Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Streamside Tank Top Split-Neck

Great shirt, but visible seam in front and back ruins it.

Great print but the shirt runs large, width and length. Order down in size.

I got this shirt another season and was chagrined to notice when it came that it has an obvious lapped seam with threads showing right in the middle. This is just the styling I love, and the prints are great. I agree with other customers that a shirt in cotton would be preferable too. Fix those two problems and I would definitely buy this shirt!

Not a great item. Fabric feels strange. Neck opening too big. Overall fit unflattering. Prints are ok, but not worth the money even at reduced price.

Simple thin fabric, not LL bean usual, would have returned if I had paid full price. The fit was smaller the usual medium.

I like the cut, the color and the print of the shirt. Fabric very thin. Not cotton (I guess I should have read the fine print.) Split neck goes so low, I will need to wear a shirt under it.

This top was not of good quality:fabric flimsy, narrow seams, and shapeless. I don't intend to wear it, except at home, for cleaning. Not at all up to the Bean standard.

I am 5'4", 115 lbs. I usually wear a size small. I read the reviews and noted that others mentioned this shirt ran large so I ordered an xsmall. I had to return this shirt as an xsmall was not just a little large, but significantly large. I liked the style and material but the size was crazy big.

Nice shirt, but about two sizes too big

I'm a pretty reliable Medium, and this was way to big.

I didn't want to take the time to send this back so I did a tuck at the neck with my sewing machine. I am in between medium and large. I like the drape look so I ordered the large. However, the neck was so wide it slipped off my shoulder and the body of this top was just too voluminous around my body. I debated whether to send this back or not and decided to grudgingly keep it with the neck tuck.

The fabric is flimsy so the V neck collar folds in on itself.

I found this to be snug and also found the fabric to be scratchy. Would try this in a pima cotton. Perhaps in a more relaxed fit.

Unfortunately I made the mistake of not trusting my instincts. I liked the color and the way it fit when I tried the Fair Aqua one on. I did notice it was made of polyester and not 100% cotton, but I still bough it. My mistake, really. I've got sensitive skin and I find several materials super itchy and help me get a rash. And this top did. Considering that LL Bean makes other similar ones that are 100% cotton (that I also got) I wouldn't recommend this one. Why use synthetic fibers when non-harmful ones do a better job? ;)

It was way too wide for me. Something about it had more of an 'old lady' vibe rather than a cute summer shirt.

Bought 2 different colors from the store as I liked the overall fit & fabric. Washed them & when I wore one the first time, I couldn't wait to get home & take off the shirt!!! There is a 2.5 inch tag in the seam on the left side that left my skin irritated & raw! The tag in both shirts is like a thin, "plasticky" paper - so cutting it would not remedy the issue - only ripping the seam to completely remove the tag will resolve this. Such a disappointment since the tag isn't even needed! The only thing in English on the tag is LLBean Freeport Maine. Now instead of some new favorite shirts, I have the additional irritation of finding time to travel back to the store to return them for a refund! I expect so much more from LLBean! Unless they eliminate that tag, I would NOT recommend this item...or any other item with a similar tag!

This shirt was a disappointment. I laughed when I tried it on, it was so loose fitting. Definitely not something I would ever wear.

The fabric in this shirt is not the typical LL Bean quality I expect. The fit is also not great. Overall, not an impressive piece of clothing.

It has an unpleasant and plastic-like feel. I'll be returning it.

I bought three of these (2 short-sleeved. 1 long). None of them are comfortable in tropical climates like south Florida. Don't wick, don't breathe and at the end of the day they smell. Good for doing housework in AC or hiking in cooler areas.

Don't get it unless you want to look like a bag lady

Thank you for ruining my previously favorite shirt. The redesign has slimmed the body to the point where it is too tight for DD cups and above. Why did you do this? The previous design was perfect. I hope whatever cost savings you got was worth it. Now, I'll have to shop elsewhere.

The Streamside tee I ordered this year didn't have the same look or feel as past tees. The clingy, thin fabric was printed on the outside with a disappointingly indistinguishable flower pattern, while the inside showed up white. At 5'7'' with a long waist, the length for me was still too long for comfortable hiking. I ordered L for extra roominess and shrinkage protection, but could have ordered my usual M. It may have been shorter. Knowing Bean's usual quality and understated style, I was expecting a go-to tee with flair for all of my sport activities. Unfortunately, I will avoid wearing this bc it looks and feels cheap. I will stick with all cotton tees from now on.

First of all,the fabric smells. Literally stinks So style and color did not count.

Notch in neckline goes down too low. Ordered a petite in my normal size
