Very comfortable. Haven't worn it out yet. It's been too warm. It's lightweight and seems like a perfect thing to wear when there's a chill in they air.

I have found that plus sizes are difficult when purchasing online. Some stores run small and some run quite large. It's hard to know what size to purchase. This pullover was the perfect size and I was pleasantly surprised! I'm generally a size 18/20 and my mid section is the largest part of my body. This pull over fit great around my midsection and did not pull tight at the hips. It is large enough that I could wear a long-sleeve tee under it comfortably and yet it doesn't feel or look bulky. Sometimes buying sizes that fit my midsection means I end up with very large sleeves or the chest is too loose. That was not the case with this shirt. I love it and the quality is great!

I originally bought this coat on a trip to Maine this past October (actually bought it at the flagship store!!) just because I liked it, and it's been one of the best purchases I've made.
This jacket is incredibly warm and does an amazing job of blocking out wind and rain. It's also super lightweight and easily stuffs into a daypack or suitcase.
It was the perfect layer for hiking around Acadia National Park in the fall, and just recently helped keep me warm hiking up Mt Elbert in Colorado.
I even ended up wearing it when I got proposed to, on top of Cadillac Mountain at sunrise!
I will always take this jacket on hiking trips now and am considering purchasing another color.
Highly recommend!

Mud season is here and this is the perfect jacket to combat the chilly mountain temps. It is light but very warm so works perfectly during the seasonal transition!

Wonderful, warm, light weight jacket. Fits perfectly and is very comfortable. It is everything I hoped it would be. The interior zipper pocket fits an iPhone Xs. I would buy it again without hesitation.

This pullover is perfect for 55 - 40 degrees. I wore it in the desert when the mornings are cool. It zips up nice around the neck for extra warmth. The hood fits good. I ordered the small first, it fit nice and looked good, but was a little tight across the back, constricting arm movement. The medium is big on me, but I like that it goes on and off easier and I can wear it over sweaters. The hidden zippered pocket inside the kangaroo pocket works very well for phone or/and keys. I didn't order petite because I like longer sleeves, as I can pull my hands into them for warmth and I wanted it longer for more coverage.

This fits great in every way . Length is good , sleeves end just below wrist but not too long. I think I could have ordered a medium but I like it to fit loosely .
It's been very cold here but I wear it to and from work and it is very warm. Might just order another in a different color .

This pullover got me through the teacher strike in Colorado on very cold mornings. It does run a little small, as an LLBEAN extra small is usually a little big on me, and the size I got was a small. This allowed me to wear a fleece underneath. I agreee with the other reviews that it is a little boxy, but I didn't see that as a negative. I thought the fit looked just right. I also liked the red, just know that it's pretty bright. The hood also came in handy. I would purchase this pullover again and have already recommended it to many friends.

I did not need yet another jacket, but I couldn't resist this one in red. I would wear it every day if I could. It has room to move, but doesn't make me look even bigger than I am. Lightweight and sharp looking. Makes me feel young and ready for anything the day brings.

Love this pullover quilted hoodie. I purchased it in the red color and love it. Has the right amount of light insulation to use as a light jacket and water resistant. The hidden zip pocket in the front is perfect for my phone.

I love this jacket! Fits great unzips enough to not mess your hair while putting it on. Great weight! Warm enough for cold days but perfect for warmer days also.

I love this jacket. I needed something to protect me from the cold northern Indiana wind and cold weather for when I walk/jog with my dogs. I have worn it in the 20 degree weather with a colder wind chill temperature and it is perfect. I love the cinch toggles at the base of the jacket and my iphone 7 fits perfectly in the zippered pocket. I love the pullover style so much, it helps keep the wind at bay. I chose the red because I wanted something that would be highly visable while walking on our country roads. The red is very bright and makes me visable on those cold gray days. I would absolutely reccomend this jacket.

Ordered in a Petite Large in black on sale. Perfect 3 season parka. Plan on taking it on a trip to Sedona and Grand Canyon in March.

I bought the red. It is much brighter than it appears on line. Very comfortable and warm. Easy on and off. Have worn it under heavier outer layer to provide additional warmth due to below zero temps. Very pleased with this product.

I absolutely love this jacket. It is super comfortable and warm. Yet it is roomy enough to layer underneath. These do run a bit large. I normally wear a small and the XS fit perfectly.

I have found that I can put a light layer under this and wear it around the house on those days where it seems it never feels quite warm enough. I don't feel like I have a coat on all day. I also wear it going grocery shopping etc. Warm and light.

I ordered in RED...very nice. Very light and warm. Perfect for when you have to shovel snow - as it is flexible. Great for playing in the snow with kids as it is not bulky.

Although I am not small, I love to get outdoors and hike when I can. It is very hard to find clothes to hike in. I bought this sure it would be too small but this fits great. So many pullovers have that slim fit (tight in the hips) but this was a great length and just loose enough that I can layer nicely under it - depending on the weather. The blue color is nice. I haven't tried it out in weather yet, but it seems to be warm. Love the front pocket too. Great item!

Love this pullover. I live in Colorado and it's very warm considering how cold it is. I can put it on to go to the gym and be warm going in and out. Very comfortable and not too fitted.

How did I miss this in previous shopping online visits? I have a heavy winter jacket and several fleece ones and this is the perfect in-between jacket. So easy to throw on when walking the dog, traveling, running errands or hanging out with friends. Love the kangaroo pocket and hidden secret pocket and I get compliments on it as it is not commonly seen where I live. I first ordered the color block version (which is beautiful) but it seemed to emphasize my middle problem area, so I easily exchanged it for the solid color. I have not had any problems getting it on or off. I don't think I'd be warn enough in this alone in very cold weather but I've worn it in temps 35-55 and light drizzle with a turtleneck, thermal top, or t-shirt as was perfectly comfortable. I feel sporty and youthful when I wear it, in fact I'd say it takes 20 years off, haha.

I am very happy with the purchase of the Katahdin Insulated pullover, my first outer wear purchase from LLBean. The pullover fits a bit larger than I thought it would, but all is good. The color and quality is quite evident, the first time I wore it out I received numerous compliments. It will be my new fave outerwear piece to wear on cooler weekends.

I purchased this pullover as a gift for my wife. I have one, and love it as a go-to insulating layer under a shell. Very warm for it's weight.

I have two wild puppies that I walk every day and wanted a jacket that wasn't to bulky since I use a running belt. This jacket in the medium is very roomy but not bulky. I have worn it down to 20 degrees with a couple of T-shirt's layered underneath and have been plenty very warm. I have the navy which is very pretty I may order the red as well. I recently took this on a trip to Europe worked great in luggage not bulky and packs down well.
