The heat is (sadly) always pumping in my classroom, so the light weight of this jacket is perfect. It's comfortable, good-looking, and washes well. I must be saving at least $200 a year at the dry cleaners. I'd buy another one in a heartbeat--but, knowing LL Bean products, I won't have to for years to come.
I now have three of these blazers. The first two, I bought about two years ago. I love them both. I recently bought the third in the same size as the first two. It is not the same size. The size tag says it is, but it is not. It is too big. It does not fit like the first two.
It is the best jacket I could find for travel but the "short" is really cut as a regular. I'll have the sleeves shortend by an inch. I'll check before ordering another color next year..
