Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Pajamas Regular

This is my second pair of pajamas that I ordered recently. Loved the material and comfort of the first pair but the waistband was way too tight and was leaving marks on my waist. The overall fit for my size is perfect but the elastic is way tight. I thought it might be a mistake in manufacturing so I returned the first pair and re-ordered. A bit better but still too tight. Perhaps are made for extra slim people. The second pair of pajamas also appears to be balling up a lot more than the other pair. It's too bad because I love the feel of these pajamas otherwise. They are going back again.

Every 3-5 years, I replace my lovingly worn LL Bean flannel Scotch plaid pajamas. Typically the flannel material is thick and cozy. Because of this quality, it takes a few years for the flannel material to eventually loose it's fluff and warmth. Last year, I decided to buy an extra pair to rotate use in order get extend the life of these pajamas. I ordered an additional set in red/black Buffalo plaid this year. They were back ordered and I just received them. Holy cow, not worth the price. I could find better flannel pajamas at a discount department store for twice less. This new LL Bean flannel pajamas are very thin, almost more like a soft cotton, not the usual thick flannel. Save your money, not worth it.

I have been buying these PJ's for my entire family (3 prs of men's and 3 prs of women's) for several years now. This year, the men's PJ's were lacking in quality. No top stitching on the lapels and after one wash they are very misshapen. Size also ran smaller than expected. I will have to find another company to buy from in the future.

Needed to wash them three times to eliminate the fuzz. The fabric thinned way down. a pair we bought about 2 months ago only required one washing and did not thin down. Not a good product.

My family grew up always buying LL Bean men's pajamas. They were soft and indestructible. I was really shocked at the low quality of the fabric of this recent purchase.

The top was fine, the bottom had elastic that was far too tight (borderline trying to cut me in half). From calling customer service, I learned that the elastic in the mens pants is 53% rubber/47% poly. The elastic in the womens pants is 38% rubber/62% poly. In terms of elastic tightness, my wife's womens set felt like something a human would voluntarily wear. I returned this to get a womens set. I wish they would have the supplier switch to 38% rubber elastic for the mens pants, in addition to using it for womens pants.

Sleeves and pant legs are WAY too long. Washed and dried both on HOT, still not ok. Material is wonderful, so I will hem sleeves and pants, but would not buy again.

First wash of both pairs left "lint" all over the other items in the same load. It took me a long time to pick the lint out of my machine and off of all the other items. For the price of these pajamas, I would not expect that to happen! Very frustrating.

The flannel material does not hold up well in washing. The dryer lint screen is always full of the flannel after drying. Does not look good after a couple of washes. Your flannel shirts do not exhibit the same issue. Will not buy again.

comfortable but keeps losing bits of fabric after 3 washes

Fit was good, however, once washed it must be ironed or nothing "fits" like it did prior to initial washing. And, when tossing and turning in bed the arms and legs of the PJs pushed/moved up. Made it very uncomfortable!

Nice pajamas, though quite expensive. Did not last more than a couple of seasons - the knee ripped out while putting my foot in and the seams fell apart in various areas. I do not believe LL Bean quality to be of the same high standards as in the past. I ended up throwing them out.

These did not fit! Too long. Unhappy with purchase.

Warm comfortable pajamas! But the first week of wearing them there's a big hole in the crouch area. Not worth the money if they rip so easily.

I was hoping these would have been at the same level of their competitor's product that I wore for years, but its just okay of a product. My previous work was a fit model so my expectations on fit may be expecting a bit more than other customers. The Good: The pants fit great. They have the side pockets and drawstring for tightening up for smaller medium waists. The top and bottom match perfectly and I was so happy I could buy them as a "set" versus having to purchase separately. I also was thrilled to have a matching robe for each of the three sets I purchased. The Expected More: The armhole fit in the top is binding when moving your arms forward or simply walking. Its not so severe that I would not wear it, but its not comfortable for sleeping in them. And not something I would wear than for my mornings or evenings. The pajama top has no coat/hanger hook. And the LL Bean tag cannot be used as a hook. The same is true for the pajama bottom. I find that a must. I'll be returning two of the three sets I purchased that I have not worn.

These have been my go to pajama for years. Recently ordered a pair for winter 2019. They changed the cut and they are slimmer in shoulders legs and arms. I would not consider this a full fit. Additionally the flannel was a little stiffer and did not feel soft like my former collection. I returned these and won't trust trying another pair ever again.

I ordered this which clearly showed a woman wearing them. When I received them, I washed them and put them away for cold weather. I just got them out for a cold night and discovered they were MEN'S pajamas. They buttoned on the man's side and were really really big. Ugh. I will have to donate them. I'm disappointed in LL Bean misleading me. I gave them 2 stars because the quality is nice.

Nice material, soft. Size was off. Sleeves were short. Pants were perfect, prewashed.. You know what happens to flannel when it's washed. Thirdly, the monogram. Nice touch, except it was as large and bold as possible. Not done with subtlety or class. Llbean cut back on monogram options. That may be part of the problem. Other part was placement, regardless of monogram size . Collar when unbuttoned covered the monogram.

I know I'm not the biggest guy around but the length of the pants are obnoxiously long! I literally can fold them back over and they come back up to my knees. That well over a foot to long! Others have left reviews to the length being to long and they are 100% correct! I will have to take them to my tailor and have them shortened. Kinda frustrating to be out the time and expense when your talking about a premium set of PJs from a reputable company. Whats odd to me though is the length of the sleeves are perfect in the shirt but the pants are rediculously long. Another complaint I have is the female area part of the shirt where the buttons go into isnt sewed down on the inside. So there is this floppy part that's rather annoying on the inside! If they had simply spent an extra 3 seconds and sewed it down it wouldn't be floppy. This was a Christmas present from my kids and they had it monogrammed so I cant exactly send it back. For the price I'm very dissapointed. The over all quality is pretty nice, in fact it's very soft and durable feeling. If it wasn't for these 2 huge oversights I'd be in love with these and ordering another pair!

Expensive for PJ's. But it was my husband request. After two washes, two buttons came loose. And slight color fade. This will be last order with LLB.

I expect a high quality flannel for the price and being LLBean but that is not the case. When wash and dry the material sheds a large amount and became very thin after 2 washings. Won't last and not as warm as should be.

I was not happy with the quality of the flannel the pajamas we're made of. When the person held the pajamas up to look them over I could see through the fabric which I expected more thicker fabric for $69 95, I will never purchase another pair from L.L.Bean.

I bought the blue plaid which was lovely and soft. However even after three washings the lint was impossible.

The material is very thin and the quality was not what I expected. I did not like the feel of the material.

I bought these flannel pajamas a year ago but am writing about it now since I only wear it during winter. There are two problems. First, after a few washes the material does not look good or feel comfortable. But the main problem is with th material that folds over the inside of the buttons and buttonholes going into the collar. After washing the lining material comes outside of the pajamas and it is not finished on the inside of the lining so it does not look or feel very good. A simple solution would be to sew the lining under the buttons and collar in place
