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

The material in this shirt was not what I expected. It is very thin and clingy--maybe that's just how pima cotton is. Also, even though I ordered a petite, it was too long on me. I returned the shirt.

I've been buying clothes from LL Bean for decades and these shirts are a staple in my wardrobe. For some reason, these long sleeved shirts are an inch shorter than the short sleeved ones. They are so short, that I can't lift my arm or bend over without exposing my waist. Additionally, this is the first time I have had sleeves too short. I am on the short end of petite and have short arms, yet these sleeves ride high on my arm. I finally had the realization that this round of manufacturing may have been making children's shirts and labelling them as Women's petites. Generally, I love these Pima tees (have bought many in the past), but this batch is going in the trash.

I wish clothing designers would study actual plus-sized bodies. Shirt was super baggy but came to only an inch below my belly button. Can't wait until long shirts are in again!

This shirt fit tighter than other Pima tees I have from Bean. I sent it back.

Unfortunately, this t-shirt was a big disappointment. I actually bought two Pima shirts one light blue and one pink. The blue was okay; a bit too short for my taste, but wearable. The pink was significantly smaller. After I washed it, it was child size! I returned it. No consistency.

I'm disappointed by the skimpy fit on this top. I'm only 5'3" but I wish I'd bought the tall version. The sleeves barely come down to my wrists and it hits at the top of my hip. I was hoping for a more relaxed fit, I even sized up but it wasn't enough.

Title says it all. Pima cotton does not feel like clothes, so much as a swimsuit for crustaceans. It does not move with you, as it is stiff and strange.

Ordered two shirts - both large. This one ran small (or the other ran big). Wish sizes were consistent.

Although the fabric is "100% Supima Cotton," the feel is slippery and not soft. The sizing is way off; a medium is usually a little large on me, and this one is uncomfortably tight. I'll be donating it.

This is much shorter than the Pima Cotton v-necks I have. I'm a teacher and can't put my arm up to write on the board without the shirt riding up. Disappointed.

I have an identical one that I bought a few years ago. Lost some weight and now it is too big. So, this one is just a replacement for size. Love it!

I ordered Raven Blue. Instead I got Navy Blue which had been marked as Raven. Since I had ordered Raven Blue previously, I know that the color is wrong. The one I received was several shades darker and not at all what I wanted. It's going back and I'll be hesitant to order again.

Product arrived earlier than the other product. Obvious it was previously returned. Arrived without return label, not in plastic as other new products, had stains that even washing would not remove.

Same feedback as from turtleneck!! Very disappointing

Nice shirts, liked them but they developed holes in them just below the waistline. I think it may have something to do with manufacturing where a machine with pins grabs the shirt to fold it, or some other process and the minute holes grow bigger over time. Tried to submit photos but this web site doesn't show them uploaded.

Over the years I have purchased several of these t-shirts because the fabric is very nice. However they are always too short (and I'm not tall) and even worse, they shrink significantly when laundered (even when following instructions). Because I wear them under other layers, I've kept them, but I could never use them as regular shirts. Overall I would not recommend. Disappointing.

I normally wear medium but ordered large for a looser fit. I washed in cold water and line-dried but it shrunk to a size small.

The color (black forest green) is gorgeous; the fabric is very soft. The overall size (medium) was true. Unfortunately, though, this tee doesn't come in Tall, and the regular length is very short. I am both tall and have a long body; additionally, the tee shrank in length though it was washed as directed. It doesn't help that LLBean doesn't include garment length in size descriptions. I won't be purchasing clothing here again because it's not worth the gamble.

Much shorter in length than the short sleeve version. Shrank a bit. Will not purchase again.

I'm disappointed with this top. I bought 2 of them size medium and both are short in the length. The sleeve length is fine so going up a size wouldn't work. Very disappointing with LLBean

After the first wash the sleeves shrank and after two, the whole shirt was tight and lost its length. Supima cotton usually does not shrink, and these t-shirts will need to be tossed after the next wash. What has happened to LLBeans quality?

It shrunk several inches. Not typical of the usual quality of LLBean products. I will have to return it.

So disappointed! Colors not at all as pictured. Royal plum is brown, Violet chalk is muted grey lavender, "Indigo" is odd muted greyish. The style was BOXY, and arms baggy: under arms bellowed like a baggy sweatshirt. Petite size/fit overall ok but baggy in arms. Please make Fitted Petite Vneck tops in vivid violet, purple, magenta, berry, or, dark indigo.

I washed it n cold water and dried it on delicate and it shrank, it now has 3/4 length sleeves and short. I washed it with my jewel-neck, 3/4 length sleeve top (I purchased a few weeks before ) and it did NOT shrink! Very disappointed with the long sleeve crewneck top.

This shirt doesn't measure up. Wrinkles badly and is already starting to pill (washed twice).
