Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Mountain Classic Puffer Jacket Color-Block

Stylish jacket! I purchased the kelp green and navy version. 70's vintage vibes. The jacket is a bit thinner than I anticipated. I believe it will work well as a layering piece. I actually find the sweater fleece jackets to be warmer. That said, the jacket is roomy enough to wear one underneath. It also has a quality zipper. My only complaint is the arms. The fit could be better. I got the petite version after reading about this complaint from others. The arms are a tad bit too wide and long. Makes me seem more petite than I really am.

Runs small, maybe I can wear it this fall when I lose more weight.

From other reviews, I knew this jacket was lightweight and not terribly warm but that was fine with me. But the overall fit and the quality just wasn't there. I kept it because I was going away and needed it but I'm not sure it was the best choice for me. I did get compliments on the bright blue color.

Bought it for a Winter Jacket on days it is not cold enough for her Down. Love the looks, fit, etc. We are disappointed in the warmth. It will either go back, or become a Fall, Spring Jacket :-(

I bought this a few weeks ago because I lost weight and needed a new jacket. Going by the description, I thought it would be nice and warm. I'm really disappointed, it isn't nearly as warm as described. I will keep it for the fall and spring.

Purchased but haven't worn and will return (the store isn't super close by). Snap pockets and no interior zip pocket are a recipe for lost items! (At least the men's version is the same way.)

Loved the jacket, but returned due to side pockets. Wish they zipped closed to prevent losing things, did not like the button closure.

I'm short & port. The petite sleeves are too long for me. Otherwise, it's a very cute jacket, but unfortunately about 1.5 inch longer than another company in the same size. I was hoping to completely switch of brands, but I guess I'm sticking with the one mostly works. Also was not allowed to pick the correct size range below. I guess I just think if you have arms that long, you would be better served by regular. Petite should be for the truly height challenged like me. I'm bitter today. I really wanted this to work out. I thought about sizing down, but that's also 20 lbs down and the struggle is real - especially after knee problems.

Good colors but sloppy feeling. There is no taper at the waist so the coat just kind of hangs off of you. Nice lightweight feel and good for mild winter weather. Got the medium so I could layer underneath but wish I'd gotten the small.

It was cute and felt warm but it ran small even after sizing up based on reviews. Had to return it

The style is cool, the XL size fits TTS for 16 w/room for a light sweater, without being too tight in the shoulders, chest or hips. Good fit although somewhat boxy. But the beigish color is pretty blah in person, and more importantly there are many channels for tufts that seem completely unfilled. I don't love it enough to go get it puffed up somewhere, so I am returning. Sad because I am in a mild climate and based on reviews I was ready to accept "not that warm," but no filling whatsoever is not going to be helpful in 50-60 degree weather either.

Runs small. Color were beautiful and the weight was perfect. Had to return it do to running small.

Wore it at 30 degree weather was outside an hour. Took me a day to warm up after think I might need heavier jacket for next winter. Love the color.

Very thin material with hardly any that I didn't expect. I have the warmer jacket in the style with a hood in a different color which I love. Just thought it would have a little thicker lining.I didn't expect it to be the same as the hooded jacket but thought it would have more substance. Unfortunately, I brought it back.

I really wanted to like this jacket. But in the end, even after getting the smallest size possible, the jacket is not flattering on me. It's shapeless and the sleeves are too wide/puffy. This jacket needs to be more fitted to flatter.

I bought this jacket for my son's girlfriend and she loved it. It looked super cute on her and it was a good weight for what we were looking for. Unfortunately, the seams on both shoulders started to come undone after one month of wear. I wanted to return it but by the time I found out about the seams, the color that she liked was out of stock. This jacket would have been perfect if it had held up. Hopefully it was just a fluke on this one jacket and not the case for others.

The coat was pretty and looked exactly like it said but it was so small. I can usually wear a 1x or a 2x with a sweater underneath. I got a 2x and couldn't even zip it.

I saw this in the catalogue and mentioned to my husband that it reminded me of a ski parka that I'd had as a kid that I really loved. He bought it for me as a Christmas surprise. I didn't expect it to be so thin, not really a "puffer" jacket IMO. But - I still like it. It is so retro as others have said. I'm in California so it's a great light jacket for the warmer winter, fall & spring days and the color block is just right. It fits well and is warmer than it looks.

I love the colors of this coat so much, however the fit isn't right. I ordered my usual size, it was fairly roomy throughout but the chest was so tight and I'm small chested to begin with. I returned for another style.

Nice jacket but I found it not up to LL Bean quality Also stock of colors off very thin. Would need to wait three months to get color wanted

Cute colors but the fit was too relaxed for me. Arms were very wide from the shoulder to elbow. Not very form fitting. I expected a more sporty fit.

This fits very boxy. I was hoping it would be more form-fitting.

I really like the colors and the retro look! I am 5'1" and 115 lbs. and the Petite S was way too big. Petite XS is still a little wide on me. What I would love to see: Zippered side pockets (rather than snaps) and inside pockets! The actual side pockets are a little small for my cell phone and wallet, and I don't trust the snaps to keep everything in.

I loved the fit and feel of the jacket. Unfortunately, I just didn't like the look of the color blocking on me, so I returned it. I'll wait for a solid color to go on sale.

Very cute but too lightweight- more like a windbreaker than a puffer
