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

I love the supima cotton tees and turtlenecks and have been ordering them for a long time. The fabric is the right weight and comfort. My only complaint is they are now a slightly fitted fit rather than a relaxed fit they once were.

Well I do appreciate the nice smooth fabric, the sizes are a bit off. I originally ordered a mediam in the regular fit; I was wearing the petite large but they shrunk up to above hip. The large regular is a bit too loose but the medium is too tight for me. I like a bit of room even though I am a size 8 small frame. The lighter colors are offputting that they show a bit too much re bra covering. The plum is great and as always the black. Hopefully will fit better if I dryer them.

Fabric and quality are fine. Just too short. Nice looking

I sent it back.. didn't like the fit. As I said with the other two I sent back, "I'm steady batting a thousand." .

I just received two new tees. I live in these tees and I know the fit. The tees I received today are not the same fit as they used to be. The sleeves are too long and the arms are too tight. Even on the model you can see how tight the arms are. The tee is just not as comfortable as it used to be.

Would like it to come down a little longer over my hops & stomach

This is a quality made tee but did not fit me well. The Pima cottton is soft. It was too short and the body much too wide. I liked the teal color.

Quality Fine, but find it too short, and I'm average size.

I've bought these before, but the one shrunk. I'm shocked, it's never happened before. I bought 2 colors and they both shrunk in length. SO disappointed

I have placed 3 different orders for ladies pima cotton crewneck tees. Just noticed they are all supima cotton crewneck tees. When I called to see why they are sending me supima rather than the Pima cotton she said they have the same item number. They do not hold up as well as the Pima cotton. She was not apologetic or helpful but rather rude. She didn't see the difference. After shopping at LLBean for years I guess I will have to find another store that treats their customers with respect and sells what the customer ordered. Very. Very disappointed.

I was excited to find this on sale. The material is real great quality but it's too short. Thankfully it didn't shrink after the 1st wash. It may be that I'm busting but the length hit just at the top of my jeans. I really don't like where it hits but will keep it for layering since it's the perfect red for my son's hockey team.

Absolutely love the soft fabric but the shrinkage is terrible! I washed in cold water and dried on low tumble as instructed but the sleeves and length of the shirt shrink by 1 inch! I compared the washed shirt to a brand new shirt and it definitely shrunk 1 inch! My advise would to go up one size so after washing it would be at your desired size. However at this price point i'm disappointed in the shrinkage and the change in quality after ONE wash. In the picture, the purple shirt has been washed in cold water and dried on low temp. the blue shirt underneath is completely new and unwashed. The purple shirt shrunk by a whole inch! I wish i had sized up if i knew it would shrink a whole inch no matter how careful you are.

Soft and warm, great for layering. Definitely note that it runs short in the body (length).

I ordered the plum color and it's a gorgeous color. The fabric is also really nice. However, the fit is really odd. It's somewhat fitted from the shoulders until it gets to waist level, which is nice, but then it billows out in the lower back. The front view pictures make it seem much more fitted than it is. They must have pinned the lower back to make it look more fitted for the photos. Also, the fabric pulls and puckers around the underarm and breast area, so you have to keep pulling the short down to make it lay flat. The crewneck is also very high and small. If I were going to keep it, I'd want to stretch out the neck before wearing it. The sleeves and body length are also a tad shorter than they should be. for a Regular, not Petite size. Lastly, and I've been noticing this with all LLBean purchases, the manufacturing smell on the fabric is absolutely awful. I could barely stand it just for the length of time it took to try the shirt on. What is being done to make these clothes smell so toxic?

I got this t shirt in tall as I am 5'8''. While the fabric is nice, I feel the sleeves are barely long enough for a tall shirt. I do not have extra long arms, as I can often wear a non tall shirt. I haven't washed this yet and if it shrinks at all the sleeves will be too short.

I bought a couple of XS Petite shirts. The shirts are high quality cotton, very soft to the touch but LLBean needs to do a much better job with Petite sizing. I am 5 ft 0" tall, weigh 98 lbs and the shirts are too wide and too short, although sleeve length is good. I even tried ordering the regular size and had to send back as it was huge in all dimensions. It would be nice to see a redesign of this shirt to make it more fitted and ensure the length of the petite size in long enough so when you raise your arms overhead the shirt is still covering the body.

The body of this shirt is fine. The fabric is very nice. I have bought similar shirts in the past that fit perfectly. The sleeves of this shirt, however, are too narrow. I am 5'5" and weigh 110. My arms are tiny, yet the sleeves are tight.

These shirts seem to be thinner than before. They are still soft and comfortable, but not as thick as the older versions I still have in my closet.

Did not expect it to be so thin. It's almost see through. My previous two in gray and tan are thicker fabric.

For my aunt. It fits ok, but not as nice as LLBean used to sell. I won't buy one again. I wish the old LLBean stuff was back.

Material and color on this were great. But the length is too short in the body - made tucking it in almost impossible. And tags which are on the side seam scratch against skin.

Good color and original fit but a bit boxy and shrunk with washing making it shorter than I wanted

I bought four t's this time. The new supima cotton acts like it has a bit of spandex. I have laundered them twice hoping they would loosen up but that hasn't happened. The sleeves are much tighter from the shoulder to the wrists than in the past. The lavender color was the most troublesome. 2 t's were great. Might be cut slightly off grain.

You have changed the quality of this product to a less quality. Previous crewneck ones were thicker and 100% cotton but not anymore .

The fit is fine and I like the color which was true to the photo. There is an odd white edge of what looked like a tag that had been removed at the waist of the left inside seam. Very small rectangular stiff strip sewn into the seam. Very scratchy and uncomfortable. I tossed it into the laundry basket and hope washing will improve the situation. There seemed no reason for this to be there.
