Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Shirt

I really love this pattern and the softness of the flannel but in spite of me washing in cold water and not drying it in the dryer, it has shrunk up in the length and the sleeves as all my other LLBean flannels have. It fit beautifully before I washed it, now it is short!

I have many of these flannels and like my older one much better! I wear a size medium regular. 34" waist, 38b bust, & 43" hip. They are true to size for me. These newer plaid shirts are a thinner material, the stitching is not even on the cuffs and is coming out in several places, the plaid isn't matched, and the material is prone to piling and fading after only exactly three washes on gentle cycle, washed inside out, alone in the wash, and then air dried! I like the older LL Bean flannels much better being those back!

I fell in love with the colors in this shirt! Unfortunately after laundering the shirt p, it was a bit too snug in the bust area. .I can wear it with a tank top but never buttoning itwhich defeats the reason I bought it.

Nice shirt, well made, great winter color. Washed up with no shrinkage. Very warm.

I have worn Bean's flannel shirts for many years, and bought a new one this year in a color that caught my eye, Washed Buchanan. The color is lovely and can be worn with many different colored tees/turtlenecks. However, that is the only good thing I have to say about the shirt. Yes, the price is lower than in the past, but so is the quality. There is no pleat in the back, so it is a closer fit. It feels shorter. There is no mid-button on the sleeve. The fabric is thinner. It feels cheap. After being a Bean customer for over thirty years, I am so sad that quality is slipping like this. What a shame. I will keep the shirt and wear it under a sweater, but I will not buy another.

Flannel feels bulky, not cozy. Also looks like it might pull with a few more washings.

I love this material - it's so soft. I wish this was slightly more fitted; when worn buttoned up it looks a little boxy. For fall, I have been wearing it unbuttoned with a more form fitting shirt, and using it as a light jacket. However, the biggest nail in the coffin for me is the length of the hem at the bottom of the shirt. After a couple of washes, it has curled up, which means I will have to iron this shirt. I don't mind ironing special occasion outfits, but I really don't want to do this with my casual wear.

Ordered petite large. The flannel, color and cut were nice, but the sleeves were about 3 inches too long. I order petite because it is usually in the correct proportions. I am exchanging for petite medium. Hopefully the sleeves will fit a little better. The same is true of two Oxford shirts I ordered at the same time.

I've been a Bean customer for many years. I own many flannel shirts some Bean and some Duluth Trading. Hate to say it but it's a little too obvious that Bean is trying to offer a product that's a more reasonable price. The flannel is cheaper, my shirt shrunk and there's only one pocket. "A" for effort for trying to make the flannel prettier tho!!

Okay, was excitedbut then it arrived. Colors were not like any on the pictures. And tho I expect that a little, for me, too much. And it being a tallthe sleeves were too short?? Puzzling when the measurements should Normally be great..? So over alla return, sadly. Wish they had more talkssleeves especially! Okay LLBean, hope this helps folks

fabric is lower quality, it's fussy to bad not the usual quality, don't like pleat in the back

I purchased this flannel shirt size medium, color: MacRae Hunting Modern in the store on October 17, 2024, it fit nice in the store with room to spare, and looked nice on. The washing instructions are: machine wash in cold water and dry on low heat or line dry. First time washed on 10/19/2024 in cold water and machine dried on low heat (I always wash new clothes before I wear them) was not good = unfortunately it shrunk and is now tight in the arms, across the bust, back and sleeves are a little shorter so I suggest buying the next size up or avoid machine drying.

I wish that flannel shirts were still made with princess seams. That fir is so much more complimentary,

I have loved LL Bean in the past, but their quality is NOT what it once was and the prices MORE! They have cut a lot of corners, thin flannel, no side pockets, and the much-loved flex flannels are only for men now, nothing for women-seriously!?! Great colors though.

The Scotch Plaid Flannel is very soft and roomy. Slight shrinkage with washing and drying. The only negative is that the material pilled up after only ONE washing. Such a shame because it looked really nice out of the package. Too bad... it is now a yard work shirt. Won't purchase again. PLEASE bring back the organic cotton flannels. They held up VERY well to washing.

I have many of Bean flannel shirts so I ordered my usual size. Unfortunately, this year the sizing seemed way off with long sleeves and overall length for being a petite size. I returned and didn't bother reordering as the pattern looked better in the catalog than on me. I wish a few more feminine options were offered such as softer colors or smaller, less bold plaids. I live in an urban setting and don't always want to look like I'm about to set out on a hike in the country.

The fabric colors are marvelous, and the quality is obviously LL Bean 'made to last." My problem with the shirt is that it is a "relaxed fit." I didn't realize that it would be much larger around than I like, so I am giving it a 3. I am keeping it because I can wear it open and I love the unique combination of yellow, purple, black and red etc. I've never seen that plaid before.

This shirt came in Dark Indigo, but I much prefer the color Black Watch. I hoped the fabric was lighter than my other flannels. It wasn't so I will now look for a boy or men's cotton shirt to try on.

I have several of these shirts, love the soft material and they last a long time. I have noticed that the Tall sizes are a little more fitted in the waist than the regular size, and the arms can run a little narrow. The Royal Red seemed, to me, a little more pinkish than I was looking for and the background color in the plaid is not white (which I would like better) but a putty or ivory color. I am returning the Royal Red for another color.

I love this shirt! The plaid is so beautiful I bought both a men's shirt and boxer shorts and a shirt for my daughter and one for myself. Would you please consider making a women's pajama pant. I am see many happy evenings this coming fall!

Nice construction and fabric, but the cut is a bit arrow and skimpy in the sleeve width for a garment often worn as a casual jacket over t shirts.

Loved the flannel material and the lady helping me pick it out. I only wish it was more fitted like the old days, the newer cut is more boxy.

disappointing. I waited over a year for this to become available in petite. It started to pill after the first washing and continues to get worse.

Ugh, apparently I'm sized out of anything that is a "relaxed" fit. That's crazy because I know there are people smaller than me. I'm 5'7" 120 lbs and should be a small per size chart. Tried the xsmall and it's laughably wide through the chest and body. Fits well across the shoulders but the cuffs hit just above my wrist. If you are making a range of sizes like regular/petite/plus then please attend better to proportions appropriate to these size ranges. Now I'm wondering where I can go to find a quality fleece shirt that fits my body.

Been wearing LLB flannel shirts for years - strayed once and learned my lesson - LLBs last much longer and don't pill as the "other brand" did. I usually get darker colors - this time went for one in orange/yellow light green/blue and I really like it. Fits like it was made for me. No complaints, nothing but compliments.
