Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Pima Tops Shaped V-Neck Short Sleeve Tee

L.L. Bean's Supima tees are the gold standard. They are substantial, wear very well and shed wrinkles. One complaint: the color is called Sea Glass. It's really Mint. I want chocolate brown.

Purchased 3 pima tees, have ordered before. Comfort, fit, quality good. My only dissatisfaction is lack of color selection. I waited to order, hoping to have more options, but ultimately purchased less desired colors.

I wear petite and this fits me well and is very comfortable. I really cannot complain for I have trouble finding petites of this quality in stores. Please bring more Pastel shades and patterns.

I really appreciate that L.L. Bean offers t-shirts in petite sizes. I have a very short torso so most t's hit me at mid-thigh. This shirt hits mid hip. I gave the shirt four stars because I wish the V was a little deeper. The fabric is also a little heavy for summer. The shirt fits fairly loose. Typically, I like a more fitted shirt but it is nice for summer to have a little room for air to flow. Overall, high quality fabric and construction.

One of the Pima tops I bought earlier this year I ordered a large which was too loose and a recent purchase I made was a medium which fits well. Unfortunately this short-sleeve v neck in medium was too small. I really do love the Pima shirts, it is just that this particular style didn't work for me.

I was happy to see the all cotton V neck tee return. However, it is much too long. I do not tuck tees in and these new v necks are half way to my knees. Not a flattering look. In addition, I must ask why everything has to be fitted since it is summer and tight clothes are awful in humid weather. Colors were nice.

I was glad to see v necks again. I bought one. I love the pima and I love the new longer length...howevet the short sleeves are shorter than I like. Boo hiss

I have several of this Pima T and this latest one, although a nice color, is a bit long. I am glad they brought back the v neck style as it is more flattering than the crew neck, just not quite the same as older ones.

I am very very happy you brought back the v neck. Differences, however, are the fabric, the clinginess and the longer length. The new fabric isn't as cool to wear. I'm not as big a fan as when Bean marketed the tee two years ago (it was not available in 2019).

I'm so glad a short sleeve v neck came out in the pima cotton collection! This is my go-to style. It's fits great, washes well, coordinates with everything, and keeps it's shape. I only wish the neckline was a little deeper, it could be an entire inch deeper and still show absolutely nothing. Of course we need more colors! I agree with other reviewers that L.L. Bean needs a true red and I'm a big fan of woodrose/shell pink, all of the pima shirts should come in pastels.

This shirt is nice for casual wear, slightly large for me but shrunk nicely after washing and drying in warm temp. The style is nice too.

I have several of these shirts from years past, and was thrilled to see that they're back. This year, though, the overall length of these is about 2" longer than my other ones. Maybe this "look" works for some - not for me. I will return these and order the same in Petite sizing to see if the length is shorter. LOVE the fabric, style and (otherwise) the fit. More colors, please! Would love classic red, olive green, loden green, blue-grey and aqua.

Pima STRETCH (shaped) cotton v-neck seems to run a half size smaller for the two colors I purchased, than the Pima 100% cotton v-neck in womens plus 1x that was my staple wardrobe for more than a decade. Originally the SHAPED bagged funny at the front shoulder/sleeve where the clavicle attaches, but two washes resolved this.

I have more than five of these shirts now. The only thing that concerns me is that the material shrinks lengthwise. Otherwise, they are perfect.

I now own three of these. The material is silky soft and not super thin like a lot tops these days. I have the white, teal and coral rose. These are long, but that is what I wanted so I love the length! The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that they do shrink. I measured the purple one before and after washing. Center back length before 26 inches, after 24.5 inches. Armpit to armpit 21 inches before and 20 inches after. Slight shaping to waist, 19.5 inches before, 19 inches after. I also have two of the pima tunics. They are cut a little looser and I like them even more!

Love the longer length. Tired of shirts that after one wash barely cover to the top of my pants. Wish the crew neck tee was as long. Soft fabric, high quality, not see through like most shirts these days.

Very nice material. Feels very soft and I like the fit. It is not boxy and not too tight. It did not shrink after washing and drying. I gave 4 stars instead of five because of the color choices. I ordered Clearwater Blue and would order more if lighter colors were available. Petal Pink and Cream especially.

I liked this top so much in the white I ordered this one for summer here in Florida. I know that in the description was added the shirt is now a bit longer. . .and I would have rather kept the SHORTER version! I seems more in proportion for me, at least. Am still enjoying wearing I, otherwise great fit.

I was excited to see the new longer fitted version of this shirt. Bought three and ended up returning two; really wasn't thrilled about the color choices and only kept the white one. The length is great but the shirt is a little snug down south. Side slits at the hem would help. Other than that, same great softness and quality I expect from this line.

The color, style, and fit are just as I expected, a quality LLBean shirt.

I really like the new longer Pima Cotton V-Neck Tee. I have had them in the past, but stopped wearing them because they are just too short for me. But the new style is longer like current fashion. The shirt holds up well to laundering. I will wear it a lot. It seems a little on the large size though, so if you want a tighter tee, you should size down.

Thank You for bringing back the Tee I love,live in and looks best on me-the Pima V-Neck Short Sleeve in Plus!!! Your catalog competitor's Tee lacks the material, cut and style of LL Bean. HOWEVER, I am an apple shape and am bemoaning the "slightly fitted" cut...please consider the "relaxed" previous cut which flatters my apple shape and is easy to live in. I am an older woman and "slightly fitted" reveals more than I'd like to.

I'm thrilled you have brought back the V-neck "plus" short sleeve Pima cotton tee. This neckline is most flattering on me as a "plus" woman. However, the revised cut of the tee is labeled "slightly fitted" and I do not like it as well as the previous one. In the past, the shirt was labeled "relaxed" which I like better. I am an "apple" shaped woman and I appreciate the extra material through the midriff area. The next size up is too big in the shoulders and arms. Bring back "relaxed" fit for my favorite everyday tee, perfect in every other way!!!

I usually buy a few new one each year and am very disappointed in the lack of colors. What happened to the Butter, Colbalt, Pink, the Red you have not had for years. Frustrating as I wear these daily and there are only two colors basics aside. The heathers are ok but to me too pale and look like faded Pj tops. For size they run fairly consistent the quality is decent, but they have become thinner. I have ones from years ago that are still in great shape. I am a size small 32B bra size slender with broad shoulders. These can shrink if you don't watch the dryer time. Please bring back the colors these are blah with exception of the orchid.

Unfortunately, even in cold water these shrunk 1.5 inches in the lenght
