Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Mountain Classic Down Parka

I LOVE this jacket. It's warm without being heavy, fits perfectly, and looks great.

I love this coat! I do wear a fleece or sweater under it when it's below 25 F here in Maine. I read a complaint that the hood is too big which it is but otherwise I love it and it keeps me warm.

Very happy with jacket Warm and looks and feels like down

I am 5'3", 155 lbs and got a M in regular sizing and it fits overall well. It is a little roomy but I had planned for and wanted that. It hits right above the knee and is very warm and well-made.

Sooo comfy and warm. It's like wearing a sleeping bag.

I love this coat. It's warm and comfortable. I don't feel scrunched up like with some winter coats because there's room in the arms and shoulders. I also like that it has snaps along with the zipper- it can be snapped close quickly if you don't want to fuss with the zipper.

This is a very warm and comfortable coat. I wear a large, however I was swimming in this and it's already a puffy coatso I ordered the medium and it fits perfectly!

I love this coat. I am short so hard to find winter coats that are comfy and don't swallow me. I am usually a medium petite but the small petite is perfect! Thank you for carrying varying sizing. I am so satisfied with this warm, comfy and great fitting coat! I'm now hooked on LL bean.

I am now rating the woman's. I thought I did that first, but that was my husband's men's parka. Please switch the information?? His is a LARGE, He is 5'11" and he weighs 160. MINE is this one... sorry. Put the information for his on this one..

Very nice jacket. It is warm and looks great. I just wish the sleeves were a tad longer.

Great coat perfect weight and fit for New England winters

Very happy with this jacket. The fit is a bit more generous than other name brand coats. The pockets are perfect and the warmth is exactly what I needed for cold Pennsylvania winters.

Super warm coat.Looks great! I wasn't sure I wanted to pay this much for a coat but decided to treat myself. Best decision! Did not disappoint,

A very thoughtfully designed parka. I love it! It's lightweight, very warm, attractive, and functional. The pockets are amazing! Behind each hand warmer pocket is a zippered pocket. Hello pockets! Also has an inside zippered chest pocket. Comfortable inside waist drawcord. A high quality two-way zipper with snap placket gives you options. Back length covers my bottom. Has a good fitting insulated adjustable hood. It's so soft, lightweight, and cuddly. What's not to love?

I love this jacket! Super warm, stylish and a great price! Very happy with it!

I have been looking for just the right parka to replace my 11-year old LL Bean that has seen a lot of wear (but will remain in use as my "chore coat") and the Mountain Classic is spot on! It is impressively warm on the coldest winter hikes. I love that the hood is detachable because I rarely use a hood, preferring my hat. The interior chest pocket is the perfect spot for my phone and minimalist ID wallet. I also found the interior side zipper pockets excellent for securing my car keys and not worrying about them. On top of that side zippered pocket, there is still a place for my hands and hand-warmers if/when my gloves aren't cutting it. I will mention that, unlike some reviewers, I found the side pockets perfectly placed for my hands. Perhaps the difference is due to different statures. I'm 5'7" and I'm shorter in the torso but with long arms and legs. Therefore, I bought a large. I selected the color called burgundy and it is a beautiful bordeaux, somewhat darker than shown on my computer screen and I like the color a lot. I used the interior draw cord to nip the waist in just a bit for a more feminine silhouette. Great coat. Highly satisfied with my purchase.

This coat is perfect for Kentucky/Ohio winters. I was surprised how warm it is for being a relatively thin puffer. I'm 5'2 and ordered a petite.

5'4 @180 lbs apple shaped. Purchased an Xl in regular. Thought I'd get that out there first, which I find important. The fit is comfortable enough to fit a hoodie underneath if I wanted too. Sleeves are great, not too long ugh.. They are adjustable at the wrists, love it. The waist is cinchable which lessens the apple. It has kept me warm though I've only had it a few weeks. I live in NJ. With a hoodie underneath I think it's warm enough even on the coldest NJ days. I can't speak for those very northern states. Let's talk comfort. Well this is the most cozy winter coat I've ever owned. It's also the absolute first of this style that I've tried on that I can actually keep. This means I'm picky.. It doesn't poke me in the face or chin like many of these styles do as they are often stiff. There's nothing stiff about this coat. As far as looks well I'm chunky so I'm not going to look amazing lol however considering my apple shape again it fits very well. Very happy with my first puffy coat. I might just buy another! Purchased in Black.

Very comfortable, roomy, warm coat in the perfect length for winter. Lots of nice pockets for all your things. I have no problem with the zipper. The hood is fine too, and great for an extra layer when it's really cold. Perfect casual coat for long winter walks.

Love ! Comfortable fit, pretty color. I'm 5'1", curvy and 170, I got a large petite and it fits great, just slightly oversized so that I can wear thick clothes under it.

This is a warm winter coat! It is the perfect length and fits well. The hood is remarkable, not too big and just fits right around my head. I love love love this coat! The green color is perfect as well! I usually take a regular extra large but for some reason this coat felt snug around the chest so I sent it back and re-ordered a 1X. The fit is now perfect!

Bought this coat for walking my dog on those bitter cold winter days & nights. It is perfect. This coat has kept me nice and warm in 0 temps.The cinch waist gives this coat a great fit. Very happy with this purchase.

This is the best coat I've purchased! Warm and cozy- perfect for New England winters. The pockets could be placed a couple inches higher, but that's more my short arms than a fault of the coat. :)

This parka is warm and keeps the wind out! I've been wearing it nonstop since it arrived. The fit is great for layering, I can wear a sweater underneath and not feel bunchy. The only (small) downside are the pockets. They feel small and if you don't snap them things may fall out.

This coat is polished enough to wear to work, and hearty enough to wear to feed chickens and goats.
