This parka is a great lightweight jacket, which I purchased because I couldn't find a child's field coat - something I love but is unavailable for children. It has a soft cotton lining and a water-resistant shell. Another great LLBean product!
This is the second time I bought this jacket. My daughter outgrew the first one. It is perfect for spring and fall, lightweight but also provides warmth. This jacket washes beautifully. After two years the first jacket I bought still looked like new. The length is perfect and I love the hood. This jacket is a classic.
I ordered this jacket for my 8 year old son last week and was so pleased that I wanted to purchase one for myself in the adult version. However, after checking it out online I realized they were different. I decided to purchase the kids XL in aqua and was so happy when I received it today. The cotton lining was exactly what I was looking for and it even matched the jacket perfectly. Thanks to the reviewer (paramedic) who gave a positive review and gave me the idea to buy the kids casco bay jacket, even for an adult like me.
