Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Mountain Classic Jacket Multicolor

I bought a medium to insure plenty of room for layering, so the jacket is roomy on me.. I love the colors and the trim. It's also lightweight and packable. But I'm disappointed in the water resistance- it doesn't seem resistant at all.

Loved the jacket, but did not look good on me. I guess it didn't match my skin tones. The x smaii fit well in the shoulders, but was wide in the waist. Also sleeves way to long. Ultimately decided to return item.

I live in the South, and since the jacket came so late, I will not use until fall or winter. Will use as a windbreaker to walk dog. Think it would be helpful if the jacket were somewhat rain repellent.

I am glad this was on sale because it is nice but it's more of a windbreaker instead of a jacket. It is thin material and it needs a sweater or something underneath. The length hits at the widest part of my hips so not great styling but nice true colors. Looks like the photos.

The colors and style of this jacket are unique and really fun while being not too bright. I was looking for a jacket to wear hiking that would keep me visible on the trail. I found this is be on the larger size for a petite XS. The sleeves are good length and there is ample room for layering underneath. The reason for 4 stars is because there are no zippered or velcro close pockets. There are only 2 open sided slanted front pockets which for an active outdoors jacket is not adequate in my opinion. I will keep the jacket because of the colors but have to add velcro to keep my carried items from falling out while walking.

I am a size 22 and the 2x fits perfectly. It's not as fitted around the waist as you'd think, so it could've have been more flattering if it were. But as a pullover, it's cute. It is also lightweight, so expect it to be more of a windbreaker and less of a warm jacket.

I love this jacket, but it is so light, I think I will make a lining and sew it inside. I do wish it had a pull string to tighten the fit a bit!

This jacket was different from all the other types of light jackets i have seen online. The style and colors were unique and that is what attracted me to it. The fit was good, I have very long arms and the sleeve length was perfect. I have washed it and it held up to washing but was quite wrinkled when coming out of the dryer. The material thicker than i anticipated and does not come out of the dryer wrinkle free. That is why I gave this 4 stars as I do really like this jacket.

I like it..but I thought that it was heavier than it is. I should have returned it ...but I didn't and i can't wear it with a sweater ..that's on me.

Colors are just as pictured. Very unique colorblock pattern that would look great with leggings or jeans. There's a zippered pocket on the right side which is useful for holding your phone, keys, etc. Material is thin and creates some static (as you can see from the dog hairs stuck on the jacket). It's also a bit shorter than expected, I think I would like it more if it was about an inch or 2 longer. The cut is boxy and can drown out your body shape but I like how it has enough room for a sweater or another jacket underneath in colder weather. It's perfect for a layered style. If you want a fitted look I would go a size down.

I really love the look of this jacket. So much that I ordered a couple different sizes, but still have to send it back. The cut is really strange. I own at least 10 of LLB Petite XL jackets which fit perfectly. This is way too tight under the arms. I ordered up a size to Plus 1X & the jacket was way too big, but still fit funny in the underarms. I repurchased the petite in hopes I could live with it, but just can't. So sad as I LOVE the color blocking. I wish it was cut the same as my older wind breaker.

Needed to replace the Medium for a Small as it runs large. Since it's a windbreaker, a sweater or top is all I would wear underneath... so the Small fits much better. It is a medium-weight nylon fabric and washed well.

Nice comfortable jacket. It is water repellent, but definitely NOT a rain coat. Dries quickly. Wish there was a zippered pocket inside or at least somewhere on this jacket.

I think it's a little expensive but it is a nice jacket, looks great, fits perfectly. It is not lined but there is room for layers beneath without being bulky without the layers. I have not worn it in the rain yet. Except for the high price tag, I am very pleased with the jacket. It is a very unique, attractive design and colors.

I really like the combination of colors on this "jacket". I thought it was a jacket, but its a windbreaker, a very nice windbreaker, and should be for the price. I live in Texas, so I'm keeping it because I did not have a windbreaker!

I do like the jacket but had to return for a size small. I rarely wear a small and was surprised by the fit. The sleeves were too long and it was just a bit too roomy. I contemplated keeping it because I hate making returns but even with layers it was just a bit too big. I don't like things really snug but I think it will be much more flattering in a smaller size. The thing that really sold me when I decided to order was the colors. I ordered the Spruce/Tuscan Olive. I was slightly disappointed that the colors weren't as vibrant as the photos depicted. The colors are close and I still like it but it's a little darker than depicted. It's a very light jacket, almost like a windbreaker but the feel of it is nice. It doesn't have that real nylon feel of a traditional windbreaker but I feel it will be really good at repelling rain. I love really descriptive reviews and hope this helps. It's a nice jacket. Try and buy it on sale like I did. With promos I got it for about $45 and am looking forward to the exchanged small size. Not sure it's worth the $69 full listed price, but man that combo of colors is right up my alley. Just wish it was a touch lighter/brighter.

It's great looking, with a fun color scheme. A medium was form fitting, which is OK (a I'm 5'4" 136 lbs). But the material is really thin. If you hold it up to the light, you can see through it. This was an impulse buy at an LL Bean store. I'm on the fence about returning, mostly due to the price ($79) for a jacket that is as thin as a dress shirt.

Nice jacket but should be roomier in hips if it is for a woman. Sizing seemed off which is a shame because it's a nice coat otherwise.

Loosely woven fabric lets the rain in. Makes my clothes damp when I wear it in the rain even for a brief period. It fit fine and packs up to a small dimension.

I purchased this during a Winter sale and was expecting to get a jacket that had some type of lining, even if it was flannel. The jacket would be good for a rainy late Spring or Summer Day. On the plus side it is very attractive has a hood that covers your entire face and can be used as a shell over a fleece jacket for warmth. I also love that it has a zippered pocket inside the right-hand outer pocket, so that I can keep my keys safe. I purchased it because I thought that I could alternate it, for more color, between a black jacket that I wear often during warmer Winter days. It is too light for that. I really didn't need another rain jacket, but I'll keep it, because I like the colors.

I bought this at the flagship in Maine. Loved it until I washed it (it said I could). It was extremely warm loved the fit too. After washing, the filling kept coming out. Got rid of it.

I love the fit, colors of the jacket only thing is the photo on website make it look like a winter coat when in reality it's paper thin which was a big let down.

I love the colors and the fit of this jacket. It has one drawback. It's easy to get into, but getting out of it is a different story. Having a bad shoulder it's a challenge to get it off. It needs a side zipper to give it more room to navigate out of it. I would wear it way more often if it were easier to take off.

nice jacket but difficult to zip up - zipper's teeth are too small for ease of use

This is a lovely jacket, but is is small for it's size.
