ProsDurable, hood is to loose, hood does not cover ears
I have ordered LLBeans fleece jacket for my child every year for the last 4 years and loved it because the hood fit snugly around his face! I ordered it for my younger child recently and was disappointed to find out that LLBean has changed the design of the hood. It is no longer snug around the childs face to protect from the cold and wind. The hood is loose and open around the face. I am returning the jacket I purchased. I hope that next year LLBean will change back the design so that it fits snugly around the face, because it was one of my favorite fleece jackets for my children. I liked to layer this jacket with a down vest on colder days. I liked that my children did not have to wear a hat with this jacket. This jacket now requires a hat to be worn with it, so why have a hood if you have to wear a hat with it? I didn't have to worry about them losing their hat when they were able to wear it without a hat.
Both of my kids love their Trail Model fleece jackets! The colors are bright, the material is durable and very soft. The jackets wash well and don't pill.
I bought size 2T for my 17 month old son (he's tall) and this is the perfect jacket. the fit is great. the jacket is warm and ideal for cool fall days.
Warm and cosy, beautiful colors. 3T fits my 2.5 yr old daughter as a roomy jacket (12-18 month size also still fits snugly). Nice quality and color selection.
