Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Organic Flannel Shirt Plaid

I have three of these shirts in colors no longer offered. They are wonderful, soft, warm shirts. I wanted to add to my collection, but 3 color choices are so drab and depressing. The pretty bright blue choice is sold out, no surprise. Please bring back more nice colors!

Love these shirts but sizing is inconsistent between colors.

If you bought one of these a year ago, it is nowhere near the same. Neither size nor overall fit, nor length the same. I LOVE the one I bought last year and felt this would be the same. It was not. Very disappointed. Kept it to give to someone else in family but will not order this organic flannel shirt again unless I go to the store and actually try one on.

I was surprised how thick the Organic Flannel Shirt Plaid women's shirt (petite large) was. It felt more like a flannel jacket. I made the mistake of not ordering medium so it was definitely too large for me; hard to tell if the petite large is oversized but it seems so. The flannel is soft otherwise and the deep sapphire print is a beautiful blue.

For a small petite it's still a bit big, but being all cotton, Which I love, it should shrink a little. I love the colors and comfort of this flannel! Perfect for the cooler fall & cold winter weather!

The fabric is very nice, heavy and soft. My only issue is that a shirt at this price point should be constructed so that the pattern matches a lot more on the sides. The checkered pattern is glaringly mismatched, it was the first thing that I saw.

Gray and white plaid neutral enough to go with many color tees. I already own the navy/rust plaid of last year and There is a noticeable difference in flannel quality. Much thinner and not as much flannel loft. I'm hoping it doesn't shrink when washed.

Everything about this purchase was exceptional, except the feel of the fabric; even after being washed, and fabric softener, it felt like wearing some kind of "man made fabric". I have a couple of old cotton flannel shirts from the 20th century, being on the verge of trashing, they still feel better than this shirt. I worked in weaving for 30 years, I know fabric; this is not a quality piece of clothing.

I really like the colors but the fit is way too big

It is a Christmas present for my daughter so I haven't opened it yet so cannot really say. But judging by my previous purchases from your company I am sure it will be great.

I ordered this shirt in Regular Large, the size I get in most LLBean items. It was huge. Shoulders too wide by more than an inch, sleeves came to my fingers, and so big around it was like a box. Sizing seemed to me like an XL. Returned and got a Medium. Medium is cut very narrow in the hips. Good sleeve and shoulder, but I can barely button it. I hope they fix this sizing problem. It seemed like the difference was more like a 2 size difference--from XL to Med, instead of a normal Lg to Med.

I purchased 2 shirts in Indigo Ink. The color is absolutely beautiful. It's rare to find such a subtle, pretty flannel pattern (other than Black Watch). However, given the cost of the shirt and it being advertised as a "heavyweight" cotton item, I am pretty disappointed in the quality of the material. It has a definite synthetic feel too it. It is already pilling. It is likely not 100 percent "organic" cotton. Please do better, LLBean

I was disappointed that a nice shirt like this did not match the plaids down the side seam. This is a basic sewing rule that was missed in construction of the shirt. I liked the fabric and fit. Please pay more attention in the future.

I can let you know in January xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I LOVE the fabric! Super soft and somewhat heavier than other LLBean flannel shirts. However, it doesn't fit as well. The body is four inches wider (Petite Small), than my other LLBean shirts. I will take it in rather than returning, because the arms and shoulders fit, and I LOVE the soft flannel!

I bought this exact shirt last year and it fit perfectly for me. Bought a second one this year (same color, same size) and it is SMALLER than last year's. Nope, it's not me. I tried them on side by side the other day and the newer one is a tighter fit. I don't mean the cut is different, I mean the overall fit is tighter. Maybe they're being manufactured by a different vendor this year. But whatever the reason, I'm sending it back. FYI, it's not me, I'm actually 5 pounds less this year than I was last year.

The fabric on this flannel is wonderful, soft and thick. Would have loved to have kept the shirt but returned it as the seam across the back of the shoulders is pretty thick and I find it uncomfortable as it's quite noticeable to me.

The flannel is cozy and pretty. But after 2-3 washings it shrank! The cuff is halfway between my wrist and my elbow. :(

This flannel is super soft with a nice, thick fabric. Definitely super warm and comfortable. The fit is HUGE. I recommend sizing at least one size down. I recognize that it's listed as a "relaxed" fit, but the small that I ordered fits more like a large. I'm keeping it to wear around the house for cold days, but I don't think I'll be wearing it out much due to the fit. Still, I'd recommend this to someone looking for a big cozy flannel.

I have had my shirt for nearly a year now and find it to be quite comfortable and warm. It is a nice soft heavy flannel, However I found out that it is not constructed very well. While rolling up my sleeves I noticed that one of the sleeves is quite a bit bigger around than the other. Not made very well. Not what you'd expect from LL Bean.

The shirt was well made but the sleeves were much to short! They needed to be 3 inches longer!

I bought the Bright Navy Buffalo Check in XL and it is AMAZING. It's 5 stars. So I bought the same shirt, same size in Marine Blue Plaid. Completely different fit, it was way smaller and shorter. It was 1 star. So disappointing. Thus the 3 star review overall. LL Bean's customer service was so admirable, they sent me a second Marine Blue Plaid shirt to try. Alas, it was just as bad. It seemed to be an issue with that particular plaid. I was sad to not have another of these shirts. Both Marine Blue Plaid shirts went back but I continue to be thrilled with the Bright Navy Buffalo Check.

These were lovely, cozy, well-made shirts, but calling them "tunics" was totally misleading. They looked just like a regular shirt, as they were only a bit longer than the regular length.

Nice shirt I thought a little pricey though for an import I thought I was getting a usa made product I guess I didnt research it well enough

I really liked the look and feel of this shirt, but it ran small and I returned it.
