color as the blue in the jacket.

I bought this jacket in Fall 2019 when it had a hood on it. I love the jacket but why did you remove the hood? I used the hood often.

It runs a bit smaller than the three others I have purchased. It is disappointing that I can only wear very light weight shirts under it. Sure can't wear a light sweater. The sweater fleece has always been my favorite jacket, but now I am afraid to order another one.

Warm & well made. I love the multitude of pockets (especially in a women's piece of clothing!). The only complaint I have is the extremely stiff collar that will not lay down so that it ends up rubbing on your face. I with there were a little hide snap on each side to help. I plan on get two small decorative pins or maybe even see snaps on myself.
For sizing, I'm 5'8" range between 120-130lbs thin built with a long torso & smallish chest. I purchased a tall medium which fits perfectly with a tshirt (short or long sleeve). Sleeves sit tight below my wrist & the back hits squarely mid rear end. This is a great chilly spring or fall day jacket you know the days when it's freezing in the morning & night, but gets warm/ hot in the middle, so you feel like you need multiple outfit changes! Also awesome for those stores & buildings that like to drop the thermostat to freezing temps. Definitely a great wardrobe addition bit more put together than a hoodie.

I'm between sizes and I bought the larger one. It is a little too tight. The sleeves are a bit tight too, and the lining pushes the sleeves of my shirt up. I'm undecided whether to exchange for a larger size (I NEVER wear that size!) or just return it. It's a shame, I do like the fabric and coziness.

Nice weight for fall and spring. I like the quality of the zipper and overall fit is strue to size. It does pill a bit more than I would like.

Love the fit! But not very warm, cool wind blows directly thru the fabric. Disappointing.

Very nice, but it ran too small for me to keep. First time my usual LL Bean size was too small.

I like the petite fit, and I think this fleece will be cozy warm as out temperatures cool. Having bought several fleeces in the past from LLBean, I'm disappointed in the fabric which is not fleecy soft at all, and the jacket is quite heavy weight so it's just not suitable for me for travel. The blue color is perfect for me though, so I hope to get good wear from it.

I have this jacket in 3 colors. My only complaint is with the Arctic Blue. When the pockets are unzipped the white lining is revealed! Honestly it looks like my underwear is showing! It's a nuisance to have to zip the pocket each time I put my keys in and out! Other colors have a muted gray or the sailcloth has off white. I've mentioned this to Customer Service before and hoped that this Fall's version might have rectified the problem. Unfortunately I just learned that the blue is still the same white lining!

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.

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.

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.
