Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Quilted Full Zip Sweatshirt

Beautiful colour and great style. I bought a size up so make bulky winter clothes would fit under it. To no avail. The sleeves were too small to get on with a long sleeve t-shirt.

Loved the jacket. I returned my Oetite Med for a Petite Lrg. I have a 38 " bust. According to the charts it should have fit. Not happy about paying for a return when I am replacing it with same item.

I normal wear size medium tall but that size was too big for me for this item. Otherwise it's a good product.

I don't like how the ribbing around the bottom flares out. Could be tighter. I thought if I wash it maybe it would shrink .Nope!

Bought a quilted jacket for my husband a few years ago and it was super cute-have always wanted a ladies version. Good quality but very boxy fit, gray is nice, pink is really dull and old-fashioned I'm returning both

It is a wonderful sweatshirt, but the fit is way too snug, both the body and the arms. I couldn't wear anything but a thin tee under this, which is useless for the winter. So back it goes!

Zipper impossible to zip when wearing jacket. Fabric is fine. Will return.

I like the quilting but the neck is too high and bulky. It doesn't conform well to the body. I wish the zipper looked less like what is on guys clothes.

Runs 2 sizes larger than usual. Smaller size not available in color I liked. Returned

This is a warm and well designed product. However, the fabric wears very quickly. Holes appear in the front by the zipper within a year of normal wear (so one winter). I have recently ordered a second navy one to stand in as my "good" piece. I did return a gray one shortly after purchase last year because multiple holes appeared.

This is really a nice looking jacket. Problems for me are the fabric in the sleeves and side panels is a substantial poly/cotton fleece, which is too hot for me. The quilted fabric of the front and back is thinner and feels like more cotton in the blend, which I like. I wish the whole jacket was made of the quilted fabric. Strange to have the sleeves be hotter than the body; usually a jacket is warmer in the body. The shape is also quite boxy, not flattering to my slender figure. I haven't washed it to see if it would shrink up a bit, I have decided to return it.

This is a very nice warm cozy sweatshirt/jacket in a large regular, but the length is much too long. I also had the large petite but the arms were too tight. Unfortunately, I will be returning.

I have this sweatshirt in the quarter zip and love it. The materials are soft and comfortable. This full zip jacket didn't feel as comfortable, although it fit well. The cuffs were rough against my skin and the zipper was a bit jagged. I was so excited to get this but sadly sent it back. The cream color was pretty and it felt well constructed. I may just order another pullover.

I am astonished by the number of "fits as expected" reviews. This is my size, in any number of LL Bean garments I own or was gifted this holiday. It is much too small, especially because it is meant to be an outer layer, and many of the reviews mention shrinkage. In addition to general width, the sleeves are too tight. I am so disappointed that I need to go through the "mail it back and wait for a replacement" ritual, since there is no store within 75 miles, but I will because I still like the sweatshirt.

This sweatshirt is beautiful in cream, except for the zipper. Not sure what the designer was thinking with that choice! The fabric and the quilting design create a polished look but the zipper is a heavy bronze metal which would be much better suited to a tent! I love the fit, the style and the fabric; I'd definitely keep it if it weren't for the zipper, it's a deal-breaker. On the plus side, there's no chest logo, only logos at the hip and on the zipper pull. If this sweatshirt had a more appropriate zipper I'd keep it, give it 5 stars and recommend it to everyone. Sadly, it's going back. Bummer.

This is second time I have ordered this sweatshirt in last couple years. I already called customer service bc the zipper pull is missing from this item- I spoke w customer service about the issue.

After wearing the jacket indoors for a few months there are small snags and holes throughout the jacket. Overall not worth the price and would not recommend to purchase.

I really like the style of this jacket, but I wish the sizing was more consistent. I have the navy blue one and it fits perfectly so I ordered the new brown heather color. It's a bit wider and about 2 inches longer. I was hoping it would shrink in the wash, but it didn't and now I can't return it. You would think for the price there would be more attention to the sizing.

I have the same issue as Carol - the quilted panel has big holes in it now, exposing some black part underneath. I've had mine for a while now, but this problem developed maybe a year into having it. I was shocked that something from LL Bean had such a major quality flaw. I still love and wear this at home for chilly days - it's very cozy - but charging $90 is nuts if the product can't hold its appearance for more than a year.

I wish they would once again make this jacket with the hood!

The quilted sweatshirt is a beautiful color. Alas, it is too big. The quality of the material is not what I expected either. L.L.Bean used to have great quality clothing and items fit. Quality has gone downhill. Item is being returned along with two other items I ordered.

I liked the style of this sweatshirtcasual, but much nicer than my many "I'm going to do yard work" sweatshirts . When I received it, I didn't like that the brass zipper looked so tarnished and rather dingyI didn't think it went well with the classic style or the pretty pink color. But even worse for me was that the overall fit wasn't good. Although it fit well in most places, and I could have worn a Henley shirt underneath it, the sleeves were snug, even though I only had a short sleeved top on. It also seemed a bit too large and boxy through the hips area. So although I loved the idea, I'm returning it and will keep shopping for a different classic sweatshirt.

I bought this jacket in January and was very happy with the fit and style, so much so, I bought another one as a gift. But tonight I noticed there are already 2 holes forming and I haven't worn it that often. Very disappointing.

The sweatshirt is not attractive and the style is frumpy. The fit was baggy and I returned this item.

I have two of these and really loved them...at first. Like some of the one star reviewers, I have holes on the sleeves and on the front in the upper layer of the fabric on both sweatshirts. I would like to buy more, but please user a sturdier fabric.
