Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 1912 Sherpa-Lined Cardigan

Cozy, Warm, Flattering, Well made, I love it! Luckily I have skinny arms, the sleeves are snug. Still love it and would buy again.

Very Warm Sweater....maybe it could have a belt or button for a little more shape and style?

Armhole size need to be larger. Too snug at under arm. No stretch for comfort.

I was slightly disappointed when I saw that the outside was like a sweat shirt mayerial.

The cardigan is comfortable and warm but a bit bulky and awkward. I wanted it to wear around the house when it is very cold, and it is perfect for that.

This is odd construction. There is no lining in the sleeves nor in the torso area under the sleeves on the sides. Warm due to the soft fuzzy collar. It could use a button for closure.

Love everything about this cardigan except thta it shrank after washing. Can still wear it, just have to wear thin tops under it. Otherwise it fit fine. Feels warm and soft, just like it looks.

This cardigan has delicious sherpa lining...but ONLY front panels and back, not the sides and not the sleeves. The sleeves are a snug fit, no room for long sleeve t-shirt. Disappointed. Returning.

Shorter than I thought. Definitely not oversized even though it appears so in the photos. It is warm and the color is beautiful.

This is very nice. Thick and warm. Runs a little large. Really like the maroon color. It'll come in handy this winter.

I love this cardigan but the sleeves are too short. I was able to lengthen them and kept the garment.

I thought this would be the same as last year's Cardigan, but the fleece and the Sherpa are thinner fabrics. The fit across the shoulders is snug. With those changes it will not keep me as warm as my similar garment from 2021. I use these as robes

Beautiful color, fits perfectly. Still in the 80s here so I don't know how warm it will really keep me, but I'm very pleased with it.

Warm and cozy. I just wish it had a tie or fastened shut in some fashion.

This sweater/jacket is so warm, soft and cozy. I'm looking forward to wearing it a lot this fall & winter. And it's very attractive. The teal color is so lovely.

Very warm & comfortable. Looks very good on. Color is rich.

Good quality, thick, and soft inside lining. Outside cotton shell isn't what I expected for the price. Overall nice warm sweater.

I ordered this in a size up after reading some reviews, which was a mistake. The cardigan was way too large and very boxy. A medium probably would have been fine but I didn't reorder because the cardigan is not as fitted as I would have liked.

I use this piece as insulation between a thin base layer and my LL Bean Baxter State parka. It is VERY warm when used this way! Best for 20 deg F or colder, in fact. If I wear this in warmer temps, it's like I'm in a sauna. Worn by itself, it looks like a short bathrobe. Which is too bad. Probably wouldn't wear it out as a standalone piece. I wish the pockets were larger; why not make the pockets deeper, all the way to the bottom hem? Give it an outdoorsy "cargo pocket" aesthetic. Note: the sleeves run a little snug on athletic arms. This snugness is helpful for layering, but not as comfortable for lounging around the house. The shawl collar can be flipped up around the neck to keep out the wind! In short, I'd call this an excellent parka liner inspired by fleece sweatpants and cozy faux fur bathrobes. Minus one star for mild frumpiness.

It is warm and comfy. The only modification I would have liked is a snap or hook to allow closure.

It's very cuddly, soft and warm. Well made, but wish there was a button. It makes you look larger than you are, but perfect for Mrs Claus with the red color and white fleece.

Gift was well received but a little disappointing. We expected everything but the sleeves to be fleece lined. However, the front panels were the only portions lined. The inside back was not.

This is a wonderful soft cardigan, but it is very boxy

Very comfortable and cozy but the sleeves are not quite long enough and a bit narrow and skimpy. I got petite large and think maybe a regular would be better for my long arms. Considering exchanging it.

I bought this to wear in the house winter nights instead of wrapping in a blanket. I bought size medium to ensure it would fit over a sweater, and it does. It is too bulky and floppy (with the open cross over front) to wear while cooking or doing chores. IMO it is overpriced for a layer that looks too sloppy to wear anywhere but close to home. The sleeves are unlined sweatshirt material.
