Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Airlight Knit Pullover

L.L. Bean's Petite Medium tops fit me very well, with room for a lighter shirt underneath. I like everything about this particular top except that, as some synthetic fabrics do, it tends to trap and amplify even the lightest of perspiration odors, so I find I have to launder it after one or two wearings.

I ordered the petite in medium. I'm really pleased with the fit - the sleeves are definitely a medium length and it hits me at the hips. I'm an athletic build and have trouble with tops fitting my arms and chest. This fits nicely with room to go over a tshirt and fits over my hips. I purchased it to specifically have a thin warm layer that could go under my motorcycle jacket in the summer. I also liked that it had a kangaroo pouch which a lot of shirts like this do not have. I have not yet washed it so I can't speak to that. I got the light gray color and it's a lovely blueish/purple gray with blueish gray piping. Something that was strange - it came with a price tag of $59.99 and I paid $69.99 through my online purchase... so I'm guessing this is where they get you for the free shipping? Seemed odd.

This is a great, lightweight pullover. It runs a little snug, so if you want it roomy or to wear layers underneath, size up.

I bought two of these shirts. They are comfortable and wear well. Stains and grease easily wash out. I only have one complaint: the inner lining of the front pocket has so much fabric, it droops down below the hem of the shirt. I hope they fix this small flaw.

Honestly not my favorite Beans item but it's nice. Color blue is beautiful! The material is thinner and cut is more roomy than expected. Certainly good quality

Although I was expecting it to be bulky like a sweatshirt, it's really much lighter weight. It's soft and comfortable and I really like it. The neck stands up, which is hard to see from the pictures and if you snap it all the way to the top, it will close around your neck like a turtle neck. I wear a knit mock turtle neck under it and I think it looks nice.

I bought 3 of the air light top, very roomy and comfortable. So wish it didn't have the logo, afraid to take it off as I might damage the fabric. Expensive enough, do I need to advertise for them too? That's why not 5 stars

I already own two other Airlight tops. The wicking is amazing! This style is a little tight in the hips, but it fits well everyplace else!

I got a petite medium and it was a little too large but will work well under my raincoat for additional warmth, which was the reason I bought it. My biggest complaint was that I HATE loud logos on my clothing. Please Mr. Bean, if you must, something subtle would be adequate.

you probably won't we able to close the neck without help (or use pliers; awkward). Otherwise I love this pullover. I bought 3. Great layer for brisk walks; breathes but is insulating. I keep the neck unsnapped and use a gator. I would love to snap it though. If your fingers are strong, I would definitely give it 5 stars. Maybe in future, Bean might use different snaps. I bought mine in 2020, so maybe the new batch is different; don't know.

I bought this style as well as the crew neck pullover but was disappointed with how huge the logo label on the front was. Out came my seam ripper and after carefully removing the labels I am much happier with both items. I am not a fan of anything with a logo but at least a discreet logo at the hem or back of the neck/collar is not so intrusive.

I love that I can wear this as an everyday shirt. I don't have to be going outside, but also fits well when I want to go hiking or camping. It is very comfortable, it keeps you warm but not too hot. I got the fair aqua heather when I had blonde hair. It went well with my hair. Now that I dyed my hair brown it still goes well with it. The only issue I could find was that it seems to get wrinkly after the first wash. Yet because of the lines this isn't too noticeable.

Have two of these. Great pullover when in cool weather but not heavy enough for cold weather. Runs large. I normally wear a small but could have ordered an x-small

I'm enjoying my new airlight pullover quite a bit! If I'm being picky, I wish it was a bit slimmer and a tad longer though.

I really, really wanted to love this pullover. It has all the makings for the best pullover ever. It is lightweight and comfortable and perfect for in between weather. I took a star away because, while I do enjoy wearing it, it's annoying that it doesn't have some sort of elastic at the waist/sleeves. I find myself constantly pulling it down (I did get the petite size because I fit within the height parameters but still think it would do the same with the regular fit) at both my sleeves and waist. I bought it on sale so I kept it but if I paid full price, I probably would have returned.

I ordered the raisin color because it was on sale. When I received the item in the mail I was extremely excited! However, I tried it on, and unfortunately it was SO snug. I order 3X to be loose, and I've ordered this exact sweatshirt a week prior in 3X and it fit just the way I wanted it to. The sweatshirt says 3X, the tag says 3X, but when I place the new raisin sweatshirt above the one I purchased a couple weeks ago, it is visibly smaller.

Love this shirt because it's light weight and a fun color. Good size if just wearing by itself but would have gone bigger to wear over other shirts. Washes well. Hang dry. Also would have bought a few more colors but the price is very prohibitive. I'll wait for sale and see what colors are left.

I've been wanting this top for a long time and finally bought it. I always wear XS but this one is really baggy. I wish this came in XXS. It's nice but too roomy. I checked for a kids version but couldn't find one.

This has been my go-to pullover this season, it's perfect.. lightweight.. great for being in the sun, outdoors etc. The sleeves are a little larger which is slightly annoying but does not make me love it any less. I would like to have the lower part of the sleeves a little more fitted, but it could just be personal preference. I purchased an XL and I probably could have went down to L, but I prefer my pullovers a little roomier. I've gotten so many compliments on this pullover. I purchased the teal color and it's wonderful. I would 100% recommend this product!

I love this pullover - it replaced a raggedy sweatshirt, and is much lighter and fits better (the petite size is perfect for me - the right length and roomy to include something heavy underneath if I'm going for layers. I love the color which I would characterize as dusty periwinkle.The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is that the fabric snags - it doesn't get along with the mesh bracelet on my fitbit. I've had the fitbit for years and just have one other clothing item where this happens, so It is an issue with this fabric. Even so, I may consider getting another in a different color - even with a few snags, it's great for working in the yard, hiking, etc.

I love LL Bean's fleece pullover and wanted to get something a little more lightweight for the spring/ cooler Maine nights. I'm an RN, a Mom, a chicken Mama and a gardener. My hands are generally in rough shape - dry from frequent washing and calloused/abraided from working in the dirt, the coop and around the house. I feel like I have to be careful with the material as it catches on my hands. I don't think it will actually pill up from my hands but it feels as if it *could*. As other reviewers mentioned, the front pocket does sag down even with a lightweight item in it. I probably should have ordered an extra small as the whole fit seems larger than LL Bean's fleece pullovers I own. Not sure that this will hold up as long as the LL Bean fleece pullovers, it definitely feels more dainty!

I wear either a medium or a large when it comes to tops depending on how things fit (I'm tall and slim). This one definitely runs large overall, so I am returning for a medium. Looks lovely otherwise so I am looking forward to having it arrive.

I have this in two colors, it washes especially well and air dries super fast. It's very lightweight and seems like something I'll be able to wear year round. I've worn it in the winter and i expect that I'll be able to wear it on chilly summer evenings. My only complaints are that 1) it's cut very straight and narrow, no room really for hips. You can see that on the model as well, so the picture is accurate (I have this issue with a lot of LLBean clothing so I make sure to size up to a 3x) and 2) the wind goes right through it. While it's warm enough, on windy days I need an additional layer to keep out the wind or I'm freezing. I guess you can't have it all, I think it's just the single downside of the awesomely light fabric.

I really like this pullover. However, I bought this item from the store, not the discount store, and the LL Bean tag has been sewn on upside down.

Nice material. Lightweight pullover. Most LLBean items I buy are Medium and fit fine but for some reason the sleeves on this pullover are too short. You can't tell in the picture because they pull the sleeves up. I would return it if I hadn't washed it.
