Just received my jacket. It is a very well made jacket. I could wear a size smaller in this style, but will have plenty of room for a heavy sweater under it. The great selling point for me, was that it came in petite sizes.
On the outside of the coat. It just looks like a coat you could get at a coat barn. My other LLBean coats have little touches and zipper pulls and tags on the outside of the coat. I don't mean to be snobby but if I am buying an LLBean coat-I want people to know it is an LLBean coati! All I can see is a label on the inside. It is warm and I love the nylon lining that allows you to just slip into the coat! The mittens are also very warm for a girl with Raynauds. Just, where is the name!?
This is a good quality jacket and was the length I wanted. However, even the small felt too big and looked shapeless on me. I'm thin but have long arms, so the sleeve length was too short as well.
