What customers say:
The LL Bean Light and Airy Windbreaker has a mixed reception. Many customers praised its lightweight, airy, and comfortable design, as well as its ability to block wind and repel water. However, several reviewers noted the jacket runs small and recommended ordering a size up. Some customers were disappointed with the sizing, reporting it was much too small and tight, even when ordering a larger size. Additionally, a few felt the quality and workmanship were not up to the brand's usual standards.

Good replacement
This was a good replacement for a windbreaker that was wearing out, period. However, I would prefer that the hood be concealed with a zipper. Period.

The material is thin and light weight, but the jacket does a good job of providing an effective outer layer.
I am medium in size and the jacket fit me very well.
