Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Airlight Knit Pullover

Sleeves were too short. Body was weirdly billowy, not very flattering.

Just ok in terms of quality and look. Definitely lightweight. Fit as expected per size chart. Gray color kind of blah. I have to discriminate carefully with my budget, and this didn't make it!

Last year I bought the grey color in Regular Small. I loved the fit! Not to long and body of shirt not too big. I ordered the blue one this year in SAME size. Too big! The sleeves were long and so was length. I sent it back. I got a Petite Small. However I think I should have gotten a regular extra small. This is a super nice top IF you get the right size!!!! I am 5'61/2 and 115 pounds!

Snags easily. After one washing, before wearing, and one wearing on an airplane, there were several snags all over the pullover. No idea how the snags happened. I returned it.

This is perfect for Late Spring/Summer/Early Fall when you think you might want long sleeves but also don't want to sweat. Unfortunately at this time I was looking for something a little heavier so I did have to return this item.

Not real airtight & thinner than my vest of same brand.

Received replacement size of this and it fit great. Didn't realize the stitching in the front at the seam across the chest area was not done correctly before I took off the LLBean label, which I prefer not to have on there. Be aware that if you take off the label, it cannot be returned. So, I liked the pullover, but unfortunately the stitching was wrong and now I'm stuck with it. Learned my lesson to be sure to check stitching and everything else before taking off the label! Just wish LLBean would go to a more discreet label on their products.

I wish the sleeves were longer. Otherwise very comfortable.

Really like the way this pullover looks but the material does not provide any warmth.

The pullover is OK but it is narrow at the bottom but not form fitting in the middle so fit is kind of blousy.

I own two of these and absolutely love them. I wear it to play pickleball outside. It is extremely comfortable providing just enough warmth and complete freedom of movement. The front pocket is handy to hold extra balls. Unfortunately, this last top which I ordered in a Petite M was way too long in the body length and the sleeves. This is the reason for a 3 star rating rather than the 5 star. I am hoping it was just mislabeled and the sizing not changed. I sent a picture comparing the new top to my current one and requested the same color and size in hopes that this one was truly just mislabeled!

I did not order a women's petite in this item the men's x-large looks to be adequate. It does look a little smaller for a x-large so might want to size up

I hate to complain. I received the Burgundy color in Tall XL as a gift! I'm appreciative of the arm length and body length as I'm a tall gal at 6 feet. (Wish LL Bean sold more tall merchandise). I sport a shirt under but I'm still cold. I prefer the LL Bean full zip "sweater fleece" which I own in blue and the "pullover sweater fleece" in a light gray Heather. Those are my "go to" New England winter warm pieces.

Purchase the Bold Aqua Heather, super color but it felt like I was a sausage in it. Needed to have husband get to help getting over my head. Might have gotten the proper size but did not fit like all my other Bean purchases. With a sigh need to return and look for something else.

Bought 2 of these in different colors/sizes. One Large and one Medium. Initially, the Medium fit better than the Large but once I washed it (delicate/cold water) and hung it to dry, I noticed it shrank a lot. Too fitted in the middle and arms way too short now. Sad because I can't wear it anymore and I just purchased it. The Large is ok. Also, the material is 100% polyester so it doesn't "breath" well and makes me really hot.

Ugh this is SO CLOSE to perfect, but ... not. The fabric is lovely--super soft and perfect for those slightly cool days. But I'm 5'8", and it's like four inches too long on me (and I got the regular size, not the tall). Everything else about the fit is perfect (shoulders, arms, etc). But the real killer is that the bottom of the kangaroo pocket is at the very bottom seam of the shirt. So if you put anything in it (like, you know, a phone), the pocket hangs below the bottom of the shirt, which is even weirder given the length of the shirt. If they updated the length and fixed the pocket problem, I'd absolutely buy this again because it's otherwise excellent. But if you're looking for tunic length and only want to use the pocket to keep your hands warm, you might love this.

It's definitely super light. I am used to the super thick and warms ones and thought this would be a slightly lighter version for fall. This is super thin and not what I was expecting.

I like this sweater, but the stitching on the sleeve cuff just started unraveling and I just bought it a few weeks ago.

The color faded after the first wash in cold water. I've two other air light knit pullovers and they have still retained their color after multiple washing. That said, the air light pullover is great for hiking when it's 50 degrees at the start of the hike. The air light pullover keeps one warm and cool and then crushes into a small lightweight bundle for a backpack.when it starts to get really warm. Please work on quality control.

This sweater is lovely, with one major flaw, the waistband is made to be fitted. While this flaw is not uncomfortable, it is not doing anyone any favors! I returned and will be looking for a different style.

I really likede style with the kangaroo pocket. It fit well and the color was great. But I knew it would not take long before it was full of pulls. Like others commented, the fabric is the kind that will pull and snag easily. I really wanted to keep it but knew it would look terrible way too soon.

Very comfortable top for this cool spring. However, the construction of the collar didn't show the usual quality of your garments. The seam at the snap tape is off by 1/4 inch. Due to the cool weather, I didn't return it.

A beautiful soft top, Great color, but if you are looking for warmth, this is not the sweater for you. Good for a light breeze, but for those of us outdoors, no so. Advertised as surprisingly warm, but I did not find it to be warm at all. Will keep because the color is just gorgeous. (Blue)

Went with the Petite since Regular was too long over my hips. Probably should have bought regular since sleeves are now way too short when my arm is bent. Will end up using this in the summer only because wrist gets cold otherwise. Would also prefer a full zip, no hood style to wear under a jacket in the winter.

I got this bc a friend has several of them. It ran big, it was ok, only ok. The wash by hand on the label was the deal breaker. Its on its way back.
