Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Pima Tops Split-Neck Tunic 3/4 Sleeve

I ordered four shirt including this one. The others fit great but this one is too large overall even in the shoulders. I felt like I had a maternity top on, and it was not flattering at all. I'm returning it.

I had ordered 2 similar but long sleeve supima shirts earlier in the year made in Peru & loved them! They seemed lighter weight & needed no touch-up ironing after wash. This order was made up of 2, 3/4" sleeved shirts that say cotton & were a bit heavier, slightly more narrow in the shoulders & did not wash up as well. I would not order another of same.

The neckline is too wide and droopy on the shoulders.

Just put on my new seaglass (beautiful color!) three-quarter-sleeve splitneck tunic. it feels and drapes differently than the others I have purchased. If you changed the fabrication I hope you will change back. Somehow this top feels and acts differently then all the others of this same item that I have.

The weight and color are really fabulous. However, after following the wash/dry instructions EXACTLY, the shirt still shrank. I even put an unwashed second shirt underneath the washed one and sure enough, the sleeves and torso length are about an inch shorter all the way around. Very disappointed, I expect better from LLBean. I would recommend ordering a size up (which may seem huge) but once washed it will get smaller and likely fit better. Color seems to have held up, just not the overall size.

I love these shirts and variety of colors. Unfortunately, they shrink several inches in the length. I wash on cold and do not dry them but they still shrink. I would buy tons of these if they didn't shrink - especially if I could dry them without shrinking. Why doesn't LLBean pre-shrink these?

The catalog said it falls at low hip, but your models must be very tall because it falls at her high! hip. You should list the actual length of the garment to help women of all heights choose the correct size! This top looked like a mini dress on me. Had to shorten and will not buy another even though I love the neckline.

This shirt shrunk lengthwise, so tho tunic length initially was ok . However after each wash dry cycle the shirt shrunk. Now after washing the shirt, I hang dry and stretch it lengthwise . But still shorter than when new

I'm very disappointed that the color was not true sienna in any shade; if anything, it is magenta or in the plum palette. I'm still deciding whether to return it. Don't understand why fabric softener can't be used when washing.

I buy these tops on a regular basis, but the fabric is thinner and does not hold its shape like the previous models. Sorry to see LL Bean change its quality of standard items.

Listen - L.L.Bean has good products, but your sizes tend to be more for taller women. My girlfriend ended up ordering a small blouse after I returned the initial purchases and she loves the fit and the comfort of the blouse.

I bought this shirt to replace one like it that I bought a few years ago. I really liked it (the old one) and the fabric was so nice, smooth and comfortable. But I got holes in the front of the old one, so I can't wear i anywhere in public. I was really disappointed because otherwise I would have given it 5 stars. I have not yet worn the one I just bought but I hope it doesn't get holes the way the first one did. I am not allowed to submit this unless I say whether or not I recommend it, so I am going to have to say no. But as I said, that depends on how this one holds up.

I love this shirt so much but so disappointed the sleeves fit tight. If I order a size up it would be too big everywhere else but the arms!

I would have given this shirt 5 stars because I loved the shirt and the turquoise color and the fabric is soft and silky feeling! It fit perfectly...UNTIL I washed it (according to directions) and now it's too snug. So disappointing...especially at these prices! Can't afford a second one.

I'm squarely between a 2X and 3X on top, so it all comes down to cut and fabric and my degree of desired looseness. This year, LLBeans plus size tops are all too short, IMO. I ordered this tunic in 3X. The "tunic" actually fits like a 2X Land's End t-shirt. I kept the shorter t-shirts to wear with skirts, they're too short to wear with pants. LLBean is finally stocking plus size colors other than pastels - what a bizarre choice. If you're looking for a true tunic (loose fitting and longer) order a size up. Maybe some day LLBean will stop deciding they know what plus size women want to wear and actually ASK US.

I purchased 2 of these and they quickly became my favorites. Which explains why I am so disappointed that grease stains are impossible to remove. I have tried every remedy known to womankind and the fabric will not release the stain. I haven't been able to bring myself to throw them out. If you never wear around cooking oil or any kind of oil, I would highly recommend these shirts. Fits as it should and so comfortable.

It seemed to shrink a tiny bit after washing. It is not as long as their other tunic tops. I will not order this one again.

I have this same shirt in blue and 2 in White from a year or 2 ago and they are perfect. This one is a different fabric and it runs large. The neck is wide and the shoulders are over the edge. I am 5 pounds heavier than when I bought the first 3. Disappointed.

I must have a dozen of these tops. All tops with a visible white imprint inside dry beautifully. Those with hardly visible white imprint are a wrinkled mess coming out of the dryer. So disappointing and annoying. Must be two different countries.

I liked the color, fabric and length of the tunic but the neckline was too low cut for me. Unfortunately I had to return it.

Years ago, I lived in LLB supima tee shirts. That was when all of the styles were available in women's sizes (1x, 2x, 3x). I particularly liked the stand-up collar which was a mock-tee style. The supima was luxurious, silky and heavy. The most recent shirts that I ordered, while fit was okay, were nothing like the shirts of the past. These recent shirts (this and the supima short-sleeved crew neck shirt) were more stretchy, fitted and clingy, and the fabric was almost like a cross between interlock (like the LLB Bean's tees) and supima. Very thin fabric, very disappointed. I will have to look elsewhere for high-quality supima.

I purchased my split t three quarter sleeve shirt recently. I purchased one last year and was pleased with fir and comfort. After wearing the new one once and washing it once the hem started to unravel. I had to stitch it back up before the whole thing unraveled. Disappointed,I expected better from llbean. I did want to send it back but didn't want to go through the hassle of going to the post office and paying for the S &H.

Like the shirt but this particular one was not quite correctly cut. I used to make all my clothes and could tell that the material had shifted during the cutting of the pattern. The neck would not lay quite right. Otherwise it would have been a great shirt. Fit was fine. Liked the length.

I liked this tunic so much that I own about 7 in different colors. Every single one of them get little holes in the front around the waistband area. I do not wear a belt that would be snagging it. I have other t-shirts that I have had for years that do not do this but every one of the LL Bean tunics do. I guess it must be bad cotton fabric. I Googled it and it seems cheap cotton fabric does this and it is so common that it isn't hard to find it on the internet.

This shirt fits great and is comfortable. The problem is with the color. I ordered Coral Rose which shows on the website as a nice deep color. What I received was more bright and pink. Fine if that's the color you want, it will be going back.
