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

It's cut too small in the shoulder/arm area and I am small, 5' 2" 115 pounds. Also over-priced for this jacket. There are only 2 pockets considering it's being called a mountain jacket and the right sided one has a security zippered pocket inside. Why not both right and left pockets having a zipper and at least one more pocket with a zipper. It's really a lightweight windbreaker at best, not a mountain jacket.

I wanted to love this jacket and I loved it until the size didn't feel right. I ordered petite xs and it felt like regular small. Had to return it. I wish the sizing was true to size. Unfortunately it wasn't.

I wanted to love it but the bottom half of the jacket was too small and didn't have a double zipper to customize the fit. I think a jacket should be sized for comfort and layering. This jacket couldn't be layered and was even snug with a t-shirt. It's a fun idea with interesting colors but I had to return it. I have many other jackets from LLB so I was surprised that this didn't fit. Maybe it was a quality control issue.

Fits big. Very thin fabric. It is overpriced.

Not comfortable and very clingy - no room to move.

I love the look and colors of this jacket. The first time I wore it it was a very windy 50 sunny day over a heavy cotton long sleeve Henley T-shirt. As soon as I stepped out I felt the chill. It is not windproof. I'm now wondering when I will wear it since it is not windproof. Wish I had not purchased it.

No lining in the jacket. Not suit for cold weather or rain!

Thin fabric. No lining. More like a shirt than a jacket. Over priced. Likely freeze in the mountains with this unless a heat wave in July. Looks cute though.

I love, love, love this jacket, except for one really annoying thing: white stuffing (polyester fibers) migrates out through the outer layer under the arms and forms strands and pills there on the surface. I've never experienced this in a coat. I do a lot of walking (walk almost two miles per day) so this might not occur for someone who just puts the jacket on to go to the grocery store. This is also not the only jacket I wear, so it has not had heavy use. The problem showed up very soon after I started using it, and I've had to trim these fibers off with scissors or it would pull large amounts of fluff out of the inside if I just tug on it. The only reason I didn't send it back is because it is so darned unique and I loved the design. It fits well, is a nice light layer with a little warmth. I truly hope LLBean will address this problem and continue to manufacture this design with improved quality of fabric. From my quilting hobby, I recognize this problem as something we call bearding, and it happens when the outer fabric is not tightly woven; also the quality of the inside fibers sometimes contributes to the problem too. I have never had this problem with any other coat. LL Bean, please fix this problem and update the description next year if you do to note that the construction is improved. I'd buy another if I think the problem was solved.

I didn't like the color combination, as it seemed different than what was shown online. The jacket was very light, and not lined. I was disappointed, so returned it and found another jacket more to my liking at one of your Outlet Stores.

I really wanted to love this jacket. It is nice looking, sturdy, and does protect from the rain, so if that is what you are looking for, this might be right for you. The problem I have with it is the pockets. They are big which is nice but don't close/zip which technically is fine, except what that means is water gets in them and then pools! And not just a little, you get a small pond in your pocket. I unfortunately learned of this problem while my ipod was in there, causing damage to it. The reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because if you don't plan on using hte pockets, this jacket is fine, but for me it is a big problem, and makes this item not worth the price.

Item was much lighter in weight than I expected. I have winter jackets in a size small that fit perfectly; this jacket was very snug in a small, not what I expected.

The description for xl and l was it was slightly fitted. I tried on a vest I purchased from llbean that was a snug xl, so I went a size up. It was huge on me. I returned it for size exchange with the necessary form and address label, and never heard another word or received a replacement or credit. Extremely disappointed, both in the misleading description and now missing jacket.

good for a wind breaker but not much else , I was expecting a more substantial jacket.

My fault for ordering an X-Large. Way too big. I would have returned for a smaller size, but the quality was not good for the price.

The tag on this jacket says is was $69, yet I was charged $79. Wanted to love LL Bean, but can't knowing I've been ripped off.

Nice! But Not what i expected. I wanted something warmer. I returended it and never received my refund.

I like the colors and have had compliments on this jacket. That being said, I have had the jacket unzip from the bottom a couple of times. If it continues to do this, I will be returning it.

I love the colors and design of this jacket, but it's not worth the high price. It's not insulated and not water resistant. But the major problem is that it lacks a two-way zipper and is narrow at the bottom, so it's very uncomfortable to sit down in it. I had to completely unzip it every time I got in the car. I have the pullover version and it's fine, but this one is a big disappointment.

The jacket doesn't have a lining. It's just another shirt.

I am disappointed. This jacket is lovely, but can barely protect me from a sprinkle. I also don't like the elastic cuffs. Cheap jackets have cuffs like this.

Flimsy jacket, such thin material .... very expensive. So disappointed.

So I ordered this jacket in 2020 and circumstances and weather being what they are, only recently pulled it out to wear. On the first wearing the zipper broke. If it hadn't been so long ago, I would have returned. Very poor quality.

Ordered my normal size, and it was way too big. I liked the design online, but in person the colors are much duller and design seems much simpler. I ended up returning the jacket and purchased a different LL Bean jacket. Love this store for outerwear, this just wasn't the product for me.

Did not fit. Too big. Very thin. I wanted a nice jacket to wear in cooler weather but this is just like wearing aluminum foil.
