Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Waterfowl Sweater

I wear it hunting and out to events. Great to wear under hunting coat in cold weather.

Great wool sweater, perfect for Fall hikes on east coast

This sweater has rapidly become my favorite for windy or blustery spring or Autumn weather. It is stylish, comfortable, and practical.

This is an amazing sweater fits well and did well in light rain and 40 degree temps.

I love this Merino wool sweater. I bought it in both the brown and green versions. Very warm, stylish and well fitting. I found it in the hunting section of the Freeport store.

Great sweater. Looks good. Can be casual or a little dressy, depending on the rest of your outfit. It is warm and wears just as expected. It is slightly fitted, just as described on the website. I'd say the torso below the chest down to the waist is a little baggy, at least on the one I received. The wool is relatively soft and not too itchy (for wool). If you are sensitive, you'll want a layer between the sweater and your skin. It looks good under a jacket or on its own. It is warm in both cold and cold and damp weather. It breathes well if you're doing chores outside.

High quality, heavy, durable, comfortable. Nice purchase.

Quite warm when layered with a windproof shell, but amazingly breathable when worn alone. One of those garments that seems to be perfect over a wide range of temperatures. The fleece lined collar is very comfortable on the neck. I use mine quite a bit when upland bird hunting in cold weather, but it is also the first one I reach for if I know I'll be sitting in cold weather. In spite of heavy use, it has shown little pilling. Highly recommended!

My new favorite sweater. Wear this every chance I get. Not itchy. Not too hot, just perfect

I knew this sweater was going to be great after seeing two guys from the Alone show wear it. Cade and Alan from season 10. I've put mine through the wringer the last year and a half on tons of extended hiking, fishing, and camping trips. Surprisingly, it has not pilled very much which usually lower priced wool sweaters tend to suffer from. Most of the damage I have on mine is from snags bushwhacking. If you wash it properly, like instructed on the tag, it won't shrink. Cold hand wash in a basin with a little bit of proper detergent like Eucalan and you're good to go. I have other high quality sweaters from Inis Meain, GRP, and Blue Mogganer and this one holds its weight. I'll pick up another one when they restock in sizing.

Well made warm wool sweater with high quality for winter months.

Great sweater, warm and stylish. Fits true to size.

I bought this for my son for his birthday. He works in the elements all winter and he wears this for good and work. That's the great thing about wool, it's so versatile!

This is a well constructed, classic style that is both casual and a bit dressy.

Handsome Christmas present. Looks terrific, cozy and warm.

I purchased XL which I thought was extra long. It was too short in the arms for my 6'8 son on law. Wish they made a tall version. Beautiful sweater.

Great Quality, Great Fit. Very happy with purchase.

My boyfriend loves this it was a Christmas gift from me

Beautiful construction and classic look. Not itchy

Bought this sweater in light blue for my husband. He loved it and it looks really good on him,

I've tried buying wool sweatersBean has the best variety, especially in wool. I'm wearing this with just a short sleeve t-shirt. No itch and it actually blocks some wind. I have a vest like it in large. Reading the reviews, runs a little large, I ordered a mediumfits perfectly! This one just shot to my favorite. It's great for layering under a wind proof garnet but the wool just keeps me at a nice cozy temp while watching the tube. The suede on inside of collar feels greatagain, this one doesn't itch!

Very happy with how comfortable this sweater worked on a recent trip both wearing it over a shirt and also layered under a jacket

A Lovely sweater that is nice and warm. Beautiful neutral color too!

Love this sweater! It fits great, looks fantastic, and it is warm without being too much. The wide band around the inner collar was a welcome surprise to me. I have a couple of other sweaters that go further up on my neck like this and they rub. This one is super soft and feels nice.

Using the size chart, it recommended a large tall size. I'm 6'2" and weigh about 215. The tall large was way too big. I returned it for a large and it fit nicely. Still had a little room but when wearing a button down shirt underneath, the fit was fine. Very warm sweater which is another positive when living in Western New York.
