Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Airlight Knit Pullover

This shirt runs large compared to other Bean shirts. I generally wear size XL but I had to exchange this one for a Large. It was big enough to feel sloppy on me & the sleeves were way too long. The fabric has a little natural "give" which is nice, but that factor contributed in part to the difference in sizing.

Nice light weight top for indoor use during the winter. The color I got coral is very nice.

Great year-round fabric and colors. Good fit, but sleeves a tad long for my build. Rolling up cuffs one turn makes them ok for me doesn't look bad that way. I bought two and am glad I did.

I love this pullover and have it in both Medium and Large. The Medium is perfect for wearing for errands, post gym, hiking, or for super casual hangs. The Large is perfect and roomy for lounging around the house. LOVE this and wish they made it in more colors!

I have 3 of these in different colors. They fit comfortably, look more polished than a sweatshirt, are a perfect weight for under a coat or a cool day and are easy to wash and dry.

i really liked the style and fit of this shirt

Just received this pullover and I am delighted with the fit and the appearance. It is a little 'dressier' than typical fleece due to the fabric. Since everyone's body needs a slightly different fit, this might be helpful for anyone purchasing the women's plus size ... this garment is more fitted and less full through the arms. The result is plenty of room but not the tent-like fit that comes with many plus size garments.

Perfect and comfortable

I ordered this pullover in Indigo/Dark Blue and it is a beautiful color combo. It seems to run just a tad large, but good for a layering piece. The fabric is soft, comfy and warm without weight. I received glowing compliments from both my son and my husband, so this shirt is a winner; in fact, I liked it so much that I ordered it in the grey combo as well.

I tried to get this in the red currant color last year after ordering the raw indigo heather color, but the red currant sold out immediately! I just got my new one and compared to my version from last year I like this one better. Fabric feels a little less "ripple-y"/bumpy and maybe a tad thinner (in a good way). It's slightly more fitted and looks better than last year while still being comfortable with room underneath to layer - sleeves aren't quite as loose as last year and look nicer on me. Get the red currant color - it's even more beautiful/fun in person. I love that the buttons are a slight different color than the placket - a fun accent/pop! An earlier review mentioned the color of the fabric on the neck didn't match, that wasn't my experience.

Love this color. Waited quite some time for it to be back in stock

I bought this in teal last year and absolutely loved it. It is so lightweight, but warm. I wore it at the lake all summer and kayaking in early morning. When I tried to purchase another one, they were sold out, so I'm very pleased to see these available again. I'm buying one in the light grey now so I can wear it with more things. Thank you LLBean for bringing this back!

Have several of these from previous purchases but this one runs big. I kept it but suggest sizing down unless you like your tops roomy.

The material is lightweight and comfortable. I wish it was a bit more fitted without the bottom band.

Lovely, light fabric, but it is for warmer weather than I anticipated. Perhaps I didn't interpret description appropriately.

I loved the product. However, it had to be returned for a ps. It was way too big for me

This is a thin fleece pullover. It has no pockets (a negative for me). It's best if worn with a heavier shirt underneath, or as a thin layer over a short sleeve shirt when warm weather temperatures take a dip into the mid-60's. Don't expect tons of warmth, or any wind blockage.

Originally ordered this in size Small, which is very baggy overall. Do not plan to wear a base layer under it, so I reordered it in XS, which fits better in the chest and waist, but the bottom hem is weirdly tight. Really like the teal blue color, the thinness of the fabric, and the kangaroo pocket. Will be nice to wear on cool (but not cold) days. Will keep the XS - and return the Small.

I purchased the purple and lake blue in an LL Bean store. Petite large. Love the colors and the relaxed fit. Warm and cozy as autumn settles in. I'd give it 5 stars, but for the droopiness on the arms near the elbows. Still and all - love it!

I love this top. It's soft, perfect weight for a chilly fall morning or evening dog walk. It's magic. My husband gave me a large. It's long in the torso, making the front pocket a little saggy. I loved it and wore it right away so couldn't return for a different size, but I went shopping for a second one. In talking with a customer who was wearing one that fit nicely, I found that petite medium was a much better fit for me, hits nicely on the hip and even in the sleeve length was fine. I'm 5'7" and weigh 157. I normally wear a large.

I've owned several of these pullovers over the years and love them. I ordered the black and the eggplant heather this year (in my usual Petite Medium) and found they have completely changed the cutit is not much longer and bigger overall. I went down a size, and it's better, but the long length makes it significantly less flattering than previous years.

Have bought these tops for years and love them. Wash up well and air dry them overnight. Have several colors. One less star because my recent purchase of new color, purple, was much larger than my others---same size. Fits baggy. Pretty color so will keep, but sad there was difference in size.

I love these airlight knit pullovers. I now have two of them & they are so versatile as they are light weight, attractive & yet add a layer of warmth when you need it.

I love this pullover for in between weather. It is my second Airtight top. It really does keep you warmer in cooler weather and cooler in warmer weather. Good for summer outdoor events and for camping. I live very close to a Great Lake where the temperature can change with the wind. I have had many complements on the color and style. I am 5"4" and weigh 125. Small fits fine.

I own several of these and was excited to see the new brighter colors. So I ordered two in petite, as usual. They are almost 3 inches longer than my old ones!!!! When is Beans going to figure out that their petite tops are too long? I'm 5'4" so considered average height.
