Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Shirt

My boyfriend bought me this shirt for Christmas and I was ecstatic because I loved the colors and the material. However, I was dismayed by how large it was on me. I have naturally broad shoulders and typically wear a medium in clothing. I am also 5 foot 6, which I do not feel is terribly short. I could not believe how large this item was...it fit more like a dress than a shirt. Now I am sad that they are out of the color he originally bought me in smaller sizes.

It's a very thick flannel. It got felt all over the other clothes in the wash.

Longer and bigger than previous years. I miss the old version that fit shorter in sleeve and body length.

I liked everything about this shirt until I washed it. It shed all over the rest of the laundry. It is also piling all over. I ordered a similar shirt from another manufacturer and it does not have this problem.

The quality of fabric is not like the flannel shirts I have purchased from LLBean fir the last 40 years. Not very high quality.

In the past, I have loved this shirt for its soft and warm flannel and the scotch plaid patterns. What happened to the button down collars? What happened to the usually offered scotch plaid colors? I was hoping to get black Stewart this year as it usually sells out but I don't see that it was offered this season. On another note, the corduroy big shirt is not even found this year. It is usually offered in great jewel tone colors for the winter blahs. Perhaps I have missed it in the past couple seasons as I also have three of these but needing new ones. I find myself looking for resale items on other websites to find the older styles and colorsGood grief.

I bought two of these flannel shirts last year and love them. They are warm and cozy and the fabric has substantial weight. The only thing is that they weren't 'tall' sized, which I need, but I bought them anyway and still like them. This year I was excited to see the flannel shirts available in talls so I ordered two, but they are so much lighter and thinner than last year's version. Feel cheaply made and nowhere near as warm. Bummer.

Beautiful color and feel. Well constructed. Too bad it is not offered in a 1X tall. Just a little too snug for the Tall XL.

The shirt just didn't fit me right. Too tight through bust and belly

The color doesn't look like the color in the photo on-line. And the fit is not very "relaxed". It's also very lightweight.

Love the shirt but I miss the button down collar. I'm still waiting for the button down style to return.the flannel is a good weight and super soft. It wears well on its own, over a tee, or under a sweater/sweatshirt, except for he collar creeping out over the neckline.

Beautiful and of quality material. Unfortunately it does not fit my plus figure. It I'd too large in the top and sleeves, which are very long on me, but tight around my hips.

I loved this shirt until I tried it on and immediately noticed that the plaid does not meet at the seams. A quality garment MUST have the seams meet or the unmatched seams become very obvious. I am disappointed in LLBean for putting this shirt out there. I will be returning it, regrettably.

In the past, I ordered PS of this shirt. But after washing it, the sleeves shrank so much that it looked ridiculous. Once the cuff was buttoned, I couldn't raise my arm. I don't know why I didn't return it. I donated it instead. So this time, I ordered PM and it was too large, even for relaxed. I washed it, thinking that it would shrink like the PS shirt. But it didn't. It remained too large for me and the sleeves were still too long. I really wish LL Bean was more clear about shrinkage of their flannel shirts. This time, I will be returning it for refund.

I was a little saddened that it wasn't the same quality as my older Portuguese flannel shirts that I have from LL Bean. I always prewash before the first wearing, and it had pills. The older shirts seem to have better weaving. On this new one the emphasis seems to be more on soft fluff, similar to Land's End. I prefer the older shirts. I guess LLBean went with a different manufacturer in Portugal.

Runs big. I got a medium and I wish I had gotten a small.

Beautiful fabric but it's a little small. I wish I would have ordered the large instead of the medium. Unfortunately I washed it because it didn't smell fresh - maybe that's why - did it shrink?

The feel and quality of the fabric are wonderful, but the length of the sleeves was way off. Even if I turn the whole cuff over it was too long.

Got my regular size L, it is very snug in the arm holes and narrow across the shoulders. Sleeves proper length. Fabric is nice weight, soft. It seems to run slightly small. Have not washed it yet so I do not know if it will shrink much.

I purchased this for my daughter for Christmas 2019. She has one in the Wallace tartan, which she liked so much that I bought her another in the gray Stewart. I only became aware that she doesn't wear it because it is much bigger than the first, though it is the same size in a relaxed fit. The shoulders are wider, the sleeves are longer by 2 inches, and she was wondering if we were sent the men's size medium by mistake. It's a beautifully-made shirt of substantial fabric, but I can't give it a better rating because she is unable to wear it.

Nice overall, however it was narrow through the shoulders and short in the sleeve. I am 5'8" and a slim build. 125-130 lbs.

I usually wear a size Large in shirts so I ordered the same for this one. At first it fit great but after the first wash it shrunk. Still fits so I didn't return it, but can no longer be worn as an overshirt. Flannel is perfect weight for indoors and I do love the black and white plaid. Next time Ill order the XL.

I bought this for my daughter who has a long torso. She found it too short, so I returned it. I wanted to buy one for myself as it felt so soft and nice, but they were out of the colors I liked.

It's a shirt. It's ok. WHY would I bother to review anything from you? If I do, giving a GREAT review, BTW, you will just refuse to print it and also refuse to tell me why you won't print it. No way would I ever spend the time to talk about your stuff. Now go ahead and don't print this.

I had to return this because it was a touch too tight. I bought a 3x and am normally a true 3x. it was a nice, heavier weight flannel, though.
