Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Airlight Knit Pullover

I just received my top. I like the color and fit. The back is a bit blousy, I hope the first wash will help that. I ordered a petite medium which fit well. Please LL Bean listen to your customer reviews. LOTS of reviews mention your logo, it's SO prominent! I really like my new top, just not such a large logo!

This product fit me well and is quite comfortable. Considering the lush looking texture it is very light. The fabric is unusual and took a little getting used to as it has a different feel than anything I've worn before. Handsome look to it.

The fabric, teal color and fit are all great. I immediately removed the logo by carefully taking out the stitches. You can't tell it was there. I did the same thing with my sweater fleece top. Bean, please stop adding your logo in prominent locations. I don't want to advertise a company. If someone admires an item I am happy to tell them where I bought it.

I've looked for exactly this style (light weight, kangaroo pocket, high collar, 1/4 zip or snap)) for ages so I was thrilled when I saw this in the catalog. It fits nicely and wears well. I'm not sure I like the horizontal lines in the fabric, but I can live with them. I'd prefer a lightweight woven fabric; I wish it came in better colors, and that the binding either matched or was darker . I bought the Indigo Heather, so it is fine, but I would NEVER buy one where the binding is lighter than the base color. I would like to see classic colors (navy, red, teal, forest green, burgundy, etc.) . . . these colors seem insipid. Overall, I really like it . . . just giving hints for future versions (I hope).

Finally Bean has made something that is actually tailored to fit women! Almost every women's sweater/fleece/light jacket seems to have a boxy fit that would look great if you were shaped like a toaster; this one actually looks great if you're shaped like a woman! Pretty colors, nice fit, soft and functional pullover - great as a top layer for a cooler day or a midlayer under a shell. Fits like most other Bean tops, a little roomy. I'm 5'9" size 10 and 36DD and the medium is roomy enough to wear over a baselayer. Two complaints, though... the sleeves could easily be 2-3" longer - they hit me about 2" above the wrist bone. You guys have GOT to start making your sleeves longer - they honestly feel like a petite! Also, the kangaroo pocket is not sewn in across the top so if you put anything in it the lining of the pocket droops below the outer material. Five stars for tailoring, comfort and color; one star for sleeve length and three stars for attention to detail on that kangaroo pocket.

Love the look, love the color (I got the blue), and I get compliments when I wear it. What I don't care for is what you don't see: the inside texture of the garment. I had expected something fleecy, but it's more "nylony", and given its synthetic makeup, it tends to trap perspiration.

I really love this pull over but unfortunately the material seems to develop pull easily and I am unable to correct them. I will be returning for a refund.

This pullover has a nice color, but the fabric and the cuffs are flimsy .

The shirt is nice and soft and a lovely color blue. When it was buttoned up the trim under the chin was stiff and scratchy.

I loved the 2-tone colors (plum with lavender trim) but wasn't a fan of the lightweight material or texture. I felt this fabric would show pulls easily and not wear well long term. Fit was good, however, I returned it.

This material feels like its made from plastic bottles. Very lightweight, not for winter

I bought this pullover in November, 2025 and compared it to the same Bean pullover I bought in 2020. The new one is thinner, just not the same quality. I feel disappointed that the quality went down.

LL Bean, please tack down the pocket pouch on this pullover. The men's pullover pocket does not hang loosely like the women's pocket. I returned the women's pullover and purchased a men's so I do t have that extra fabric hanging around where I don't need any "extra"!

I have this in other colors but was disappointed for the first time with LLBean products because the sleeves are extra wide for some reason

I usually wear a small and I swam in this pullover. Am going to try a size down. Like the weight for spring and summer.

It looks good, but not warm at all and I don't like that it's 100% polyester. Overpriced for the quality.

My husband and I purchased the air light pullover at the same time. He loves his and wears frequently. I am hot/cold with my pullover. The unsecured pocket material is very annoying and drapes in an unflattering way. I recently noticed that my husbands pocket material is secured at the chest seam. I'm wondering why the women's version is loose and draping?

My bad I did not read the description so I thought I was getting a fleece and not polyester, but made well and warm.

Didn't care for the material on this jacket. Returned it.

My mom liked the color but the fabric was thinner than I expected .

This was a comfy sweatshirt offered in several bright colors. It is lightweight but soft and warm. I would prefer a zip pull on the collar rather than the plastic snap placket but it's nice enough.

I love the color combo but was a little disappointed. The Airlight shirt really is very thin. I guess I was expecting a thin fleece weight but this is much thinner. Maybe it'd be a good running or skiing shirt but I felt cold in it. Also the chest/armpit area is too big for an XS. (34 inch bust).

I do love the fabric! But it has stretched out after wearing and washing it many times in the last month. I wish I had bought a smaller size. Disappointed.

Loved the color and style. Unfortunately the wrong size was shipped to me. I ordered a Reg Large and a Tall Large was sent to me. Returning it. I notice llbean indicates my standard size is 'Tall'. That is not accurate. Maybe 20 years ago, but not now in 2024.

I wanted to like it but the sizing is way off. I don't mind oversized pullovers but I ordered this in a Medium and it fit like a Mens Large. It did have a balloon looking fit and was too big all over including the arms. The black is a faded black color with contrasting jet black trim.
