Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Quilted Riding Jacket

For reference, I am 5'4", 120lbs, and 32B. I typically wear size a US 0/ UK 4 and a size S in other outdoor brands such as Patagonia and North Face. After reading some reviews prior ordering this, I expected the jacket have a roomier fit, but I don't think I've ever tried on anything that was this large and claimed to be XS. I ordered both the Misses' and Petite XS and it fit like a Medium. I couldn't get it fit properly unless I wore at least a hoodie and a fleece zip up underneath it - needless to say I was swimming in it. I'm disappointed because the jacket is exactly what I have looking for and the design and style is great. I just hope they have plans to make XXS and XXXS in the future or make sizing more accurate!

I never expected to be making my first return with this jacket. I knew I was going to be disappointed when I saw the package. Light weight and so thin there was no way there was a jacket in there!! I was right. My first impression was that they sent me the wrong color. I ordered black, but this jacket looks dark brown. The fit is way off, and tight across the back and arms, and as a taller shopper, I find it is way to short...but I can't really hold that against LLBEAN. The jacket is NOT warm. It is thin, like a quilted bathrobe. This is a spring jacket, and will not keep you warm in a temperature below 45 degrees. It is completely unflattering, and honestly quite ugly when on. The price is way too high, even on sale.
