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

This is a warm, comfortable jacket that looks and feels great. The color is exactly as pictured and very nice. The quality and fit are excellent. One problem that drives me crazy- the pockets are lined with a nice thin strong fabric but it's white! I use the pockets constantly so I don't want to keep them zippered. They gap open and show this glaring white lining which really takes away from the look. I don't know if other colors have the same thing.

Warm, but a little stiff to wear all day. I don't reach for this one all the time, but I do like it. It's the right size, but I feel as if I can't move my arms the way I want to.

This is a warm, comfortable jacket that I now have in a second color. I have both the aqua (teal?) and arctic blue. I reach for these when it's really cold. I normally wear size M but got these in L because the M seemed a little snug for wearing over a quarter zip top, which I mostly wear in winter here in the Northeast. I really like the contrast color trim on the blue but downgraded one star because the pockets in that one are lined in white which really shows when they are unzipped. The aqua pockets are lined in gray, which doesn't stand out as much. Same color pocket linings would have been better. This has a nice long length in the body to add to its warmth, without looking or feeling like a tunic. I'm pleased with these.

Collar comes up a little too high, but full zip is great and it has two nice pockets that I love

Not necessarily the best in class garment, but a very good value and a trusted brand.

Great winter sweater, but could be a tad longer to look better with form fitting pants. Super quality that isn't found in most clothing in retail stores. Absolutely higher quality than most sweaters sold online that are thin and need to be thrown out after a years use.

Super cute but ran quite large. Because it's so big it looks bulky and frumpier than i would like.

I bought one in purple and arctic blue...both lovely. They're a bit large. Long over my shoulders and not as form fitting as I like. I kept one and will return the other.

Great color/heather appearance. It feels a little stiff to be a sweater; certainly more of a jacket appearance and feel. I like the elasticized sleeve cuffs and zip up to throat warmth of the collar.

This is the second sweater fleece I've purchased in Tall Medium: the first was last year in Faded Eggplant (not a favorite color but best alternative offered in Tall sizes); this winter season the Arctic Blue was offered in Tall and I went of it. The fit is good; it's not wide in the body. Sleeve and body length are good and back dips down a bit which I like. The zipper pockets are a plus. And it's warm, layered over turtle neck or long sleeve tee. Gave it 4 stars as I would have preferred a solid color rather then the heather-y colors.

Color, availability in tall, material all super. The garment is labeled sweater and jacket- I'm would consider it mainly an outdoor jacket because it is bulky. Would love to see a less bulky version of it for an indoor sweater. I appreciate these Tall size options.

I gave this a 4 star because of the fit. It was too snug. Maybe someone with a smaller waist than myself would be comfortable wearing this. The fabric was really nice and soft. I liked having the little zip pocket on the sleeve. You could fit your keys and some identification in it while out for a jog, or a walk.

The sweater fleece was probably a 5 but only tried it on and never wore it. This blue and the color in the were not the blue I received. Would have kept it if this was the actual color.

Great fleece, comfortable to wear and fit forming. Need larger size if wearing with layers. Highly recommend.

Great sweater fleece cardigan! The small fit me almost perfectly - wish, though, that it had another inch around the bottom (hips/tummy area).

nice jackets runs very small couldn't get a larger size, needed to return it.

Love it. Would get five stars if there was a lining of some kind to make it softer to skin. But it is comfortable as is, planning on getting another one. Thank you.

Great quality! Fits perfectly. I especially appreciate that it is offered in Tall sizes! The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars is that the pocket lining is beige, and shows when pockets are unzipped. A matching or complementary color would have been a better choice!

I love the jacket except the pocket linings are WHITE. LLBean- who watches the product!? The linings should have been some shade of blue! I'm disappointed as you guys need to pay attention to the details. You used to. I'm not returning it but I'm just sad.

I ordered my usual size(medium) and is a little tight. I kept it anyway and ordered a large in a different color. It fits perfectly

This jacket is well made, a lovely color, and fits well. My only reservation is that I expected the fleece to be softer on the outside.

Attractive, nice color, moderate weight, true to size. The only criticism I have as the inside of the garment has large off-white inner pockets made of a different light-weight material that looks out of place. The pockets should be the color of the jacket.

Great fit & warmth, but the collar pushes in a little & hits my face, which is annoying.

Nice stitching, solid construction, soft and warm on the inside and classy and sporty on the outside. Only drawback is it started pilling slightly and I've only had it a few weeks.
