Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 3 Season Bomber Jacket Regular

Nice looking, fitting jacket, and it seems to be well made.

Love it for it's rain protection, could be warmer!

The jacket is well made and a good weight for spring weather in Wisconsin. I am very happy with the fit.

See previously submited Good off-on with flannel shirts; excellent fit with room; wish not so many "ll Bean" insignias - could be more subtle?

Overall, this is a very nice jacket. Would have given it 5-stars, except for the fit. I was looking to replace a similar jacket I'd bought many years ago. I was hesitant to purchase online; wanted to see it in person and decide. so I rode over an hour to the nearest LL Bean store. I like the styling and features, and it looks good in the Navy color. My only nit is the sizing, the fit is like "slightly fitted" rather than a Regular. I have always worn Regular Large in shirts and jackets, and I've dropped about 20 pounds from where I was 5 or 6 years ago. I ultimately bought the Large jacket because the XL was just too long, too loose, and had no shape on me.

I am 5'6', 180 lbs. ordered XL. Perfect except sleeves too long. Easily fixed by seamstress.

This was a gift for my husband. His chest size is 44" and he has short arms, so we ordered the large (size chart says for 42-44"). It was very snug on him, possibly because this jacket is described as "Slightly Fitted." So, buyer beware when it comes to sizing. We are returning it and instead buying the Men's Warm-Up Jacket, Fleece Lined which is described as "Traditional Fit" (even though the size chart for both jackets gives the same measurements for a size Large, which I don't quite understand). I was also disappointed in the jacket's zipper pulls on the front zipper and the pockets, which have LLBean-branded cloth pulls on them in a light color which draws attention to them. Had we kept the jacket, I would have used my 36-color marker set to re-color them closer to the body color of the jacket (or at least darker). I'm distressed at the many ways LLB is plastering its name all over many of its clothes and other products now and hope it doesn't go any further because we love the products and don't want to have to start buying somewhere else.

Beautiful jacket, but was too small for intended person. Gave to someone else, but it seems to very small for an XL.

Nice looking jacket looks like it needs a sports car to go with it

The classic style is done very well, but the details of the design are quirky. The lone interior pocket is sized for a cell phone -- and nothing else. And the size is quirky. My best-fitting LLBean shirts are all XL. But the XL jacket was too small against my too-large belly. The XXL seems only a tiny bit more generous. So the jacket fits well enough. And I'll figure out the pocket. But the style is very nice.

Good value, good fit, great purchase. Would purchase again

very warm but a Medium was a snug fit, tighter than expected.

This is a great jacket for chilly spring or fall days when a lighter one is not enough and a heavier one is too much. It looks nice and appears to be well-made. My only complaint is with the sizing. Most of my other L.L. Bean jackets are medium, but the medium on this one was too small. Even the large is a bit snug, but it will be okay if I don't gain any weight. However, the sleeves are too long.

Nicely made jacket. I am 6'5", 275lb. Originally ordered an XXL Tall but it was too snug across the chest which surprised me as I am not particularly muscular. Returned for an XXXL Tall which fits perfectly.

Great spring and fall jacket! Fit is a bit snug though. I'm 6" 170 and got the Med, and its a bit snug at the waist although not uncomfortable. Room enough for a Sweater or Sweatshirt if not too bulky.

Really like this new jacket. I especially like the green color I picked. The only thing I wished was that the sleeves would have had elastic at the wrists.

This is a fitted jacket, so it's almost snug in the midsection. I bought Medium because I am afraid a Large would have been too long in the sleeves, but overall feels alright.

The jacket will do well in the fall and winter. However, it is too light for winter use.

An excellent light weight jacket but the sleeves are way to long for me.

This is a very good jacket. My wife thinks it looks good on me. It seems well made. It fits well. My only problem with it is the inside pocket. The zipper for the inside pocket is parallel to the left side zipper at about chest level. The pocket is deep enough but the opening is a little small, so I have to put my billfold in first and then my cellphone. When I have my billfold and cellphone in the pocket, the left side of the jacket sags a little bit. If the pocket was a more conventional inside pocket, this would not happen. Anyway, this is a nice jacket. I shopped a long time before I bought it and I don't regret buying it.

The 3 season jacket is a decent add to my coat collection for those cool days when a heavier jacket isn't needed. The quality is good but it is not what it use to be from say 5 years back. There are a few nits to note. First, the cuffs are a bit loose for general wear. If you have heavier clothing underneath or longer sleeves this may not be an issue, but this reviewer found it not the best fit. Second, and this is aesthetics; why so many bright tags and logos letting the world know the jacket is from LL Bean. It's not needed. Keep it clean and simple otherwise offer the wearer a discount to be a walking billboard.

Purchased the Large Tall and it fits nicely (I'm 6'6" 210lbs). I was afraid the fleece lining would make this jacket heavier but it's a nice light weight.

As advertised, did NOT NEED a logo tag on every zipper. Made it look like it had blotches. I cut them off.

This jacket was lighter than I expected, but it does well as a windbreaker. The fit is a little tight around the chest; watch size closely.

It's a lot thinner than I expected. Quality and details are fine. Inside zip pocket needs more depth and a better location.
