Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Mountain Classic Puffer Jacket

This jacket is flattering and surprisingly warm for its thinness/light weight. I've worn it on windy days in the low 40s/upper 30s and it kept me warm, even with just a long-sleeve cotton shirt underneath. I could see myself getting a lot of use out of this jacket in the fall, winter, and spring. The high collar is great as I don't need a scarf. My only complaint is that the XXS is slightly tight in the shoulders, but the XS was too big overall. I wish the XXS were a little roomier, but I liked the jacket so much that I kept it as it fits perfectly otherwise. I'm 5'4, 120 pounds with a small chest and slim build for reference.

Awesome jacket! Sleeves could be an inch roomier, but everything else is right on

Nice, very lightweight jacket. Perfect for mild NC weather. The sleeves could be a bit longer, otherwise a good fit.

Didn't love the gray color. It was a blue-gray. Fit was a bit boxy. Good value for the price, but I returned it for a coat with a more flattering fit and better color.

Bought the jacket in petite XS, since this is the size I wear from other brands (I'm 4'9). The jacket seems to be of decent quality but the sleeves ran long--LLBean petite sleeves are the same length as regular size from other brands. Not just that, but the jacket ran big in general, felt like a small rather than XS, had to return.

Nice thin weight jacket for in between seasons. Usual size lg fit fine but wanted room for layers Xl was too big. So ended up getting petite xl for more room but still good sleeves length. However I returned it because I wanted something with a hood and so I got something else

This jacket is a perfect weight for winter and spring weather. Lightweight and very comfortable fit.

This is a great midweight jacket. Good coverage, comfortable in the arms/sleeves, not too thick. I just wish the pockets had zippers instead of snaps so they were more secure.

Comfortable and lightweight - nice for cooler spring temps - 50's and 60's. Disappointing there is not an inside zip pocket (for phone or wallet) and the side pockets with snaps are awkward to open and close unless I'm standing up.

Perfect fit. Ordered the reg. in small and pet. in medium. I usually order a reg in medium, but the reviews suggested going down a size. The pet fit just fine with extra room for additional clothing. Happy with the color.

Love the jacket however it is not meant for real cold weather

Wish it had dual zipper to allow opening on bottom

The look and feel of the jacket is great. It is what I expected. But the fabric makes a lot of noise as you move about. I am sure I just need to break it inprivately so I distract my friends and colleagues with the constant crinkling sound in the background

I am usually a medium but got a large for layering. It's very cute - definitely more navy than grey. The fabric is great and protects from the wind. Unfortunately, I went out to eat the first night and a staff member dropped on my jacket and it has an oil stain now. I've tried everything but the fabric is thin and soaked jt and seems to never want to let go.

I'm 5'-9", about 175 lbs (which is heavier for me), so I ordered the Large based on other reviews. Unfortunately, the large was too large! It is too baggy in the sleeves and lower body, even with a t-shirt and sweatshirt on, which is what I would likely wear under it. Unfortunately I have somewhat broad shoulders (tho not massive or anything), and the material does not stretch, so it was tight in the back. It does not taper toward the waist but appears to be a straight cut fit. Therefore, I highly doubt a medium would fit my shoulders, despite likely fitting elsewhere. Oh well, I will return it. I also suspect the sleeves on the medium may be a bit shorter than I'd like, tho I can't say with certainty. Other than that, the jacket seemed of decent quality. Like others said, zip pockets would be preferred over the snap pockets provided. The jacket does also have a chemically smell upon arrival, hopefully that will go away for those who wear it a few times.

Great color. Smooth fabric feel. Perfect women's petite fit for me at 4' 10" and 103 lbs. Have two different colored LL Bean puffy jackets with hoods and small zippered pockets for phones, etc and miss them on this jacket.

I wanted a classier look to my mid weight coat. This jacket is perfect. It's stylish and comfortable. I did not notice that the zipper was plastic until I read that comment in another person's review. Coat still looks sharp. Love how the monogram is black and takes a backseat to the jacket. The jacket stops the wind and layers over my sweaters nicely. I bought the large to ensure I had room. (5'5", 165lbs)

I love the style and fit of the jacket but the color is way darker than the picture. I thought it would be more off white but it's almost a taupe color. I ended up returning it.

Nice jacket to wear to store layers well with sweaters, breathes well when layered - improvements can be zippered pockets and drawstring on bottom for wind barrier-good value for cost

Light weight, but warm. Can layer without feeling bulky.

Fit well but not quite a warm as I was hoping. Definitely need an additional layer under coat in cooler temps.

My favorite jacket . No bulky puffing . You feel great

Nice jacket, light but still warm. Good for driving before your car has warmed up. Four stars because I wish it had inside pockets and zippers for the outside pockets, rather than snaps.

4.5. I got the to replace a well-loved 12 year old jacket that has seen better days and that I have tried to replace before. Nothing else has come close. This jacket has kept me warm in the mid-30s (it hasn't gotten colder than that yet). I have long arms and so it was great that the sleeves came to my wrists. I wish the color block had been in stock as I worry about being visible in these dark days in Seattle. The improvements I would suggest are an inner pocket and zippers rather than snaps for the pockets.

Really nice jacket, well made and flattering fit. Dark gray looks more like dark blue which disappointed me.
