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

I have wanted to purchase this for a few years but every one in the store had a "wavy" zipper; it must have been a production flaw - all sizes and all colors. I was thrilled to find this problem resolved and couldn't wait to buy one. I'm not a fan of the logo on the chest, but love the sweater. It is roomy and can wear over a medium weight top. The sleeves are a little long, so it will be fine if there is some shrinkage when washed.

This is my 3rd sweater fleece. My first was in gray, second in the oatmeal color and finally I purchased the navy. They are comfy and warm, wash well and good over a tee or as a second layer over a sweater. Love these!

I purchased this sweater fleece after admiring one a friend was wearing. I normally wear Size XS in LL Bean tops, but went with Size S in this to allow room for another layer underneath. I am long waisted, but the length is perfect. It is well made, cozy, and attractive. The deep pockets are convenient for my keys and phone. It has been perfect for this year's chilly spring weather in upstate New York. I do find that I need to wait for a sale, discount, or use Bean bucks to afford most LL Bean products, and this is no exception; as great as it is, I would not have purchased it at full price.

I bought this jacket in October 2017 (before the logo was added) and I wear it constantly. I truly reach for it most days when I leave the house. It is great in all kinds of weather. I love having zipper pockets to secure my phone. And even after all this use it still looks quite new. One thing I especially like is that the color I bought (kelp green) is neutral enough to wear in a variety of situations. I can wear it for a hike and later add a pretty scarf and wear it to a gallery opening or nice restaurant. Perfect to take traveling because it is so versatile, light weight but still warm. I love it so much I wanted to buy a second color BUT now I discover that a LLBean logo has been added! Hey, LLBean, big mistake..you have taken a very useful jacket and turned it into one only appropriate for very casual situations. I hope that they will reconsider and remove the logo, if so I will buy more of these jackets!

I have 2 sweater fleeces, one pullover style in Blue, one front zipper style in Pewter. They are perfect for New England cool Spring weather. Can also be worn under a light coat, if desired. I love both styles and colors..Cozy and Warm best describes them. Kangaroo style roomy pocket on pullover and 2 side pockets plus one sleeve pocket on front zip style. Would even consider buying another color.

I love this fleece but I too would like to remove the logo. One person said the logo came off easily with a seam ripper and the fabric underneath was untouched. Someone else posted that the fabric underneath was white and the jacket was ruined. Theoretically the fabric underneath should not be a problem. I would like to remove my logo but want to hear a few other success stories.

I love this jacket! I purchased it in evening blue, which is a beautiful color. It is true to size and very comfortable. It is the perfect jacket for a cool day!

I read several reviewers expressing their disappointment with the ugly logo tag on the chest, and I agreed. I was suspicious that the logo was sown on, not glued, so I took a chance and purchased the jacket, and, thankfully, I was correct; all it took was a sharp seam ripper and about 30 seconds, and it was off with no trace. I LOVE this jacket!!! It is sooo comfortable!!! Once I saw that I could easily remove the logo, I purchased another in my color pallet, and I hope they make one in 'Russet Orange.'

Soft, warm, flattering with the princess seams, and the petite medium fits great: arms and hem perfect. My biggest challenge is that petite items often don't allow for broad shoulders, but this jacket fits really well. Love the sienna color too.

Fit perfectly. Was lightweight but gave me such warmth on my travels to Spain.

I wear it everywhere. Just the right size and fit, so comfortable.

I am wearing this sweater fleece as I write this review. I find it both comfortable and stylish. I bought it in grey and am thinking about getting another in a different color as well. I would definitely recommend this to anyone.

I bought this sweater/jacket/sweatshirt after ordering one for my daughter who loved it so much she bought it in another color for herself. Mine fits like a jacket which is how I want to wear it. I bought it in a cream color and it is warm and I can wear it over a heavy layer underneath. The styling is very nice. I am pleased with this purchase.

Love this jacket!! I purchased the color kelp - just as pictured. I can wear it comfortably with a sweater underneath.

I love this jacket! Very comfortable fall/spring jacket, perfect for central Maine. I used the size chart and measured myself for the perfect fit. I am a bit big through the chest area but the size chart does allow for that. I definitely recommend this jacket.

Love this! The soft fleece inside is great against skin and the high collar keeps out the cold and breeze. Great inside in the winter as an extra layer, and outside this spring on cool morning walks. Pockets are convenient and roomy too. Highly recommend!

great colors but where id BLACK

Purchased for wife's birthday and she really likes it. Fits great and is warm and looks great.

Satisfied that description matched the product.

Love the jacket. It is thicker than I expected and is very warm. Good for late winter and early spring here in north Texas. Fits like a glove, the sleeves are the right length and the body is slightly fitted, just what I was looking for. I purchased a size small since I had planned on loosing some weight, have lost a few pounds, not much, and the jacket fits. If I would have ordered a medium it would have been too large, so I guess the jacket runs a bit on the large size.

This is everything I wanted, fits great, warm and looks nice with jeans as well as slacks. Great quality! Love it.

This is as comfortable as a fleece, but the inset sleeves and lined zipper casing in front give it a more tailored look and feel. It's heavy enough to wear out to get the mail, yet light enough to wear inside. I loved the grey one and finally purchased the rusty red one. They couldn't suit my retired life better than they do.

This 'jacket' wears like a sweater and looks so nice. I love how comfortable it is. I think LL Bean runs a little big so this Medium is roomy. It is nice for layering in the winter and great for transitional seasons. I've barely taken it off since I purchased it! Quality construction as well :)

I rarely buy anything full-price, so I can tell you this is an exceptional jacket. Perfect weight, excellent quality as always, and sleeves are long enough for this tall woman. Worth every penny.

I love the LL Bean logo!!!
