I love this jacket. It is long enough to not ride up.

Love it! It is a light jacket, about as heavy as denim. I might have bought the lined one instead except I didn't want the shearling collar. I"m 5'8" which isn't super tall, yet the waist hits a little high on me. Still love it.

I loved the color and style of this jacket, but the fabric was jus too stiff to be comfortable. It was also not as roomy as other Bean coats the same size so had to return.

I loved your last utility jacket which I purchased in a dark green. I believe it was a heavier weight and had a few details that made it different from this one. It has shirttail sides, and the pockets were set differently.

So comfortable. Fabric is soft, not stiff, snaps are easy to snap. Easy to turn up cuffs (my arms are short). Plenty of room.

I normally wear a medium but it was too big so I ordered a medium petite and it fits perfect. I love the quality of the jacket, good, strong material with a little stretch for bending.

It seemed like a good quality jacket. But I found it to run large and had to return it. Im 55, 125 lbs, and the size Small was much too large for me, especially in the sleeve length.

Great quality, looks great on, fairly roomy. Mine is a M. For reference I am 5'4", 150 and and 34D. I can wear long sleeves and the jacket comfortably. This is a great Fall jacket.

I really wanted to love this jacket, but the material was stiff, and it could have been a bit more stylish for me. It was a return for me.

I love LLBean but this jacket is a tad bit too rustic for what I was looking for. It's more like their barn coats. The sleeves were tight so I am returning it in exchange for a larger size. Hopefully that'll fit. I can't find what I'm looking for and this was as close as I could get to it. So hopefully the bigger size will fit. It'll just have to do.

This fits and wears more like a shirt. I really wanted to like it but didnt want to spend over $100 for a shirt.

Cute styled jacket but just not flattering on my short frame and felt stiff. Not soft and comfortable.

Love this Jacket! Comfortable, practical, and looks great! I receive so many compliments when wearing it. It does run on the smaller side, so I would buy a one size up when ordering.

I have been looking for a utility jacket like for a long time, but I am petite with small shoulders, so sizing is always a challenge for me.
LOVE the drawstring that gives some definition to avoid feeling boxy. The XS fits so well (I am 5"2" 117lbs) with some room to layer, but LL Bean take note, this Petite sized jacket is too long for a petite woman's body, going all the way to the bottom of my bottom. If I could shorten it 2-3" I would, but the zipper goes all the way to the bottom. Unfortunately, the search continues.

Great Jacket! I chose the green due to it can be worn with blue, black and grey jeans. I wish it's waist draw cord was lower as I am long waisted and big busted. I got the 3 X as I live in the NW and we layer out here. I can fit my fleece vest or light sweatshirt under. I like the length. I am 5'4". I would like to see double pockets, with a top entry flap pocket under the slash pockets. I've been a 40 yr fan of the old LL Bean Barncoat style until his came out. The weight seems good for our warming planet. The fabric, stitching closures etc are all nicely done. If waist was longer and it had the additional pockets, I'd give it 5 stars!

The jacket is a good fit, I like the color (inky blue) and I know that I will use it often. My only exception is that it is a heavy garment. All in all it is a good quality and looks very nice.

I love the jacket, the style and especially the color. Unfortunately, it was too long, so I had to reorder the same jacket in a Petite. Now, I have to wait to wear it until November.

I like the jacket. Nice alternative to a denim. I like that it is not wind/rain repellant as I find those sweaty. One important thing to note is that the "faded red" is not close to any shade of red. It's more of a burnt orange. Not a deal breaker for me, but I would have preferred a true faded red color. I normally wear an XL but ordered a 1X because I find LLB sizing to run small. The 1X fits well.

LLBean products rarely disappoint, but this jacket was an exception. The fabric was a heavier weight than I expected, and the design and fit didn't match my expectations. I returned it.
