ProsDurable, Great Value, Comfortable, attention to detail
Having had the opportunity to compare this hooded sweatshirt to an identical looking item offered by one of your competitors. Only Bean item had lined sleeves, internal pockets for valuables, and was heavier in the torso. Actually, it was not much of a comparison since the Bean hooded sweatshirt was by far the better garment for the price.
Most Tall items seem to be created for Big and Tall not "just" Tall but this one, in a Medium Tall works for my 6'8 185lbs boyfriend. I bought one last year hoping it would work. Not only did it work, I bought a second this year are he's worn the original so much! I'd recommend this item for someone who wanted it as an in-between a heavy winter coat and a sweatshirt.
ProsDurable, Great Value, Comfortable, love the lined sleeves
I bought this jacket for my son in law who loved it so much, I bought an extra small for my daughter who absolutely loved it (although I didn't tell her it was actually a mens size). I have just bought these jackets for my two nephews for Christmas and another one for my son in law. They all especially loved the lined sleeve, the sturdy construction and the warmth! As you can see, our family loves these sweatshirt "hoodies". I hope LL Bean never decides to discontinue these, as they are now staples within our family. They are being utilized by a college student and musician, a busy young housewife and mother, a high school Spanish teacher, and the owner of a home improvement company! A very versatile wardrobe item, from the Xtra small to the Tall Medium, the sizing was right on target!
