Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Chamois Shirt Regular

My husband loved this shirt... until the first wash. The fabric lost its nap (and warmth) and is covered with little knobby pills. I told him I'll buy him a replacement. But now the color is not available. Very disappointing.

I tried twice to order this online but had to send the item back because the sizing is way off. The shirts are VERY large.

I bought this shirt as a gift & he loved the way it fit.

This is the umpteenth chamois shirt I've bought my husband over the years. He loves this shirt: the fit, the feel of the fabric, the quality and durability. I love how good he looks in this shirt, the richness of the colors and how well they machine wash and dry. I particularly appreciate the consistency of product from LL Bean. From the first and every time I've bought this shirt as a gift for my husband, we've received exactly what we expected.

Poor fabric, pilled greatly after one washing. I had an older one from LLB and it was great, but quality has gone downhill

I have been looking to replace a hunter or forest green shirt of this type for the past three years, but L.L. Bean no longer offers this traditional color that he at used to be part of its image. Why is this color no longer available? There are some more trendy colors offered, such as a truly drab green and, this year, an exceptionally ugly and bright red/orange, but no forest green. Why?

This is my 4th LL Bean Chamois shirt. One of the most classic and dependable shirts ever made. This most recent order is such a disappointment! Fabric is much cheaper, pills after one wash, looser weave and just feels thinner. They claim it's the same weight material but the quality is not the same at all. Just a cheap imitation of a classic shirt. Such a shame. The Chamois shirt was ICONIC! This is just sad. I understand making stuff cheap and overseas to compete in this market but don't mess with the iconic staples! Better buy some new Bean Boots before they start making those in Sri Lanka too :(

If you have purchased chamois shirts in the past, please be aware that this material is entirely different. It is a super fuzzy flannel. It was bad enough that L.L. Bean ruined the Canvas shirt by changing to a thin material but now they have ruined the Chamois shirt. It is unethical and deceptive to change the material so drastically and still use the same names in their catalog and website.

I bought the indigo version of this shirt (M) and I liked it so much I bought the solid colors blue and maroon but to my surprise upon wearing them I noticed they were quite large. The label on the shirt said "M" but I swear it was a "XL". LL Bean if you are seriously reading and taking our reviews seriously then I think you need to have your vendors what ever coutry it's made in to have their QC department check these and every item they make for you to ensure it is to standards and they are using the correct pattern or templates for the correct size. I had a couple of backorder flannels that are about to arrive but now I will have to cancel them for fear it may be too large for me and I end up returning them.

Having purchased many of these shirts over the years, it was disappointing to see the quality of the fabric now is not what it had been. Won't be buying any more.

Initially ordered a large and it was very big and extremely long. Exchanged for a medium, fit was much better except for sleeve length was on the short side. Wore it and thought I could live with the sleeves but then I washed it. Bottom is falling off now and piling has started. Quality is not like the old LL Bean.

Poor quality. Poor fit. Pockets undersized. Do not send another catalog.will never order again.

Shirt size was mismarked and required 2 trips to store to get correct size. (xlarge vs correct large). The shirt shrank about what would be expected for cotton shirt after first washing. I hope it does not shrink further. The cashier noted that the mis marking was a problem for these shirts. The shirt fuzzed more than expected and will require ironing after each washing to look decent. I do not recommend this shirt. I am deeply disappointed in Bean quality and glad I did not order this on line.

This shirt just like every other piece of clothing for this company I have bought in the last few years. It is not labled correctly! I am tired of all the guessing sizes and returning items. I am an xtra large this shirt was at least a 3x. For the last serveral years it has been hit and miss if a piece of clothing will be sized correctly. I spend hard earned money for quality clothing but what I receive is something that should be sent to a reject pile. I will no longer purchase another L.L. Bean product. Even if they decide to put quality control back in their items.

Too bulky to be a comfortable shirt. Too light to be a useful jacket. I returned the item.

The color pictured id wrong. I got a forest green shirt. It is still nice and warm.

Bean claims this is their heaviest weight flannel but it's really not very heavy at all. The fit was like one size larger than ordered. Disappointed. Returning.

I was quite disappointed in the dye in this shirt. The past few years it has become faded. The shirt is very well made. It is faded and it cannot be worn when going out. I have never had another llBean shirt fade they have always been superb.

Tissue paper thin. Not like previous heavy soft chamois shirts . Miss represented for heavy weight. More like see through.

Ridiculous is all I can say. This shirt was supposed to be Large, but it was a tent. I kid you not. And they charged shipping on the return.

Ordered 2X regular, must have been for a tall person. Tail of shirt was below my BUTT. Never had a 2X reg, shirt that long.

This shirt was enormous and cut very goofy. The worst fit from LL Bean I ever experienced. The fit is very inconsistent with other LLBean shirts. The worst part is the company charged me $7 shipping fees for returning this garbage.

fit perfect at delivery. Then after it was washed it shrunk so much it was too tight!

The color shown online was nothing like the color of the shirt that arrived.

We've purchased these for years for my husband, they are warm and soft and he loves them. I bought the last one before this maybe four years ago, and it was great as usual. The one we just received is NOT the same product. The style and fit are the same as they've always been, but the fabric is of terrible quality, and pilled horribly the first time we washed it. We returned it. VERY disappointing.
