Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Shirt

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.

Really nice flannel shirt. Flannel is a little thick but it will keep you warm. I wear a 2x and it was really too small and short. Usually 2 x is big but not this shirt. It's more tailored. Please make them true to size. Thanks.

The good: nice fit, great material, beautiful colors. The bad: plaids don't match. If I had paid half for this shirt, maybe I wouldn't make a big deal, but it is so sloppy and cheap looking when the plaids and stripes don't match. It wasnt too bad on my Rob Roy shirts, side was off a bit, but the Smith shirt... nothing matched. My previous two shirts from ther last couple years matched great. So sadly they are going back. I'll try again next year.

I don't think I've ever written anything but a wonderful review for my purchases at LL Bean. This is a different story, though. I ordered this flannel shirt because I have another one and assumed the fabric and workmanship would be the same. Not so. The first wearing I kept wondering why the flannel was emitting little fuzzy bits everywhere. The fabric was shedding everywhere! After washing, I didn't notice more fuzzy bits, but the shirt looked like it had been worn for years. While the plaid is different than my previously purchased shirt, I don't understand why the quality of the fabric isn't the same. Disappointed.

Other reviews were right in that this flannel shirt is extremely soft. And I think that the fabric is excellent quality. However, I was looking for a fit that was a little bit more flattering. I started out ordering a size small and it was a little too big. So I ordered the extra small and although it fits, it's too short in the torso and the arms. And the overall look is very boxy. The size small was also a boxier fit. I just prefer something that is a little more flattering on a woman's figure.

Loved the bright colors and the comfortable fit. Much longer then expected from LL Bean's description so I sent it back. The length fit me like a tunic which I do not care for. I had ordered a shirt so was disappointed.

I changed it for a L and Petite and it was perfect.

Too small. Had to return. Store did not have larger sizes so had to place another order.

This shirt has a large plaid pattern which was not flattering on me. The plaids did not match at the side seams and was really noticeable. The deciding factor for returning it was the size. It was really large. I usually wear a 2X in Bean clothes and this was bigger than most. The sleeves were too long and overall fit was too large. I didn't try washing it to see if it would shrink to fit.

It's an ok 100% cotton flannel shirt; bought it because it said it's made in Portugal. Doesn't say Portugal anywhere on the tags, but it does say El Salvador! I'm Portuguese and I know the difference in the fabrics. Why advertise it as such?

This is a nice shirt. The flannel is heavier than I was expecting but that's OK. I like flannel shirts to be very large and this is nice and roomy. I haven't washed it yet but there is room for shrinkage. But my complaint is the color. I bought the Scotch Plaid which, online, is a bright purplish-blue with magenta stripes running through the plaid. In reality, it's a verrrry dark blue with red stripes. It looks like a very dark and very dull version of what is shown. It's a nice shirt but the color is very disappointing. I picked this color because it was bright and cheerful. What I got is very dull.

I bought two relaxed fit size extra small flannel shirts for myself right before Christmas '19. The Stewart Victoria has remained the correct size and fits perfectly. The Black Watch color has shrunk to the point that I cannot wear it because the sleeves are too short. I'm not sure what is wrong with the Black Watch color but I will be returning it.

Ran very small and not of the usual quality expected from LLBean.

I've purchased flannel shirts from LLB before with great success. However, this time I was disappointed with the quality of the Rob Roy red/black plaid shirt. I first washed it and the dryer and filter were full of red fuzz. I shook it out and more came off. But when I wore it I found fuzz wherever I went. On the shirt I wore underneath and in the carpet. I've since then washed it 3 more times and while the fuzz is dying done, I still see specks here and there. Not sure if it's just this color or if they all have this issue.

This is a nice shirt, but I have to say that the flannel is not thick. I was disappointed. I have some older flannel shirts for myself from LL Bean with thicker flannel. This was a gift and ended up being too big for the person, so I returned it. I can't really say if it is true to size or not. (gave the gift recipient a LL Bean gift card instead.)

It SHRANK and you are sold out, cannot order another. I am soooo upset. cannot close even one button!! Definitely keep it OUT OF THE DRYER

It's a soft beautiful cotton and I love the color and I will be keeping the shirt. However, I am a solid 3X. I have ordered clothes in 3X from L.L. Bean in the past, as well as other retailers. There's usually a little fluctuation, but I know it will fit. And yet, this 3X shirt, which is supposed to be a "relaxed fit" is tight in the arms and tight across the chest and doesn't look right when I wear it as a regular shirt. It will end up being an over shirt and not a shirt shirt, which is too bad. I looked everywhere online for this particular buffalo plaid shirt in soft cotton (not polyester or rayon or anything else), before finding this one, so I am disappointed. Again, I'm not returning it, because it will make a good over shirt, but I was looking for something more. So, if you are a plus size woman or a curvy woman, I strongly suggest you order a size up from what you normally do for this shirt, unless you're into clothes that fight too tightly, which is not me. I want them comfortable. And I assumed that L.L. Bean knew how to do comfortable.
