LL Bean Mountain Sport Fleece Jacket

At first I thought it was designed for Orangutans’, the arms about 5 inches longer than they should have been and the color of an Orangutan’s hair.  I had ordered a size large (normally my size), color “Cayenne/Dark Russet”.  I returned it for a medium but stuck with the color.  LL Bean’s extraordinarily great customer service immediately shipped the replacement, no shipping charges either way.  The medium still has oddly long sleeves, which I’ve gotten used to (in fact this turned out great when riding a bike on a cold day).

Comfortably warm when hanging around camp down into the 30s, and comfortable when hiking way below freezing.  The Jacket is made of Polartec Thermal Pro® polyester fleece in a unique grid texture that traps body heat in and wicks moisture out and feels great. The Thermal Pro® is bonded to a smooth, soft water resistant outer layer that effectively blocks cold wind but still lets enough air in to keep you cool. Panels of Polartec Power Stretch® run up the sides and down the arms giving the jacket breathability where you need it. The jacket fits close to the body and stretches when you stretch. Has mesh zipper pockets big enough for gloves and hat, a chest pocket the easily fits sun glasses.  $89.  Men’s medium 16 oz.
