Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Shirt Traditional Fit

Had it a week and the button fell off in the washer. just amazing!

I bought four tossed them in the wash machine. When I took them out I got covered with lint. After cleaning up the mess I put them in the dryer which clogged the lint trap within minutes. So I shook them out and washed them again. More lint and a lot of pilling. The shirts were made in El Salvador and the stitching and detailing were great but, the fabric is awful.

I don't know much about fabrics, but have purchased more than a dozen LLBean flannel shirts over the years and this one is different. After only one washing, the cloth has a knappy look and feel. I've only encountered this once before and that was in a cheap pair of flannel sheets that did not last long. I would guess that the problem is either in the quality of the thread, or the way it is woven.
