Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Chamois Shirt Regular

All my flannels are size large/regular, so that's what I ordered for this shirt. While it fits my shoulders, it is so oversized in the body, and long in the sleeves I must return it. As is it would probably work if I tucked my shirts in, but I almost never do that. Maybe with washing it would shrink some in the sleeves as well, I don't know. I bought my wife a flannel shirt with this one, and hers fits true to size.

I gave this to my husband for Christmas in his usual size Medium. His chest measures 40" which, according to the size chart, is the right size for him. It is HUGE! I mean, he was swimming in it huge. Perhaps this particular shirt was incorrectly tagged? I checked with LLBean for the actual chest measurement .... 48.5"! I'm not sure how other's can say it's a good fit. Sadly, this shirt is already on its way back to LLBean. I wish the actual measurements were included in the descriptions.

The price is exorbitant. And LL Bean quality has gone downhill in the past 10 years. I can buy a shirt of the same quality for less than half the price elsewhere. I will never buy from LL Bean again.

The shirt is great! It is warm and comfortable, but, WARNING, order 1 size larger than you need as it will shrink 1 full size when washed. I bought 3 of these shirts in a medium that fit well but, after washing they were too small. Subsequently I bought 3 shirts in Large, washed them and they fit perfectly as a medium.

I loved this shirt. It was warm and soft and slightly too big so that it made a nice overshirt. I followed instructions on the care tag (cold wash, low heat tumble dry) and when I put it on again, it was about 3 and a half inches shorter in the sleeves and an inch shorter in the body. Needless to say, it's no longer wearable. Such a disappointment as this was one of my favorite shirts. I'd hand washed and hung dry the first few washes just to ensure that it wouldn't shrink. And yet, here we are. Had hoped for better from LL Bean since they're known for their quality.

Be careful, if you expect the same as previous chamois shirt it was 9 oz material. This year they say it is 7 1/2 oz material.

The shirt is cut and sewn well and is made what appears to be quality material. However, I have not worn and washed it long enough to know whether it will stand up like the old Bean shirts did. LL Bean used to make their clothing in America, but this is made overseas and doesn't merit more than 3 stars.

Quality of the item is very good. Wears well. However, purchased for a 6'5" individual weighing 190 lbs, the Large tall size was still short in the sleeves and too big around. Trying the "fitted" style, it is too tight. Going down to a medium tall, it is very short in the sleeves and length.

Had to return it because it was too large. I probably should have paid more careful attention to the very good size charts. The first one I ordered was a slim cut but the medium was a bit too slim. When I went to reorder they were out in the color and size I wanted so I switched to this regular cut in the right color but ordered a large that was a bit too large. The shirt is great and I highly recommend paying careful attention to the size when ordering. Good news is returns and exchanges are easy and fast!!!!

While the shirt appeared to be of high quality, the size was off. I ordered a medium for a man who wears medium in all other shirts but it's too big. Now not sure that the small is going to be a fit either.

It was still as soft as always had been, but disappointed in that it wasn't as thick as the former ones I have purchased.

It hurts me to write this review. My previous chamois shirts are my absolute favorite articles of clothing. I've put on a little in the middle, so I had to upgrade from slim fit to traditional fit. Unfortunately, they've sent me a chamois dress. If I weren't such a Hobbit, I'm sure the length would be fine, as it is, I'm afraid I'm returning it.

Love the heavy Chamois but long sleeves & long at waist.

Well made but way too large; the next smallest size was too short.

It is heavy and warm. My husband likes it. However, the side seam started coming apart after the first wear. I hadn't even washed it yet. I'm sure LL Bean would have made this right but after this year, I just didn't have the energy to deal with a return. So I just sewed it down myself. Just double check the side seams and be sure they are tacked on the bottom.

It's way to thick and heavy . It really stiff. It's more like a coat .

The fabric was lovely, heavy and warm. The size ran very small. I ordered the same size I always do and it lacked about 4 inches from buttoning. If I were going to order again, I would go up 2 sizes.

The size was large for the normal size shirts I have ordered before - extra long in the sleeves

Sent back twice because sizing wasn't right, over looked that the blue color wasn't what I expected. Decided to order for a third time but got the gray one instead, which fit perfect, but the quality of material felt less, kept that one. I know that the pandemic has been difficult for everyone for different reasons and the quality of this shirt highlights LLB's

I order this shirt in a size large, and it is definitely plenty big but I figure it might shrink some so it's probably ok. On a side note, I'm 5' 11" and 195. The chamois material is heavy and thick like a nice chamois shirt should be. This shirt would be an easy five star except that is is unusually long. So long that you can't wear it untucked without looking like you're wearing a shirt-dress. And it doesn't have the typical rounded bottom in the front and rear, it is squared off and cut up the sides - like a shirt dress. So anytime you wear it it must be tucked in, which is disappointing.

Chamois shirts have been my cold weather shirt for 20 years. I literally own 25 of them, with multiples of my favorite colors. They used to be a 5 star product. I bought this new color in the fall of 2021. I noticed as soon as I opened the package that the fabric was a lighter weight. Its not as warm, which disappointed me. Its still a nice shirt but: The product that I love is no longer available. I'd rather the quality remained and the price went up a couple of bucks.

I have at least 8 chamois shirts from LL Bean. They are the best I've ever owned. I'm giving this shirt 3 stars because the color that's shown is very much lighter ( almost a turquoise) than the actual color that I received, which is very dark.

Nice shirt. Ordered a large for my son and it was huge. I have xl shirts smaller than this

I ordered my size and what arrived was huge. I returned it to an EB store where I tried on my size in another color and it fit perfectly, but the store doesn't carry the color I want. So I reordered another one on line in my size. What arrived is still quite large, but I'm tired of trying to replace a favorite shirt so I'm going to do the best I can to try to shrink the one I reordered and hope it fits well enough to become another favorite shirt.

I like to wear my shirts untucked and these are somewhat long.
