Turns out there was a misstep in their posting of new arrivals. Essentially, the wool blazer up now is the same jacket from last season but in new colors. When they posted it as a new arrival, they updated the same template from last year, which had the end-of-season clearance price still marked. Looks like a 24 hour error they've since fixed and which I'm kicking myself for waiting on.

There is some good news though: According to customer service, there is a very limited number of wool blazers from last year's signature line available in "dark brown heather" for $99.00. They do not appear on the web site and they're out of catalogs that contain it; nevertheless the woman in customer service described it to me: It's much lighter than this year's brown blazer, and has subtle dark brown stripes over a lighter brown/gray base.

Can't comment on the sizing, but I saw them in-store last weekend and they look even sweeter in person. Admittedly, I wasn't a huge fan until I saw them up close.

Thinking Canyon color or Cordovan although the reviews say it looks a bit weird.

I don't have a lot of experience with LL Bean signature shirting or blazers (just outerwear), but I'm an L in that. I'm trying to decide between the 44 or the 46.




If you have a chance to go back to the store and try them on, a fit critique would be awesome. I could always email them, but when it comes to shoe sizing hands on experience is best.

I have them in chocolate brown. They're nice, but I wish I had purchased the Canyon color instead after seeing it in store the other weekend. The chocolate color starts to look like the outside of a cigar after a while. Lots of character, but I wanted them to look a bit more formal.

Canyon looked great in store....the Cordovan looked a bit plastic-y.

If anyone has any other in-store questions or inquiries, let me know. I'll see if I can assist the next time I go up.

Also, one more note now that it's on my mind. Saw a new fall/winter sportcoat that is not yet on the website. It was a tweed / wool coat with elbow patches. Beautiful brownish color with some others mixed in. Hopefully, it gets added to the site soon.
