Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Quilted Sweatshirt 1/4 Zip Pullover Long Sleeve

I love this sweatshirt. It is not super warm but it is cozy. After reading other reviews I am nervous to wash it but it has gone through one wash/dry and come out okay. Please make this in petite hunter green!

As a small petite woman, I always have trouble finding clothes that fit, but this sweatshirt fits near-perfectly! The only way it could be improved is if there was a little more elastic at the bottom so it was more fitted at the hips.

I ordered this in the rose color and loved it. Unfortunately, the medium was too small and the large was too big. Had it fit, I would have purchased it.

After purchasing, I was told LLbean products run large. I wish I would have known this ahead of time! I am pretty much always a size medium and I needed to size down in all of the items I purchased. Good to know for next time because the quality is great!

The stitching on the shirt was very nice. The color was right too. The shirt collar allowed cold Minnesota weather in; that is my only criticism.

I love this sweatshirt. Fits slightly smaller than I was hoping but it is a great weight.

This sweatshirt runs small. I order petite XS for most everything. This time I had to exchange it for the size small which fits fine

This is very well-made. I had ordered a medium, but it had very long arms and a long torso, so I returned it for a petite medium, which fit very well. I would prefer a full zipper in the front, and would recommend that for future iterations of this great product.

This sweater is very nice for a cold day. It does fit snug, so you can't wear anything too bulky underneath. Its like a fancy sweatshirt :)

I ordered the shirt in a large petite as I wanted to wear a shirt underneath. Overall, the shirt is a bit large especially around the bottom hem. The sleeves are also a bit long and I had to fold the cuff back. I love the color and it is very warm. Probably should have ordered my usual medium.

Over the last 13 months I have purchased 7 of these sweatshirts in different colors. Most have all fit pretty much the same. The navy ran the smallest and the sleeves are kind of short. My most recent order included the pink, mint and gold. The pink is the best fitting by far as the sleeves are the longest I have received. I wouldn't say this runs large but I definitely have enough room to layer with a tank and denim shirt underneath. It falls past my waist, but doesn't cover my backside. If I flip the waist band under, it comes to my waist. If LL Bean would make the hooded and colorblock in plus, I'd probably buy those too.

I love this quilted sweatshirt and have multiple ones in different colors. It's cozy. It feels casual, but it looks a bit nicer than a standard sweatshirt. My only complaint is that I've had three sweatshirts that developed small holes in the quilted part on the front. Two of them developed the holes within a week of purchasing them (and I was able to easily exchange them). The third one developed a small hole after a year or so of use. I'm trying to figure out if something is "catching" on the quilted part to cause a snag, but I've not figured out anything so far. I'm pretty gentle with them and wash them in cold water without any other clothes that could snag (like velcro, bras, etc). I do love them, just wish the quilted part held up a little better!

Runs small, but otherwise like it a lot.

The Quarter-Zip Pullover provides a very slimming, flattering look. I usually wear a Small (6-8), but I returned it and purchased a Medium, instead. The Small size fit everywhere, except it was a little snug in the arm/shoulder area (while wearing a thin turtleneck underneath). The Medium size was a little large around my hips, but fine everywhere else. Fortunately, I was able to sew a seam on each side, and it fits much better now. I love the dark gray heather color.

The fit is good, except this: The sleeves are rather more tight than Bean's usual, ample fit, or perhaps since they do not contain lycra, I'm used to the little bit of stretch. The body is warm, but the sleeves are less warm--polyester/cotton. Also, the hem band is sturdy and wide. For my petite size, there was a lot of band. I restructured my hem and band from 3-inches to about 2-inches. Finally, I thought the color would have been more red than it is in this garment from the picture online. In my opinion, the actual color is more burgundy-red. I like it!

Great fabric and style Always wish that most LLBean products had about 2 inches more on length and a little more in sleeve length Will wear around house and errands

Love the quality but my arms are a little large, and the shirt felt a little snug, I would suggest a bigger size.

I had hoped it would feel a bit softer~~more like a cozy sweatshirt in this style. I'd prefer a shade lighter so it looks clearly green. HOWEVER, the quilting, fit, raised collar & pockets are just what I wanted. Very flattering fit.

I'm tall and thin, but with broad shoulders, so it's really hard to find shirts that have enough room without being WAY too big overall. This is perfect in a size Tall/Small, and soooo warm and comfy, with a nice long neck. Would definitely recommend.

I wear a small in most LL Bean products. I purchased the Airlight quarter zip in a medium and it fit exactly as I expected, large enough to layer with plenty of room. So I purchased this quilted quarter zip in a medium. It is NOT large enough to layer and fits just like all my small tops. Thankfully it fits well, now just hoping it doesn't shrink after I wash.

Thank you LL Bean for offering tall sizes. Please offer more shirts/sweaters/fleece in TALL sizing and colors. This 1/4 zip pullover is great. Two compliments on my first day of wear. Sleeves are long enough, body is not boxy. Body is long enough. Arm holes are cut well (not tight). My only CON: I'm wearing it for the first time and I notice a tiny hole in the chest. I'll contact LLBEAN customer support to see if I can get an exchange.

Great product. Fits a little small for my liking. But probably true to size

I usually order a Large in tops, especially one like this one that says slightly fitted as I like a looser fit. This was way too big for me, and quite a bit longer (27") from shoulder to hem. Besides just looking too big, it looked and fit more like a tunic than sweatshirt. I could wear leggings with it, but that is not what I bought it for, to wear with jeans. Not sure if I will get a medium, because I think it may end up being longer than I want a sweatshirt to be. It is a quality product, and really nice hand on the fabric.

I really do love this sweatshirt. It is casual enough to wear around the house but also has some structure to it so it can be worn while out and about and still look polished. I like the fit but I do find that the sleeves are somewhat short. I'm tall (5'9) and don't have very long arms but I do think if they were just an inch longer it would be more comfortable. I find that I pull them up for a more comfortable fit when walking around. I bought the burgundy color and I love it. I would like to purchase another one in Navy but I may order a Large to see the difference.

I tried this on in the store and loved it so I ordered 2 different colors in petite. The charcoal fit perfectly and I felt that it was proportioned correctly. The red one (same exact size) was 1.5-2" shorter in torso length which, for me, threw the proportion way off. This may have been the result of different folks/suppliers making their items so they were probably made in 2 different places or maybe different lots/different runs but this red one (my favorite color) was a no go for me... I will need to return it and maybe take a chance on another one.
