Bean'S Utility Jacket

Men's utility jacket: Speedy delivery, great fit and always looks good. Would recommend

Great all around coat: Lighter than the similar l l bean Iron Mountain coat I replaced; however, the primaloft insulation performs surprisingly well in the cold. Good all around coat for quick trips with the car, or long periods outside.

Great, "lighter" weight jacket! This is a great jacket for working outside when you don't want to get overheated! It's tough, looks great and is well worth the purchase!

Warmer than it first appears: Nice quality, good looking. Wish it had a draw string on the bottom

Great Jacket! I bought this for my busband and he absolutely loves it. It fits well, wears well and washes well

Very Nice!! Nice jacket!!!! Great fit and I received compliments on it!!

LIke this coat: I have written a previous review of this item before winter set in so this is a bit of an update. First I have a 49 inch chest i.e. between sizes the XXL which is too big and this one which is on the small size. I have 4 LLBean coats- leather coat, fleece jackets, and puffer jacket all XL in size and they fit really well- plenty of chest room and sleeves that are perfect in length. This coat is sized differently in that be warned if you are over 48 inch chest there is very little wiggle room in this jacket and for me the sleeves are an inch too long compared to my other coats. I am comfortable wearing a long sleeve Henley t and this coat but cannot wear much else without it being too tight. That said I have been out in the low 30s, low 10s and at 15F in a strong with with just my Henley underneath. I was doing mild work and was comfortable, cool but comfortable - this was great in the wind and comparable to my puffer jacket in warmth. I like the style, the material the look and overall the coat-- but again it you are over 48 inch chest size this is not like other LL Bean coats/jackets it will be tight so based on my experience 48 is pretty much max in this case if you want under garment flexibility. I wish it were sized more like the other bean XL jackets.. Still overall I like this coat and it will get worn.

Rugged/Warm/Quality: Awesome quality jacket that's rugged and stylish. I thinks it's gonna last for years.

Getting Another One: This jacket is comfortable, looks good, and is wash-and-wear. I am buying another one today. For really cold days, I have a parka or a ski-type jacket. I wear this utility jacket most of the time!

Work jacket: It's become my work jacket. It's clearly very durable and well stitched. The shoulder design is spot on and really makes it comfortable while using your arms. Bean nailed it with this one. My two gripes were the waist and cuffs were just too wide. I had the waist brought in a couple of inches and added an extra snap to the cuff. Now it is perfect. Chest pockets are roomy and functional. They easily fit a pair of gloves. The inner pocket is clever in that it drops down fairly far, so you won't lose anything bending over. Definitely a lifetime jacket. 5'7" 180-lbs athletic build, Medium is great with a light layer underneath
