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

I like my parka because it is warm, just the right weight, and good looking! It is roomy enough when wearing layers underneath. The front flap with snaps is convenient when zipping up isn't necessary.

I Love, love! That's all I have to say! This is the warmest jacket, looks great too. Purchase a size smaller than you normally would. I actually had to go 2 sizes down.

I originally purchased the regular XL because I REALLY wanted the dark blue color. I do not know my exact measurements so an XL was my best guess and the "true fit" size that LL Bean offered me. I wear a 42 G bra so my chest is on the larger sized. The XL was way too snug in the chest making my armpits tight whenever I needed to reach for something. I was really hoping that the next size up- 1X in plus, would fit and it totally does! My chest has plenty of room and I can move my arms without feeling I am going to rip the armpits out. It is nice and long so I imagine it is going to keep me super warm once things really start to get cold in my area. I ended up with the burgundy color since the blue was out in my size and I have no complaints! Over all a super good quality coat it feels super thick and nice. Having it on in my home for just a few minutes with few layers on and I already feel overheated lol

Amazingly comfortable. Usually coats like this are tight across the shoulders for me and restrict my ability to reach forward. Not this one! Like a warm puffy blanket I can wear. And I have all the freedom of movement I need

Great fit, super warm & stylish! There are internal zip pockets at the hip so you can safely keep keys/wallet/phone while also having dedicated warm pockets for your hands.

Love the warmth compared to my LL Bean light weight 850 fill coat which was beginning to lose feathers after about 5+ years. It keeps me absolutely warm and blocks the wind. Hood is big enough to go over my snow hat if needed on windy days. I may still wear my lighter longer jacket when I'm dressed up as long as I'm not spending too much time outside. In Boston suburbs. I'm 5'7 and about 170 lbs - the large is perfect because I tend to wear bulky wool sweaters over other layers, but if I didn't need those layers I would have gone with a medium.

Great Coat! I get lots of compliments on it - I bought a MP but easily could have purchased SP. Green color is wonderful.

Love this jacket! It's super flattering and has cute details with the buttons, zipper pulls, and LL bean logo. It's kept me warm on all the cold December Utah evenings I've taken it out in. Very impressed with the quality, style, and warmth factor! Will definitely be purchasing more LL bean clothing in the future!

Love this coat. I wanted something warm, a bit longer than a regular coat and stylish. When I first got it though, it smelled terrible - like a wet dog and body odor. I washed it according to the tag directions twice and thoroughly dried it in the dryer both times. Then I hung it up with charcoal bags in the pockets to absorb any lingering smells. Now it smells totally fine! I'm glad I got rid of the smell, because I wouldn't have been able to keep it if that didn't go away.

So far, I'm very pleased with this parka. It fits great and keeps me warm. I like the drawstring in the waist for a fitted look. My favorite feature is the zipper pockets within the hand pockets. I keep my phone and keys zipped up in those and don't have to worry about them falling out when I take my hands or mittens out!

I love my new coat !!! at last I am warm in the cold wind up here in Maine. I have a little westie that I walk most days of the week who is a bundle of energy so it is imperative that I walk her and at last I can in comfort.

Favorite winter coat so far. Super warm, loose enough to wear sweaters and sweatshirts.

This coat is very warm without being super bulky. A little snug in the arms.

So warm. I have a longer, thicker, and more bulky jacket but sometimes its just too much to carry when going from outside to inside between classes. This was perfect and keeps me warm on my commute.

Got this for a trip to Leavenworth and it's perfect! I'm 5'3" and I love the length, i got a medium the size fits great. Super comfy and cute.

It's the perfect; super comfortable, light weight, warm and the fit is true to size.

Warm! Perfect length. Great quality. Washes well. Just get it.

Purchased this for my wife for Christmas and gave it to her early. She practically lives in this coat she loves it that much (she even wears it in the house). I got jealous and purchased one for me, if I love mine half as much as she loves hers I will be satisfied.

Excellent quality, flattering, functional and warm! I have wanted this coat for two years and it sold out both times... I am so excited to get this for Christmas!!!

This is the warmest coat I have ever owned. I have worn it on a truly blustery cold day and it kept me extremely warm with such a light weight feel. I ordered the kelp green color which is a great neutral, matching nicely. Great lifetime coat! \

Pockets! Pockets! Pockets! And, VERY well made. Ordered a medium (140 lbs, 5'4"), and it fits like a large; that was okay with me as I plan to layer a thinner coat with it at football games. Had I ordered a small, I believe it would have still allowed for bulky sweaters. Lovely shade of green, and the brass snaps compliment it wonderfully.

Have only worn this a few times but each time it has kept me nice and warm.

Love it - fits great on my body (5'4", 120 lbs and ordered small). Very warm and cozy, just what I wanted

It's so warm and comfortable! I love the adjustable waste.
