Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 1912 Sherpa-Lined Hoodie

This hoodie is beyond luxurious! The Sherpa lining is so soft and keeps you toasty warm and comfortable. I'm finding the ideal weather to wear just the hoodie with a long sleeve tee shirt is 45-60 degrees here in Chicago. Can't imagine I won't layer it under my winter coat when it gets really cold!! It's a bit pricey for a hoodie, but I'm so glad I indulged myself!

Good quality with sherpa lining making the jacket nice and warm. The one thing that would improve the jacket is higher cotton content such as 80/20. I like the color selection so I purchased twilight blue and muted purple.

I love my new sweatshirt, but having a little trouble with the zipper. Not sure if it just needs to be broken in.

I like the softness of the sherpa hoodie, but the zipper is a bit off-putting as it zips on the left side. I've never had a jacket like that, but apparently it is part of this product. I will get used to it; I just mention it as something to know when you purchase it.

Nice hoodie with a warm lining. My daughter will love the color and the warmth.

It is okay. The body is fuzzy and warm. The arms are not sherpa lined so my arms get cold when I go outside. I am not a fan of boxy clothes and this is boxy on me. I usually wear a small on top and I got a small.

Highly Recommend. True to size. Launders well. Very warm.

Great color and feel; really cozy. I wish the end of the zipper wasn't as hidden, and easier to connect and zip up. But I am enjoying it. And at least one of my family members has tried to "borrow" it permanently.

This is my go-to jacket when I haul in firewood, take walks on cool days, etc. It is very comfortable and warm. My only objection is that the zipper is backward; it zips left to right instead of right to left. Other than that it is a terrific jacket for cool days (not cold days!).

Soft and snuggly. Good fit. Only wish pockets were deeper and had zippers. Tried to get this last year but it was sold out!

Not as streamlined as I'd like but cozy and warm. Good color.

The color and quality are great! The sherpa is cozy. I'm 5'7", 130lbs I'm a medium tall by the LL Bean chart so ordered a large for length. The was boxy, a medium would fit better. The problem was that as cozy as the hoodie is the sleeves are NOT lined with anything, just single layer of cotton fleece. Seems silly for a cozy hoodie, your arms would be chilly. Sadly, I returned it. Maybe next year it'll have lined sleeves.

I got one of these in the mineral blue color, which is absolutely not even a little bit blue. It's a pretty shade of green, though, so I kept it. The sherpa tends to shed on my sweaters, but maybe that's because it's still pretty new and has only been washed once or twice. I previously had a flannel-lined version of this same sweatshirt that I really loved. It was so soft and warm! I thought the sherpa would be even warmer, but due to the unlined arms, it isn't.

I love the color, fit, and fuzzy warm shearling fill of this hoodie, which I received as a gift. If only the sleeves were lined with the same lovely shearling material!! I find myself not using this hoodie very often because while the body is nice and warm, my arms are cold and the wind whips right through. Why oh why did you decide not to line the sleeves?

Not worth $100. It's your basic sweatshirt, not evening wear.

The hoodie is fine. I paid $10 more than the price tag and that's not right.

I think the designers of the plus size garments need to understand that plus size women are not just larger in the breast, stomach, hips, and thighs but are also larger in the arms. The sleeves on this garment were tight and uncomfortable. I wore this with a thin long-sleeved shirt and could just fit my arms in. As this is an outer garment, the sleeves should be even bigger to accomodate items worn underneath. This would never fit me if I wore a sweater underneath it. Sad.

I like this hoodie but it is not as warm as it should be with the sherpa lining not being through the arms. It is soft and well-made but I wanted warmer faux sherpa and it should be through the arms of the sweatshirt. I purchased a 20-dollar fleece hooded sweatshirt from a drug store years ago with sherpa lining and I still have it and it is warmer than this sweatshirt.

This is a "true" hoodie it has some heft to it but the material is soft and will definitely keep you warm on a Fall day. For short people like me (5"3') it's a tad long.

Had a white one for years and decided to get a new one because I can't keep it clean. Love the red color of my new one but it is soooo much lighter in weight. Quality is down, they should weigh the same and I'm disappointed. At least it won't show the dirt!

The latest 1912 Hoodie Sweatshirt is not as heavy as in previous years. It will still keep you warm, however, you may have to wear another shirt under it.

Runs quite baggy and long in my opinion. Also the "deep turquoise" is really just blue, I was disappointed. And I wish the sleeves were lined, but oh well. I will exchange the charcoal for a smaller size but return the not-turquoise. Not pleased about return shipping charges.

This jacket is beautiful and fits perfectly, but it's going back. Since it was advertised as fleece lined, I assumed the lining would be throughout, but I was wrong. There is no fleece lining in the sleeves, where I need it the most, so the jacket isn't warm enough. If the sleeves were lined, I'd have rated it five stars and kept it. So disappointing!

Over priced and wears out after a year or two. I have three of these and they all wear at the cuffs and next to the zipper. None are made in the U S. I got one at Tractor Supply for less than half the price and it's still going strong. It wasn't made in the U. S either but for the price I paid I could throw it out and not feel bad.

I like the color, softness, and warmth of this sweatshirt, but the zipper is nearly impossible to get started. I have to take the sweatshirt off and put it on by pulling it over my head, which sort of defeats the purpose of having a zipper. To make it worse, it is clear that this bad zipper is only on the women's version of this sweatshirt. I tried on a similar style in an L.L. Bean men's sherpa lined hoodie and the zipper engaged and worked easily with no problems! Then I noticed that the men's version also has a velcroed inner pocket on each side, which can keep your wallet and/or phone secure. I am completely dismayed that L.L. Bean continues to make their women's versions of clothing LESS USEFUL in so many ways--bad zippers, no pockets, smaller pockets, less useful pockets, etc. Let's get with it, Bean, and make better women's clothes! I know you know how because you do it for the men!
