Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Airlight Knit Pullover

While it was great to have pockets, once you put anything in them, the pocket pouch sinks below the bottom of the jacket. To me it is poorly designed. Overall quality and fit was good, just a poor design.

The zipper does not function properly. It is very difficult to get started and takes multiple attempts. I will be returning the item for an exchange.

This shirt is not for me, Purchased my regular size, felt like a sausage in it. Arms very tight, across the shoulders as well. Not to mention the body. It might have been the luck of the draw but this went back. Sigh

While I like the shirt and the fit, one of the snaps is broken after the first wear. It is warm yet lighter weight.

It looks ok, but doesn't feel right because of the polyester. It feels thin and creepy. It would be vastly improved if you used a natural fabric like cotton or a cotton/wool blend. I won't buy another one. I like the classic snap front closure and contrast tape.

Not as soft as hoped and fit was weird in shoulders. I am typically a large or extra large 14-16 in tops and this fit very weird in the shoulders, sloppy. I expected much softer material and better fit for this price point. Sadly returned.

Pocket hangs below hem when you I put phone inside. Looks awful! I ordered two of these, unfortunately I wore one of them. The other one is being returned.

I bought this exact sized product a few years ago as it was looking worn. The new pullover which was the same size is about 4 inches longer and really baggy. Luckily I could give it to my daughter.

While I like the style, the smell of the material makes me not want to wear this pullover. I have washed it multiple times, but the smell of the material turns me off.

I like the mauve color and I like that the shirt was long enough for my very long torso. However, I did not like the sewn-on LLBean tag on the chest. And, I did not like the 100% polyester material. I wish that it had been 50% cotton/50% polyester. Sadly, I will return this shirt.

I'm constantly borrowing my husband's air light pullover and was excited to see tall sizing in the women's cut. It seems like they added a few inches in the torso and called it good. Sleeves are a good 4 inches too short for anyone over 5'8'' with proportional arms. They are several inches shorter than my husband's regular sized medium. Definitely not a well planned tall cut.

I have had this pullover for a couple of months now and the blue is absolutely gorgeous. Have had many compliments. However, I just cancelled my order for one in Bramble Berry. Disappointing!! I am getting little pulls all over the pullover, in fact I thought I had walked through spider webs! I am extremely careful with my clothing and am just super disappointed that I will not be able to wear this otherwise great pullover for anything other than work clothes. Really sad.

Bought this top last October and have been wearing throughout the Fall/Winter. After a few months of wearing, I noticed fine spider web like fiber starting to poke though my sleeves, then pretty much from all area of the pullover, meant I am losing a part of fabric. Also it is not as warm as I hoped for. The fabric basically falling apart, BTW I have a pretty modern front loading washing machine. Needless to say, disappointed with this pullover.

I own two if these airtight pullovers from 2 years ago and love them. I reached for them almost after they're washed. So I decided to get 2 more. I ended up returning one because it didn't fit right. The one I did keep I wore for the first time yesterday. I noticed the cut has changed. The button neck doesn't go down as far as the previous. The material is a lot thinner than my previous tops. Too bad I couldn't return this one too.

At this price point, I'm extremely disappointed in the quality of this pullover. The shoulder seam was sewed funky and the material in the back is already showing wear. I've worn this 2 times. I hope this was just a fluke as I like the light weight concept.

The quality is excellent, the sizing is terrible. There is no difference between petite small, petite medium and regular small. I've tried them all and they are all the same size. I bought this same garment two year ago and the fit was entirely different. It looks like a different manufacturer must be making the latest version and placing different size labels to the same garment. Very disappointing.

I have admired this top for almost a year when a friend had received a couple for gifts. I loved the feel of the material and she loved it so much too. I saved up enough to get it and my son took me shopping the day before my birthday and there wasn't any in my size. I ordered one and it was on back order, but I didn't mind. When it finally came I was so excited to try it on. I always wear a medium and that's what I ordered but the sleeves are too long and it's rather boxy. I thought if I put something heavier on underneath it it would remedy it but it didn't. I am traveling to Freeport to return it this week and my elderly lady friend ordered a new color and she had the same issue.

I'm disappointed in these tops. I ordered one for myself and two more to give as Christmas gifts to two other ladies who would wear a small. Mine is huge on me - fits nothing like the one on the model in the picture. I'm sending the other two back and will have to re-shop. I thought I was finished. I imagine I'll get to pay a return fee as well.

Sleeves too loose, won't stop slipping over my hands. Fit is good. Wish it didn't say LLBean on it. Not enough color options.

Loved this so much I bought 2 more for myself and 1 for my husband. I wash in the gentle cycle and hang to dry, so I was disappointed the back hem has unraveled and no longer attached. Bummed!

I am so disappointed in the fit that is so large I cannot keep it. The purple (my favorite) color is pretty and the weight of the shirt would be perfect for warmer weather when a light layer is needed in early morning or evening on the trail. I must return. Not sure if I will risk a small or not since the purple is not available in that size.

I wear this top over a light under layer and it's perfect for winter. However, if I put anything in the kangaroo pocket (like my phone, which it's very handy for) it hangs down below the hem and looks really bad. So I wear it around the house and will try a sewing adjustment. Otherwise I haven't had any of the other problems that 1-2 star reviews have had and I've been wearing two of them (got two colors) for over a year.

The pullover was very, very long. It cupped my rear. The handwarmer pocket was at the level of my crotch. The sleeves were inches too long. I am returning it. Too bad because the fabric is lightweight but nice and the colors were terrific.

Fabric was MUCH lighter weight than I expected. Also, fabric had a weird sheen to it - not really shiny, but definitely not what I expected. I wanted it for golf - over a turtleneck in cooler weather. Ordered a small - fit in the shoulders and arms - but it was huge around the middle - not fitted at all. Ordered two colors - had to go back.

I love this pullover so much except for the stitching. It's lightweight, moisture wicking, and good for a huge variety of activities and temperature ranges. The fit is relaxed enough to layer but still flattering. But after only a month or so the bottom hem has come loose, and the stitching inside the kangaroo pocket is undone. It's an awesome fabric but it's really very badly sewn, with single layer running seams and weak thread, so when one stitch pulls, the whole thing comes undone. I will be using the return policy, but I live over an hour from the closest LLBean store so it'll have to wait a couple months. Disappointing from LLBean.
