Warm and Dry
The jacket seems thinner than previous models but my son has worn it in -2 temps and stayed warm and dry.

Sizing is Off
The sizing is totally bizarre on your coats this year. My super tall 8 year old fit the size 6/7 coat and the size 8 that we bought in the other coat was way too short....

Great kids coat
Looks sharp, fits as expected, keeps water and snow out while keeping my son warm. I like the larger hood so that he can comfortably wear a hat underneath. Also a nice length, longer than some others to keep snow out.

Warm, but not too bulky for an active kid.
Jacket is true to size. Warm, but not too heavy. My grandson is delighted and can’t wait to get onto the slopes with it.

Large Hood
The hood is massive and there’s no way to adjust. My child was not able to see because the hood covered his eyes. Otherwise it’s a nice coat.

Great jacket!
Perfect jacket for these Minnesota winters. I purposely ordered up a size so it would fit my 6 year old for a few years. Love the color and the material. Most importantly, it always keeps my kiddo warm.

Quality has went down.
A few years ago my son received this jacket as a gift. It was the best jacket he ever had. It had so many features for skiing and playing in the snow. We needed to size up so we bought one again and the one we just received is almost like a completely different jacket. It’s not lined like the last one, no thumb holes, the hood is different, no option to remove the hood,less pockets ect. The quality has went down significantly. The blue one in the photos is the previous jacket we loved. The green is the new one. Very disappointed.

Very Well-Made, Warm, and Attractive Coat
I purchased this for my daughter last year and am just about to order a new one for this year, and pass the old one onto her younger sister. I was initially disappointed when the 3-in-1 coat I had purchased the previous winter was no longer available, but this coat was great and I am happy to see it available again. It is very well-made and durable, and warm despite being fairly thin. She spends hours outside almost every day in all weather, and this kept her warm and dry. In my experience the zipper doesn’t stick, but it is somewhat stiff and you do have to make sure that the material behind it is pushed back so it doesn’t get caught as you close the zipper. The hood is large, but it is made to fit over a helmet. This is a little problematic when not wearing a helmet, but my daughter typically just wore a hat (when not wearing a helmet) and that was warm enough even in our cold New Hampshire winter. The cuffs are adjustable and the long length adds to the warmth and protection but didn’t get in the way as she played. As an added bonus, the grey and pink color coordinates perfectly with pink snow pants, a pink hat, and grey boots which we already had from a different popular major retailer, and it resulted in a very pulled-together look.

Good, but problems
Warm and waterproof in Minnesota winter BUT as other reviewers mentioned zipper is cheap and sticks- difficult for me to work as an adult and I suspect it will wear out long before the rest of the coat. Also, yes, the hood is comically and problematically large, and my kid has a big head.

Looking for substantial coat for active kids.
Kids really like it. Durable material. Pricey but worth it.

Poor quality and HUGE hood
My son had this jacket for about a month, and through normal wear, the fabric got about a one inch tear on his chest. We took it back to the store, and the associate told us they no longer accept returns on worn items. She suggested some fabric tape.
If the poor quality was not bad enough, the hood is comically large. Like too big for an adult never mind a child.
I have been a loyal L.L. Bean customer for years because of their quality and the fact that they stood behind their products. I am done.

Stuck zipper all the time
My 4th graders constantly gets the insulation stuck in the zipper when zipping up and down the zipper. Then the zipper jams causes my 4th grader to wear the coat home as is. Would NOT recommend!

My purchase.
Warm and comfy. LL Bean should make a size for husky kids. My grandson is eight and weighs eighty pounds, just a big kid. The 10/12 fit him fine, but probably won’t next year.

Scratchy/Squeaky Bumpy-textured Inner Lining
My child only wears LL Bean's winter jackets and I tried the Wildcat Waterproof ski jacket as we need a new jacket. This jacket felt scratchy and squeaky while worn as the inner lining has a bumpy texture. Also, the hood doesn't have velcro or a cord to secure and tighten, which is a poor design the hood is not sized to fit smaller (kids) heads. The prior ski jackets from LL Bean had velcro which fastened the hood under the chin.

Nice quality
It runs large! My son is 8 turning nine. I grabbed a 6/7 and the sleeves are beyond long and hood is huge! But, it was the only jacket left on the rack. I will keep-as it is nice quality and he can grow into it. Love the color combo. Love that it’s not bulky! Long-def covers his butt. Not cold buns!

Wildcat Waterproof Ski Jacket
This is a great jacket for my active grandson who loves to play outside year round. It keeps him warm and dry and it will be passed on to his younger brother when he outgrows it. LLB jackets are well made and long lasting.

Light weight/ Nice looking so far-winter is coming
Only had it a month, so I can’t say it’s been tested fully, but it’s a light and nice looking jacket! Winter is coming, so we’ll see about the warmth and waterproof part soon! If it’s warm snd dry, then it’s the perfect jacket!

Great jacket. Keeps my active grandson warm and dry when he is outside playing in the cold. The quality is A+ so I know that his younger brothers will be able to wear it when he outgrows it.

Nice coat, but the sizing is way too big
We really liked this coat. Nice color and seemed like it would be warm. My daughter is 8 and although she is petite, the size 8 was ridiculously big on her. We returned it and got the 6x/7 and it was still too big. Arms were too long and overall just too big. I know that they say it is sized to fit over base layers... but this just is not proportioned correctly at all.
