Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Pima Crew Neck Long Sleeve

Nice tee, same as so many of these that I've gotten from llbean, BUT this butter color tee has sleeves that are cut narrower than what you've offered before on a size small/petite. No way could I go to a larger size to get more sleeve room; I best fit the extra small and I only order smalls in your long-sleeved items specifically to get a correct sleeve. I hope that there's just been the slip in the attractive butter color and that others I'd want to order would not have this same aggravation. By the way, I continue to wish that you'd offer a wrap, a shawl or stole type item of the same good supima cotton. Buttonless clunky "jackets" really don't fit the bill for a good-looking combo with a little style.

Fit and style are excellent, but the length needs to be longer. In short sleeves, as a petite, I can order a regular to get the proper length. But in long sleeves, I need to order the petite so that the sleeves are not too long. Then the overall length is too short.

This is one of the best T-shirts I have ever owned. I would have a closet full of them save for one thing: the color palette is positively woeful. Whoever picked these colors should be "drawn and quartered". Just awful.

Have many, many of these shirts. Liked the shorter version but still good quality. Disappointed in the Rich Turquoise, not at all as pictured, very dark. Muted Lavender is as shown. Would like some light colors, like the Rich Turquoise shown in picture to wear under dark sweaters for winter.

Nice fabric, great colors, fit is slightly large otherwise doable for me. I got the crew neck style but would love to see a narrow v neck style.

practical and attractive tee, soft pima cotton, nicely finished beautiful color blue.

It feels terrific, but I wish the coral color were slightly more orange and less pink.

I returned the item due to color but would also love if the pima tshirts were a little longer. The size L is now necessary as clothing becomes more form fitting and I am facing the senioritis of a larger middle.

I've worn theses lovely shirts for years, this season choice of colors is very disappointing. Where is the customary variety of pink, yellow etc?

Everything about the fabric is great as usual. This is my first batch (7) of these crewneck tees. The neck binding is stitched starting from a shoulder seam so it sits unusually thick on one side. You don't do that on turtlenecks or on V-neck tees, of which I have many. It could just as easily start from the back. Thank you.

I love the feel of these shirts; the fabric is very soft and substantial. My main complaint is that these shirts shrink in length if dried in the dryer, so after this happened to the first one or two I bought, I've been hanging them to dry- not as convenient but keeps them from shrinking. The sleeves are long on me, but most LL Bean shirts are; in fairness, I think my arms are shorter than average, so if your arms are of average length, these should be fine on you. Just keep in mind the shrinkage in overall length of the body of the shirt. If they offered long length shirts, as they do with men's shirts, I'd probably try one to see if I could dry it in the dryer. Also, I wish that v-neck shirts were offered in the long-sleeve style.

The fabric and construction of this tee shirt are wonderful. However, i agree with the other reviews that the shirt is just too short! Perhaps a "tall" could be added to the options.

I loved everything about this tee except the length. If it was 2-3 inches longer it would be perfect. I know tunics are available, but not crew neck.

I wanted to give this a 5-star rating. The color is so rich and I know it will hold up through many wearings. Great for layering. I took away one star because it comes out of the dryer wrinkled, even with fabric softener and grabbing it right away. The wrinkles go away after wearing for an hour but still... Don't want to have to dash to the dryer every time I wash it.

I probably own 10 of the LLBean long sleeve pima t shirts but this one is my favorite. It is the color of the shallow part of the Caribbean and soft as sand. While I wash it in cold water and dry it on a rack, I do worry about it shrinking in torso length as all the rest have. But I will love it in the meantime.

I love this shirt (have bought several over the years), and the only thing I don't enjoy about wearing it is that it's too shortwill not stay inside my jeans or pants. I would gladly pay more for a longer shirt perhaps a tall to give more length.lov

Wears well after many washes. Would like a little longer

I returned the shirt because it was a little small, but mainly because the red was not really red as I was told by the man who I placed my order with.

Purchased for wearing for work, good except a bit snug in the biceps.

I love the soft material and neckline. The arm length was perfect. I wish the body length were a bit longer

Have ordered this item many times in different colors. The white is a very bright white which I like. They do shrink easily and loose their shape after several washings. I dry in dryer for about 10 minutes to remove any wrinkles and then dry on a drying rack. Lasts longer this way.

The fabric is wonderful. The fit is good except I think it is a little short. It will be fine but I will not be putting it in the dryer.

Soft material, very comfortable, good colors but they do shrink in the wash, buy up a size if needed.

I own at least 10 of these and I find the size is perfect but not if you dry them. I'm long waisted and they do shorten if dried. They are the perfect weight to layer.

I am petite, but have long arms, so find the regular cut in most of LL's tops fit me better. I have owned several of these in various colors. They hold up fairly well (except BLACK, which typically fades after several washings). It is a nice weight for year round wear here in Florida.
