I received my first LLBean fleece jacket a few days ago and I'm thrilled. I ordered my regular size, which fits nicely. It has a lovely feminine shape and is very flattering. I chose the pink, with the intent of wearing it into the spring. The jacket is amazingly soft and comfortable. I paired it with a white boatneck tee, which just sets it off. I will be ordering more! Oh, and after washing and drying it in the dryer, it looks just like new.
I have a fitness fleece from a few years ago in a size large. Love it and finally was ordering another one. However, they run really, really big now. Will be exchanging this one for a size medium.
I live in these jackets when I walk or ride my mountain bike several days a week. This is not meant to be a super warm jacket so choose another if that's what you're looking for. I like the slightly fitted look and it's great for layering under a down vest on cooler days. I also fold it up and throw it in my tote bag when I go to work as an evening-shift nurse. The outside never pills and I wash/dry it without any special care concerns. Love it!!
