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

I like the fit and fabric. The only drawback is that it is tight on the armpits. Could use more flexibility there,

Ll Bean recommended navy thread. If I knew they were going to monogram the name on the black portion I would not have chose this. So Im returning to have the monogram done in WHITE.

The tartan pajamas were warm and cozy. I was reminded of the flannel pajamas my grandmother used to make. It did lose a lot of lint on first and second washing. I hope that does not continue. I use a dark blue long sleeve cotton shirt beneath it so I can be even warmer and more comfortable. I wish they had some other tartans like Stewart or Scott and then I would buy them too.

These PJs are wonderful! The only thing I didn't like is that the laundry tags are hard and itchy (Why three layers?). I cut them down to the seam and the part caught in the seam was still itchy, and now I've ripped some of the side seam trying to get the tag remnants out. I have a sewing machine, and even loaded with red thread because I was working on Christmas decorations yesterday, so it's not a major problem. But on pajamas this nice, it's puzzling to overlook a comfort issue.

I purchased 3 different colors: Stewart Victoria Tartan, Black Watch and Rob Roy. The Black Watch are a little thicker and heavier weight than the other two. I had to send the Rob Roy back because, for some reason this fabric was extremely itchy. The ones I kept are very warm, super soft and comfortable. The one big downfall is the shedding. Thus, 4 stars instead of 5. I had to launder several times before that stopped. However, I feel that the pros outweigh that one con. Pros: 1) I really appreciate the buttoned cuffs, rather than the usual wide wrist options of other flannel pajamas. You don't have all that cold draft going up your arms. 2) The elastic waist is stretchy and forgiving, never too tight. 3) Very minimal shrinkage after laundering. 4) Side pockets in the pants are a nice addition. 5) Fabric is super soft and warm.

Fit: I think I could go with XS, but I like the roominess of S. However, there are many people smaller than I am who would probably find XS to be too large. Fabric: The flannel is heavy and soft, great for cold nights. I'm pleased it is 100% cotton; I can't wear cotton/poly blends. Labels: Sigh. The labels are scratchy. I clipped them as close to the seams as I could, then sewed the seam allowances down where possible to encase the still-scratchy label edges. Please consider softer labels.

I absolutely love these PJ's they are so comfortable and the size is perfect. My only complaint is for the money I spent I think they should have lasted longer. I only wore for less than 2 Winters when the sleeve by the elbow tore from regular washing.

The flannel is soft. I put one piece in the dryer and hung the other to dry. The dryer piece pilled, so I would recommend hanging to dry. Overall I love these PJs but was disappointed that there wasn't any piping around the collar and front.

The pajamas are well constructed. The flannel fabric is lighter weight than I had expected. Love the details in the design ..... buttons on the cuffs and POCKETS!!!!! Even though they are lighter weight than I wanted, I do like the quality of the construction and the details.

I bought these primarily because they came in Tall. I like Bean styles and quality, but I need Tall sizes for all pants and some other clothing and Bean has very few women's items in Tall. The appearance of a few more in the fall catalog is welcome. The PJs fit well, but for the price, I would have liked to see more attention to detail--one lapel doesn't lay flat because the buttonhole is too high, and the fabric is a bit on the flimsy side.

I love the fabric and the bottoms fit very well. The top is too small I am larger busted and the top does not fit which is why I marked them down. I would have liked to have this color available in just the bottoms. I did buy the pajamas in another color because I do the like the fabric, the draw back is that the tops do not fit me.

Wear these all the time. They're soft, comfortable and pleasantly roomy. Wish the flannel was a bit more substantial for the price, and they do shrink a bit in the dryer. Just a note: Bought these in MacBeth and thought a monogram would be fun. L.L. Bean recommended navy and it doesn't show up at all. Maybe a nice true red for this tartan would be a better choice.

I have been buying these pj's for years. They change a little each time. Pluses are the pockets and extra width to waistband. A big minus for me are the buttons on the sleeves. Who wants to curl up and wake with a button imprint on their cheek? And I feel like I am wearing my clothes to bed. Go back to an open cuff!

I love these pajamas. This is my second set over many years. The only reason I didn't rate them a five star is that the legs are very wide. My last pair was a medium and I needed the small this time. The small legs are the same width as the medium. Small people do not want 12 inch wide legs, however, I love these flannels and I highly recommend them. If I was 10 lbs heavier they would still fit just fine. I will buy again.

I found the pants cumbersome with the pockets....made it bulky.....None of my PJs have pockets....Although it's nice to have pockets, it made them fit uncomfortable. Otherwise, like all the LLBean products, made well and would recommend.

My wife had gotten the Wicked Good Moccasins as an early Christmas gift from a family member and made a passing mention that the matching pajamas would make for the ideal Christmas morning outfit. Aiming to be a good partner who listens, I ordered the pajamas. I had read through the reviews and had a little concern that they may be too thin and possibly not hold up well. Upon receiving them, I did think that material was a little thinner than I had hoped, but ultimately my wife enjoys them, finds them comfortable, and they seem to be holding up well after a month and change of rather regular wear.

These PJ's are very comfortable, but they definitely run large, so I would recommend ordering a size down. They also shed quite a bit for some time, even after washing several times. There is little shrinkage.

Too tight and short.

I normally wear a standard medium in clothes, but ordered a size small in these after reading others' reviews. The top fits well, but the bottoms are very baggy. I'm definitely glad I sized down to a small and am even thinking I should have ordered an x-small.

I really love the feel of these flannel pajamas. They keep me warm on cold winter nights. I found that the top fit perfectly, while the bottoms are a bit generous. But they're pajamas, so who cares?!

These pajamas are warm and soft! I'm hoping they last a long time. Like other reviewers, I found the top to be slightly undersized. The bottoms were ok, but they do drag on the ground a bit. Also, I am not used to pockets in pajamas.

Although the pajama top is loose at the neck, basically it's a warm pajama, though I was sleeping in a cold room and had to keep turning the collar up and closing the neck by hand. But if your neck is well covered by warm blankets you should be okay even in a cold room.

These flannel pj's are exceptionally warm and toasty. The only fault I find with them is the sizing - I initially ordered the Petite Large and found them much too big for me so I exchanged them for a Petite Medium and unfortunately find the top to be less roomy across the chest than I wish they were. Wish we could order the tops and bottoms separately. My dilemma now is whether to return them for a refund since they are a bit pricey.

These pajamas will keep you warm, for sure! Like other reviewers, I found the top to be a really good fit for my 6ft 170 pound frame. I'm usually a 10-12 in clothing and the large was great in the top. The bottoms, however, are ENORMOUS. It looks like I'm wearing a potato sack. I didn't have any problems with pilling. The fabric is a little stiffer than I'd prefer, but they'll keep you warm. Wish the pants weren't so ill-fitting.

These pajamas are a bit of an investment but I have confidence that they will outlive many of my other pjs from different brands. These are so soft and wash well. Puts me right to sleep at night! They run a little large so I wouldn't recommend sizing up.
