Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Airlight Knit Pullover

Although labeled as "slightly fitted," I found the pullover shape rather boxy. The mulberry color is muted compared to the online photos which I didn't care for. Depending on your fit and color preference the top may work for you.

I absolutely love the color, style and fit! Unfortunately the material snags super easily. First wear and I had to stitch up a snag already. If the material/quality was different/better, maybe this wouldn't be an issue.

For a petite, it's longer in the arms and wider at the waist than I would have expected. I'm 5'3", and would not think I'd have to be rolling up sleeves on a petite! The color and material is nice, and I'll keep it, but was hoping for something I'd feel great in.

I received this pullover in another color as a gift, and liked it so much I ordered another in a different color. Unfortunately, the same pullover in a different color was sized differently, that is, the sleeves were wider and longer and the pullover length was longer. Thinking that there had been an error made in the making of this particular pullover, I returned it and ordered another one. I was disappointed that the replacement I ordered was also sized larger. Needless to say, I was very disappointed that the same pullover in the same size but different colors were sized differently.

This was my third purchase of this item.All are size L but all 3 are different sizes but all are marked L.

Returned, bought as a gift. Recipient did not like he feel of the fabric.

thin material - returned this item , just wasn't what i thought it would be

It's small for a Plus size item. Needs to be longer.

Definitely "air light". Felt to be equivalent be equivalent warmth to a decent long sleeve T. Was looking for something warmer, so it was returned.

I sent this back because it was way too big. I found a different fleece pullover so I didn't try to re-order this shirt. Other than that, I didn't really love the feel of the fabric, though if it had fit I probably would have kept it anyway. For reference, I ordered a medium (my usual size) and the shirt hit below my butt and the sleeves came down almost to my fingertips and it was wide as well. Felt like an extra large rather than a medium.

More fitted than expected but quality and look are great. Very well made and comforting. would like to have more color options

Sizing is difficult, fabric was not as soft as I had wanted. I have trouble with arms being too short on Ll bean products, so I tried the tall M- it was very voluminous in the middle so I ultimately decided to return. Wish LL bean had a fit for me.

For me, the body is about 3" too long, or tighter than I'd like around the butt. Adjustment in either measurement would be satisfactory. I had returned one of these pullovers several years ago and gotten a petite. This solved the body length problem, but then I've had wear it with too-short sleeves. I'm going to remove the elastic binding and re-hem this one. I'm 5'5", 150 lb, purchased a large.

Love the product but had to wait and wait for it. Also, the collar was creased from packaging to such an extent that it will not lay flat. However, I did not complain or send it back. GREAT color.

Fits more loosely than other ll bean pullovers, sleeves are baggy. I purchased a medium, my usual size for ll bean, but would have been happier with a small.

I tried a petite size, but it fit too tightly on top, too large on the bottom. I tried a regular small, but it was too tight on top, just the right length and fit on the bottom. I have a muscular build since I work out and have had shoulder PT, so it's hard to find the right sizing since I'm a petite but shoulders are wider. I ended up w a medium regular which is sl too big for me but I carry my fat in my midriff and this size hid it. The lining of the front pocket sags below the bottom of the garment, so I tried taking a stitch in it but it was a light color so that showed. Teal blue-ish color-looks great w my eyes. I don't like the logo that is bulky and stitched onto the garment. Easy wash and dry. Sleeves are a tad long, but I can shorten them. Any fit issues, if you have a good seamstress, they can fix sleeve length or saggy pocket. I can wear another top underneath it comfortably due to the sizing. Not warm by itself. Nice colors.

I love these tops!!! My husband got me into buying two of them since he loves his too. One is perfect. Second one has a stitching flaw at the cuff. The arm fabric is not sewn into the band of the cuff so it will definitely come apart soon enough. I came back to LL Bean for an exchange but my size is sold out. I'm too fond of the piece and color, I won't go through the hassle of returning. Time to bring out the needle and thread. I'm pretty good at repairs but have a touch of resentment for overall quality we're all faced with these days. Sigh.

I returned this product in exchange for a better sweatshirt. The sweater fleece full zip. I have the pullover of that sweatshirt and its great. This one is way to flimsy and easy to get damaged. I trail run and this airtight can't take branches or anything getting near all the stitching that it has.

Thin, light weight material yet warm enough for a cool hike (50-60 degrees). Just three stars because the first time I wore it I got a snag in it, which was a bummer. Definitely not as durable as the traditional fleece.

Ordered a Med, had to exchange. Tried for Sm, but all out so chose XS. Surprisingly, XS is right size. I never wear XS. SIZE DOWN! Fold lines were really pressed in and did not come out with washing--had to iron. Not very warm, as described--just an average, long-sleeve shirt. But I'm fairly satisfied, after figuring out the right size.

I think if I had the right size I would have maybe given it a 4 star instead of a 3 star. This top is great as an "over shirt" or "jacket/sweater". Don't plan to wear it as a sweater without something underneath. It has a habit of "static electricity" and sticking to my back. It does best with a cotton t-shirt/turtleneck underneath. I also think it tends to run a little big. I should have ordered a small, it's quite roomy. It's also a little "pouchy" in the front with the pouch, however, that's very nice if it's cool!

This is a nice pullover, however I am not a fan of kangaroo pockets. If you put your phone in it the lining hangs down below the hem and I'm always afraid my phone is going to fall out of kangaroo pockets, so this is a no go for me.

this shirt fit good true to size, but the neck was a little bit higher than what I needed it and you really can't fold it down. it is not as soft as what I thought it should be. I was thinking that it would be a fleece and it's not

The fit this year is NOT the same as last year. They needed to lengthen the sleeves and torso which they did, but they also widened the torso and sleeves, and this year it looks plain sloppy. The arms are baggy and so is the midsection and it is not flattering. I am never a small in anything and I returned for a small. Hoping it fits. For reference the aqua color is the new fit compared to the purples from last season, all are medium regulars.

I am never sure which size I am. So I ordered 2 of these in petite, a small and medium. The small is ok but tight in the shoulders. But the medium is about 2 inches longer in One sleeve and in the length, and 3-4 inches wider in the width, 1 inch wider at the shoulder and looks huge on me. It's not often that a small and medium BOTH don't fit. Maybe I got a defective version? The detached pocket lining is bothersome as well. I looked at the men's version, and the pocket is completely attached to the horizontal seam that is at the bottom of the placket and looks better tailored. Why doesn't women's clothing get the same quality construction?
