Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Fleece Lined Primaloft Coat

This coat is filled with reasons to be warm but I find myself ignoring it on cold days and opting for coats that keep me warmer. When it is warm enough for this I don't know if I'll want to wear something with a furry lining like this. When I put my phone in the pocket you can read it through. I love LL Bean but this seems different than others I've owned

It is not as warm as l thought it would be for the price. Style is nice and light weight, not bulky

I was under the impression that this coat was warmer than it actually is. Not meant for cold New England winters. Not worth the cost.

I bought this as my fall-winter dog-walking coat. It's good enough, but could be better. I am keeping it because: - style: I wanted attached hood, two-way zipper, front zip exterior pockets, length almost to my knees, warmer but not enough to make me overheat - color: I chose the silver & I like it - I am more visible in the dark - zipper: two-way, makes it easier to adjust for also wearing when sitting down in and out of the car But, it could be much better -- it needs to be: - LARGER all over - I wear medium/large and this is wearable, but I could not add layers and still get the zipper up nor get my arms in the sleeves - WARMER: it is not as warm as I expected - I live in northern Virginia, and our winters are fairly mild, but still, I would need a warmer coat if our temps dropped below freezing - BIGGER, STRONGER TWO-WAY ZIPPER: seriously -- give me a bigger one with a bigger grip, and a zipper pull on the bottom part, too - MORE POCKETS: ditto to the review who complained about the lack of pockets -- I call for POCKET EQUITY with the men's coats -- give us interior pockets for phone, keys, etc

It looks nice on, feels comfy, furry fleece inside, not bulky but warm middle weight jacket, but I had to knock down the stars for the bizarre hand pockets that are soooo low that they are uncomfy to use. The waist part of the jacket is a bit awkward as well. I didn't try it on, I used reward dollars to impulsively purchase this so it was well worth it for me. I wouldn't have spend $200+ without trying it on. Fantastic quality. I'm 5'3 133 I got black reg medium so I could layer. Try it on.

Nice light weight jacket if you are looking for a straight line jacket. Being pear shaped, this did not work for me.

I had a petite large coat which I had lost a lot of weight and was too large so I ordered a petite medium . The coat was very pretty and fit well everywhere, except across my stomach. It would not come together across my stomach. I was very disappointed. I hadn't lost enough in that area or else,The coat was just too small in that area. I live about 100 miles south of Chicago. I would recommend the coat just measure carefully!

While this jacket is very warm yet light weight, it is snug around the lower hip area. I even went up a size! I will wear it on really cold days though. I would not buy again.

I've had this coat for 2 years now and have worn it as my primary winter coat. It honestly does not look super good, some of the threads of the quilting came loose and the inside flannel looks kinda dingy. It is lightweight and pretty warm until it hits the 20s (Fahrenheit), in my experience. Definitely still works as intended, but anyone who wants something that stays sharp looking through the years may want to think twice for this price.

I bought this jacket based on reviews stating it was warm, along with the product listing saying the jacket fell under the "Warmer" category. I had tried the jacket on in store prior to ordering, so I knew which size to get to wear a sweater under. The jacket is fine in 40 - 50 degrees, but not warm at any temperature below that. You can feel the wind through the sleeves since they are unlined. I am returning the jacket and will look some something warmer for colder weather.

I bought this to keep me warm when walking my dog. I wish I had read the reviews. The coat definitely fits strangely- puffing up across the chest and back. It is NOT warmer AT ALL. I walked this morning in 30 degrees and could feel the cold through the coat. I expect more from LL Bean especially considering the price point.

The zipper was troublesome and the fit for a short person was not what I hoped for in a coat.

I wanted to like this coat! Reviewers said it was tight-fitting so I bought a Large and it was way too big! So I bought a Medium and it was way too small. Alas, well made, but not the coat for me.

I like the length & the hood, but gave it only 3 starts because there are no inside pockets. Will test warmth when weather gets a bit cooler.

Looks & feels great but too lightweight for colder temperatures. Since I like it so much I'm going to keep it for days when it's not too cold.

There's not kidding about tight fitting! I'm thin now at 1117# and I can only wear a thin long-sleeved tee and thin sweater. A medium should fit looser than this! But at least warm!

Love the weight of the coat, but small In important areas, Where there should be a little more room , especially around waist area and when I want to put on an extra sweater . I was disappointed !

WELL, THE COAT WAS JUST TOO SMALL BELOW THE WAIST. i'M CONSIDERING SENDING IT BACK AS i DO NOT THINK IT SUITS ME. WAS THIS COAT SIZED CONSIDERABLE SMALLER THAT USUAL?

The lining was its real drawback - it felt . . .sleazy? And I realized when I tried it on that I want my winter coat to be a bit roomier to accommodate sweaters.

I order 2x in LLBean. When I received this coat in 2X, I found that while the body fit right, the arms were way to tight. I returned the coat and reordered it in 3X. Due to it being back ordered I did not receive it for many months (which I knew). Sadly the arms are still too tight and now the body is way too big. I think the arms are a design flaw for this item. I'm very disappointed.

This coat is warm, but I prefer the unlined version. I order one size up to leave room for multiple layers if needed, plus I like room to move. I found this coat to run small. It just fits with no layers, even one size up.

This coat runs very small/narrow! I usually wear a Medium in L.L.Bean Outerwear but had to go to a Large in this coat. It is still very snug.

This jacket is great in the wind. Best warmth around 45 to 50 degrees. Not good for snowy days. It does run small compared to other jackets of its type. All in all it is a good jacket for chill days.

I wanted a light colored coat that would not be too bulky. Love the silver moon color, I'd be visible when walking at night. Although I usually wear medium the slightly fitted design was too snug for my pear shape. I would have returned to try large but I am one of those people who has trouble with double zippers; the one on this coat seemed especially clunky. So instead of an exchange I returned it. Will try again in the fall when I can go to the store to try coats and test zippers. PS If I could recommend "maybe" instead of yes/no I would.

I was hoping to a petite size coat for my wife, however there were none be had, so ordered a regular size 10 coat. The coat was nice, it just did fit my wife.
