Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Quilted Full Zip Sweatshirt

I have the quilted hoodie and wanted this one too. The hoodie is a perfect fit as a medium, but this one is a little too big as a medium. I still like it and love the navy blue color. It'll be perfect for layering under my vest.

I really liked it. I took it on vacation with means it was great for cools mornings and evenings. However, the pockets were not very deep. Wished the pockets had a zipper closure to keep keys , cell phone etc. secure

Really like this jacket! Comfortable and warm plus stylish. Would give five stars if it had inside pockets also which are good for use when traveling.

I really like this full-zip option, but why doesn't it come in tall sizes? I would say this fits true to size, maybe even slightly large. However my #1 gripe is how short the sleeves are! As a tall woman, I wish this came in tall sizes!

I love this sweatshirt. I would have liked it to be a little heavier sweatshirt material.

I love zip-up sweatshirts and I'm not a fan of hoods, so this is the perfect style. Overall, I love it. The color is great, the sweatshirt feels like good quality, I love the quilting, and the weight is just right - enough to be cozy but not heavy or bulky. The sleeves have a little extra room in them to wear over a t-shirt or other light layer. I like that it's a little more "dressed up" than just a sweatshirt. My only complaint is that I have broad shoulders and this is tighter across my back than I'd like, especially for the price. I'm not sure why brands can't leave any extra room across the back of things. Fortunately it has stretch so it's still great overall.

I was looking for a cotton knit full-zip sweatshirt instead of a synthetic fleece, something that would not shed microfiber particles, and this was the closest thing I can find. It is attractively designed overall and warm, and I like the faux leather zipper tab. The burgundy color is nice. There are two things I really don't like about this garment. I first ordered a medium and it swallowed me up--way too large and too long. So I exchanged it for a small, which is still too long; it would be fine if the bottom were not ribbed, but the bottom cuff hits me around the hips: not an attractive look. The sleeves are also too long, but the ribbed cuffs are wide enough that I can fold them in half, so that works. I should probably have ordered a petite medium, but my experience with petites is that they are too narrow in the shoulders. My main beef with this garment, however, is the way the collar lies when it's only zipped partway up. The collar on the right side lies down nicely, but the one on left will only stand up, due to the panel behind the zipper. If you notice, this is the way the garment is pictured. If I wanted to only wear it outside, that would be fine, but I also wear it indoors, partly zipped, and the one-side-up, one-side-down look is weird.

Looks good, fits well. I would have liked zipper pockets to stop keys, phone falling out. I bought a similar jacket 8 years ago (284606) that I LOVE but it's discontinued, and I was hoping that this jacket would be as good but the cuffs and pockets aren't as good. But it's fine and layers well with the other LL Bean teal things (pima rollneck, flannel shirt, fleece vest) in my wardrobe.

Weight, size, color all just right. Warm for cold New England. But I object to L.L.Bean's practice of applying a visible logo. It's immediately more informal, less appropriate for dressing up a little.

I got the quarter zip version of this sweatshirt two years ago and I love it. I get more compliments on this sweatshirt. It is so soft, washes well and looks great. The full zip is nice, but it seems the fabric isn't such good quality. It is a bit stiff, smells slightly and is a little puckery on the shoulders. Also, I had to return the first one I got as the website defaulted to a petite. My fault that I didn't notice, but nonetheless, didn't expect a petite default. Customer service for my return was excellent as all my LLBean experiences have been.

On the plus side, it's gorgeous. I got the cream - love the color, love that the logo is a subtle one on the hem, and love the way it fits. My hesitation is I am not sure how much I will wear it. it is too warm for a sweatshirt, and while it would make a nice light jacket, it lacks secure pockets - a feature I look for (and always find - with LLBean). It also rubs a bit against my jaw so I worry a little about make-up rubbing off on it. Probably if I had chosen a more practical color...I might be able to wear it more... but, did I mention that it's gorgeous?

This jacket is great cuddly fabric and finished very nicely. The sleeves are extremely long, tall women should be pleased, but I had to take off over 3". By the chart, I was right between L and XL, but the L was too tight. The XL is a little loose, and I don't mind that, but it is a little tight around my bicep in this large size, which seems disproportionate. So I'd say it is true to fit except for the tight upper arm!

I LOVE a cotton sweatshirt, especially one that zips up. But as the zipper tape will commonly shrink, I handwashed this one in cold water, no dryer. It still no longer lies flat around the zipper area. It was beautiful before washing, nice thick fabric, just roomy enough. The deep admiral blue is beautiful! (picture color not accurate - taken in dim light) I urge LL Bean to have zippers preshrunk, or use part polyester in zipper tape. No other way to keep it from looking like a much cheaper jacket once it's washed.

sharp looks, beautiful color. slightly tight across bust, warm and comfortable

I just received this sweatshirt. While I like the styling, it is not as warm as it appears from the photo. I expected the quilted body to be more substantial. I will stick with the Ultrasoft Sweats French Terry Full-Zip Mockneck Jacket for my go-to navy sweatshirt.

This sweatshirt is very soft, well-made, and not snug on me. I'm 105 lbs but with broad shoulders so I sometimes size up. There was no need with this sweatshirt; plenty of room in the shoulders and all over. I like the quilted look. The only thing that concerns me is that the quilted fabric stretches vertically instead of horizontally, so I don't know how long it will last before looking stretched out. To be on the safe side I'm going to store it in a drawer rather than on a hanger.

I ordered the jacket a size up and happy I did - the jacket runs small - I ordered a XL - it fits like a Large! The sleeves are lined - you can where on a warmer winter day! I bought this for the Fall

I purchased an XL because the sleeves in the L were way too tight for my taste. It's big on me otherwise but I just where it around the house. It Feels great, very comfortable, cozy and does block some wind when I go for a walk. If Bean could just put the XL sleeves on a L, I'd be buying another one in a L. Need more Navy sweaters!

Wish this was offered in the charcoal color like the 1/4 zip pullover in the same style. Charcoal is a great versatile color and the heathered pattern is nice. I have the 1/4 zip pullover and would love a full zip for the spring. Sleeves run a little tight in this style but it can still be layered with a short-sleeved shirt. Very soft and an overall "dressier" sweatshirt.

I felt it ran alittle small as compared to some of my other large LL Bean jackets. I like to the quilted pattern and it is a very nice weight. I did contemplate exchanging it for an XL, but it would then be too big.

I ordered a size small and had to return it as the sweatshirt was really long for me. I reordered in a Petite and it fits well. It is really warm and stylish.

I was so happy with this jacket until I started loosing stuff. Unfortunately the pocket's design is faulty. My ProMax phone constantly falling out and keep loosing my glasses, headphones etc Please fix this problem because otherwise its a great jacket.

Love the jacket but zipper gets serious caught. Had to resew the interior of jacket to make it work.

Love the sweatshirt. . I would have given it 5 stars but the zipper pull was broken/ missing .

Soft enough, but nothing special. I bought the navy, and it already looked all worn out and faded.
