The Mountain Sport Fleece Jacket is a versatile garment. It can be used for a wide variety of activities: from walks to get groceries, Nordic skiing, or for lounging around the house. It has princess seams, giving it a nice, trim feminine fit.
I got this jacket because I live in Michigan, but I work inside during the day so I don't always need a fully insulated parka. I love the length and the fit, the sleeves are a good length and it's a women's fit without being tight. It's sporty, but not too think/heavy. I can wear it inside b/c I'm always cold. The only thing is the arms are a bit thin. I probably wouldn't be able to wear this as a jacket over something like a wool sweater, but I got it to wear over cotton shirts anyway.
Bought this as soon as I saw it in catalog in mid summer 2008. Threw it in my bag at last minute for a trip to Colorado. Very glad to have it as we got some unusually cold, rainy weather. Fit is great (size small) - last winter I tried on some size small fleece jackets in LLBean store and they were all too big - this one is nicely fitted, sporty looking and looked nice enough to go out to dinner.
