Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Trail Model Rain Jacket

Good fit. I like the Velcro adjustable sleeves and hood. Lightweight and folds into pocket for travel. I have worn in 2 rainstorms. The jacket kept me dry. The green is pretty. Affordable.

I Received this product but it was too small. I exchange it for a larger size which I have not yet received. It is the product that I want it just was not the right size. I want it large enough that I can fit a fleece or sweatshirt underneath it on a cool day. Therefore, I'm not going to rate it until I get the correct size.

It's an excellent jacket to layer with on a trip. We took to Germany and it was great

I love this jacket and it is almost a perfect fit. The jacket is a petite except for the arms. Every petite jacket I own from LL Bean I have to fold up the ends of the sleeves. Great quality and perfect for a walk, run, or hike in the rain.

Was a really nice rain jacket. Had to return because it was tight fitting across the chest. I wouldn't been able to put snother layer underneath.

I live in the desert and have a very old 3-in-1 jacket that needs replacing. I wanted just the shell of a 3-in-1 jacket because I do not need the inner liner in the desert. I asked LLBean Customer service if there was a jacket that was essentially just the outer shell of a 3-in-1 jacket and I was told this model was what I was looking for. It is not even close to the outer shell of a 3-in-1 jacket. It is merely a wind breaker with the rubberized liner, a 3-in-1 jacket has a much sturdier outer shell and has a relaxed fit. This is a very fitted jacket, not loose at all.

I bought an x-large in Petite, because the sleeves were extremely long on the x-large regular, Unfortunately, the sleeves on the Petite were too long, also. I did keep the raincoat because I needed a lightweight one for the summer. However, I find whether regular or petite, the sleeves on 98% of your long sleeve tops of any kind are way too long. It's like whomever sews the tops you buy thinks we are similar to orangutans. I hate either having to push up or roll up the sleeves on ALL the long sleeve tops you sell which I am now doing with the raincoat. A bit frustrating to say the least

I miss the old bright yellow color raincoat they had. This Jasper Yellow is too greenish/yellow for me. Not as pretty.

Lightweight, Velcro closing plus a zipper. Hood adjustment for sizing. I personally don't like Velcro closings, would prefer snaps. Llbean info says it is self-packable but does not tell how to do it. Ordered it and got it just in time for 10 consecutive days of rain!

Construction is good as is sizing. I was a little disappointed in the fabric. It seems flimsy compared to one of my other LL Bean rain jackets. Waterproofing is excellent.

I wanted a lightweight rain jacket that would be good for spring and summer rains in the southeast. I normally wear a small but went a size up so that I could fit a sweater or sweatshirt underneath if wanted. It fits perfectly for what I wanted.

I love the color and it does the job as far as rain protection. It's really thin so it almost seems flimsy but its sturdier than it looks and I appreciate all the pockets. I can comfortably wear a crew neck sweater underneath (you will need a sweater if it's cold as this jacket provides no insulation). That being said I don't think it's worth $99. I mixed some coupons and got it for $30 less but even then I'm not sure it's worth the price, I guess time will tell. I live in a light rain area so I expect this to last me the next decade.

You just never know what you're getting when you order a rain jacket. A lot of them are too crinkly and stiff to be comfortable. This one it the perfect weight and has a nice soft feel. The only thing it could have to make it a bit better is some sort of liner fabric. However, it has nice features and seems to shed the rain well.

This rain jacket is very flattering and I love the green color. I got an extra large to make sure it would fit over a sweater or sweat shirt in colder seasons, and that turned out to be a good call. I am not thrilled with the velcro closures alongside the zipper, but that's a minor issue. The velcro at the wrists is fine. It's nice and light and sheds water. I do agree with a previous reviewer that it does have a distinct odor: it seems to be dissipating. I am happy with my purchase.

I bought a jacket like this about 10 -12 years ago. I feel the quality of that jacket was a bit better. it seems to me to be a bet heavier.Unfortunately I got paint on my old jacket and needed a new one.I still like that it is waterproof and fold up very small I just wish it wasn't quite so thin..

It is comfortable, waterproof. good fit but the sleeves are a little too long

I like this raincoat because it does not make noise when I move (like some raincoats). I often wear XL relaxed fit or 1x at LLB, but went for the 2x because I wanted room to layer a sweatshirt and don't like feeling like a sausage when I zip up. I'm a busty size 18, and I almost got the 1x, but since the description says it is slightly fitted, I went for the 2x. Good choice! I'm happy with the color (sapphire) and that it kept me dry in a rain storm. Kind of pricey though, so I'll be using it for many years to come.

A gift for my daughter in NOLA, she says she loves it. Good fit, good color, comfy and dry.

I wear a size large in LL Bean shirts, etc, and ordered a large rain jacket. I remember coats being made with a little extra room for a warm layer underneath but the jacket just fits. I kept it but wish it was roomier.

This is a very nice jacket. It has a relaxed fit and is well proportionate for a petite silhouette with the exception of the sleeves that run long. I guess that's why they put the Velcro for sleeve adjustment, but it would be better to have the right sleeve size for petites. Pieces of Velcro run through the front of the jacket as well, which catches on everything. Overall, it is a nice jacket, but it could be better if they got ride of the Velcro, use snaps instead and shorten the sleeves ;-)

This jacket keeps me dry. The hood doesn't fall in my face. Pockets are well-designed. It fits rather snugly over a T shirt and lightweight fleece. Any layer more substantial would require a larger size. The plastic zippers give me some concern over their long-term durability. Since I don't expect to need it often, it will probably last a reasonable amount of time. It does what I ask of it, but I don't expect it to step up for anything more.

I love my new rain coat and would recommend this coat to any one

Purchased this one just because my 10yr + model was just that, 10 yrs old . My Previous Bean model is GoreTex and still in great shape. This jacket was a good deal for the price and I think will serve well on moderate rain days. Material is quite thin so I don't think it will be suitable to sub freezing weather but will be easier to fold and pack. Fits true to size. Could wear light sweater or sweatshirt under but definitely not a really heavy one.. Have worn it like I said moderate rain day with no problem.

This jacket could be of heavier consistence. Alittle more material (inner lining) inside. It's not worth the price at all. I would not buy it.

I liked that the sleeves are a little long so I could pull my hands inside to stay dry. Everything great about the fit except the hood is too big. The hood on my old trail model jacket fit better.
