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

The scotch flannel and Portugues flannel of your pjs the last 2 years pill horribly. I have several LLBEAn from 20216 that are great, never pilled and 4 years later, hold up very well. You need to change your buyer so they can wash the flannel a few times to see if they pill. I always shop LLBEAN but not sure I will get flannel pjs any longer from you if the flannel continues to pill.

I originally bought the size L but it swallowed me up. So I exchanged for a M. The bottoms fit perfect and the top was a bit snug. I am not big chested but seems to be a big difference between L and M. That being said I returned them, very begrudgingly because I absolutely loved them. Super soft and comfie.

Unfortunately the first time I washed these pajamas, a lot of LINT was left behind. It made a mess. I decided to give them a try anyway. I washed them a second time and the lint was a bit better, but the fabric remains pilled and looks worn. I am keeping them, they fit pretty good although a bit large, but I prefer that. I would not buy them again. I just feel that the fabric is sub-standard quality.

I rarely write reviews but felt the need to share my experience with these pajamas. I just received the pjs and have not washed them yet. They seem well made and are very soft however, the sizing is hard to understand. The bottoms are two sizes too big yet the top is almost snug. I worry that if the top shrinks in the wash it will no longer fit!!!. Also, as I ordered the petites length I was hoping that the length would not be too long. I am 5' and the length is still quite long. As I had them monogrammed it may be hard to return. Ordering another size will not solved the size issue. There definitely needs to be better quality control on sizes. This is one of the rare occasions that I have had such an issue with L.L. Bean.

I have two pairs of the Stewart plaid in the XL size because of my experience with the Black Watch size L. The odd experience for these Stewart pairs is that the pants itch like crazy no matter what detergent I have used, but by turning them inside out, there is no itching. I suspect that something in the weave itself has put the short stubs of cotton on the inside of them. The tops are just fine. The Black Watch pair seems to shrink, even as I have lost ten pounds. Again, I believe that there is something in the fabric itself that is the culprit because the same thing happens with the Black Watch women's flannel shirts I have. All are washed in cold water and dried on lower temperature, then hung out to get the collar and waistbands dry; I do that so the fabric stays soft and doesn't get "cooked," yet the Black Watch shirts become brittle. Very disappointing. I hit the "recommended" button because there's a lot of snuggly-feeling good in the Stewart pjs, not so much the Black Watch.

I received these pj"s for a gift. I like the fit and feel of the flannel, however there are very scratchy tags on them, tops and bottoms. I cut the tags as close as I could and still wake to scratch marks on my side. If I cut the tags off it would leave a seam opening. Dissapointed in these since I have an older pair that doesnt have this problem.

These jammies were so soft when I opened them that I couldn't wait to wash and put them on. I was so disappointed to do so, only to find that the bottoms were extra roomy and the top too fitted! If anything, I am larger on the bottom, so I found this odd. These are made for someone with a narrow upper body for sure. I was hoping that they would be big and roomy all around, but found them confining and uncomfortable. Sadly, they are going back.

I bought these for my wife who is tall and slender. I started with the mediums tall which was way too big. I exchanged them for the small tall but they are still too big (especially in the waist/hips). I have never had to buy my wife an extra small before but might have to exchange them again. I think LLBean is making the mistake that has been true in the past. Tall does not equate to size. Tall women are often slender theses days.

I purchased this as a gift. The fabric is a light-weight flannel, NOT the same fabric that's used in the men's flannel shirts. The pants are HUGE in the hips, although the recipient said they fit normally in the waist. She said the top fit well. (She has narrow shoulders). She chose to keep them.

I need a medium top and extra small bottom. I compromised and ordered size S and it was much too big. The pants were much too long and would have had to be altered. Even though the quality was excellent, I returned the pajamas.

Tried on the small and the medium, but due to the GIANT size of the bottoms (look v silly) went with the small.The bottoms on these are HUGE and the top is sized fine. Only problem is when you wash them (even not on hot and tumble dry low) the pants shrink so they fit better, but the top shrinks to too small a size. They also show wear very easily. Very comfy material and cute prints, but was disappointed with the quality and high price. Wish you could order separate bottoms/tops and that they would start doing pre-shrinking or non-shrinkable materials. Also where one of the buttons was sewed ripped very easily. May return for the medium and try to just shrink the pants?

The flannel L.L.Bean uses these days is appreciably thinner than it used to be. I don't expect these pajamas to last for years the way Bean products once did. The pjs fit as expected. I love that the pants have pockets. The monogram was a disappointment.

I wanted to wear these on Christmas Eve and even had them monogrammed. But the width of the legs on these pants is huge! I own at least 5 pairs of LLBEAN pajamas and these are cut very differently. Top fit normally. Flannel is beautiful but I sent back due to proportion of top width to bottom width.

The fabric is very soft, but it doesn't wear well. I had dust bunnies from it all over the house and inside the dryer. By contrast, my older Bean PJ's look far better--after years of washing.

The top fit fine, but the bottoms were like clown pants. I wish I had the options to mix and match top and bottoms sizes because the fit was very off. I had to return, which is too bad because they seemed like great quality, good colors, and very soft!

First of all, I really love the coziness of these pjs. They truly are soft and comfy. However, they are cheaply made and definitely NOT worth the 69.00 price tag! I was expecting a well made product up to the LLBean standard, but this was not it.

I really wanted to like these pajamas. Unfortunately, I'm returning them because the top is so tight in the shoulders. The fit is generous in bust, waist, hips and length. I thought about ordering the next size up, but it would be way too large in everything but the shoulders.

These pj's fit great. The fabric is thinner and softer than the men's pj's, They feel warm and cuddley, but the negative is that after having washed them twice, they are shedding all over the house wherever I walk. My pj's are black watch plaid, and black balls are continually being spread on my light colored rugs, floors, and bathrobe. I'm giving my vacuum a thorough cleaning because it wouldn't even pick the balls up.

The fabric was sensational --thick, soft, and warm. Unfortunately, the top was slightly snug and the pants were very large.

I asked the customer service person about the length. when i received my pj's i was disappointed. i am only 5 fr and this is the first time in 35+ years that something has been too long. i always buy my jeans and pants/slacks in petite and i have never had to have anything shortened. these pjs were petite large(i've bought them in the past} and they were way too long for me. i guess the good thing is that they shrunk and the length is fine but they also shrunk in the shirt portion. i usually try these things on but when i was in the store you had no petites at all. next time i will either shop another store or come a little later than i did hopong they are in the store

My old LLBean jammies are falling apart, so I was hoping to reorder them, as I love them. Unfortunately, they are no longer available, so I ordered these. These are not tailored attractively, and the bottoms are enormous compared to the top. They also have a slight roughness to them that I would never want in a pajama. I washed them, hoping the bottoms would shrink down a bit, but to no avail. I will be returning them.

These pajamas are pretty, feel soft to the touch (haven't worn them yet) and seem like they'd be warm. However, they shed massive amounts of lint. By massive I mean *handfuls* (plural) after the first wash, a good handful from the second, and noticeable amount from the third. "Lint" doesn't adequately describe the situation as what shed was clumps, not tiny fibers. I washed them inside a mesh bag to try to contain the mess somewhat. They shrunk slightly although they were hung to air dry. The fit is a bit odd - and the pants are huge (hip especially, but also the waist). I exchanged for one size smaller and they're still very big. If not for the fact that these were a gift I'd return, but the gift giver really wants me to have them. I would prefer being able to find LL Bean women's clothing in tall sizes - but the pants hem is generous enough that I can let it down.

My only complaint is that we were not hold about a standard blemish that will occer over the monogram lettering. This blemish is removed during the first wash. It would have been helpful if LLBean had posted this info on the web sight. Thank you! Peter

I have several pairs of these Bean plaid flannel pj's, and all four of them are size large. This is the first pair that actually IS large. I'm swimming in them, even after washing and drying. The flannel is thick and this pair comes with pockets in the pants and a drawstring, which are a nice and unexpected bonus. The flannel has shed quite a bit of blue lint in two washings, and the drawstring seam has disintegrated. The flannel is soft and hopefully will shed less lint as I keep washing it. Wish I had tried them on before washing so I could have returned them for a size medium.

Let me start off by saying I'm pretty short, 5' tall. The shirt is a few inches shorter then it should be even on my short frame. And then the pants, they are made for someone who is about 6' tall. I love LL Bean and their regular flannel but I'm not sure who decided the sizes for these pjs. The only person they will fit is an extremely long legged and short torso person.
