I purchased this jacket last fall. At that point it had not gotten lots of use before our MN winter. It's finally been used again during the past couple of weeks, and the zipper has broken, rendering this jacket useless. I expected more from llbean.
I ordered this jacket for my 12 year-old son who needed it for a trip to China this summer. It fit the bill perfectly, it fits well, is lightweight, warm enough for cold, rainy days when worn over a warm shirt, and has good pockets and an attached hood. He has worn it almost every day since he got it as we have been experiencing very cold, wet weather. It should be just what he needs for his trip.
