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

I am use to more material from LLBean and was a bit disappointed in the size. It fits, but not with much to spare. Your shirts never use to be like that! I would not buy another one of that type. Material is excellent, just the fit. You have gotten a bit skimpy on the material. Sorry!

This top is very soft & well made & a pretty pastel color. However it is form fitting & I prefer a bit of a looser fit. I did not return it due to the fact that it so soft & feels nice to wear.

the fabric is not too thick and not too thin. the fabric is very soft. I bought six of them and am not sorry I did.

Nice fabric, but too large and shapeless. Am keeping it because it was the best I could find on the market.

Length longer than expected, but I noticed it was made in Peru, not Cambodia, as my prior orders.

In the catalog photo, the yellow color looked more golden. Otherwise the yellow - called butter- that arrived is okay.

Too long. Will have to hem it or bunch it up at hips.

I've worn these shirts for years and the two I just received were longer and more fitted than previous ones I've purchased. It's been over a year since I last ordered any shirts so sometime during that 1-1 1/2 yrs the design changed. My weight is not a factor, in fact I've lost 10 lbs, so for a medium in this style to be too tight on me was a surprise. I kept the black shirt since it was wearable but the white one in the same size and style was returned since it was too tight. Maybe mis-sized?? I still like the material but not sure I'll buy more if the fit is going be different between colors.

Really good fabric, size and colors. The length of the top is too short, though, and my tummy shows when I raise my arms.

This is a lovely shirt. It looks like a typical T-shirt and hangs like one on the hanger, so I bought without trying it on. To my surprise the fabric actually clings to my form (without being too tight.) I'm looking for a loose and flowing silhouette so I am going to return it. But if you are looking to show off your shape, you might love it!

I wear a L in other Bean shirts, but this one was too form fitting for me. Probably would have been fine in an XL. Loved the material and look of it, though

I have many of these pima tops, mostly v neck short sleeved. Large is often little small on me and Extra Large a bit big, but I go with comfort so get the Extra Large. Note - I just got the Royal Plum and online it looked more of a purple with blue tones, which is more flattering for me, but it's really more of a purple with red tones. Just so you know...

I would like to know why the V-neck tee comes 2 inches longer than the crew neck tee. Both used to fit perfectly and be a perfect length but the V-necks have been getting larger and longer. I think that if you're offering the same fabric in 2 different neck styles they should otherwise be the same.

I've been buying these shirts for decades and this v-neck has gone down in quality. It's the banding on the neck. Pima cotton tees have always had a quality look to them, making them dress casual. This year's v-neck has a recessed neck-banding and looks like an expensive t-shirt, so I returned the white one. I wanted to wear it to the office but a t-shirt is not office dress casual. I kept the black and dark blue (the banding doesn't stand out on the dark material). The crew neck still has the quality banding but this? I'm disappointed.

I am returning two of the four shirts I bought. ( I really am not comfortable returning something that i have already washed.) I have other LL Bean petite pima shirts from previous years that fit me much better than these. They are simply too long for a short waisted woman. The colors are lovely and the fabric is as nice as ever but, sadly, they are both narrower and longer than I am used to receiving.

I bought the mint and bright pink colors. Love the brighter colors. Very comfortable, love the longer length and the material is soft and breathable. Have not had them long enough to comment on the durability but it appears to be well made.

Superior fabric with a lovely soft feel and like- new luster after 2 washings makes this T my favorite. Did not shrink up short like most cotton Ts and kept the V-neck shape. The lavender color is a sophisticated shade and very flattering.

Fabric is great: looks and feels good. But fit is just a tad tight for my Petite XLarge frame. Style would be much more flattering with a curved hem. The great quality fabric deserves that extra design touch. Still, I wear these often because they are so comfortable.

Soft material, lovely color. I will enjoy wearing this shirt!

Really like the color; am not quite as thrilled with the more fitted stretchy characteristics but still like the shirt, it is light without being thin, good for hot summer weather here in SC. I rated it somewhat small due to the fitted nature: I am a bit more used to the slightly looser fitted (but not boxy) shape of the 3/4 sleeve, split neckline shirt. .

This is one of the only LLBean tees that hasn't shrunk after washing. The fabric is lovely and soft. I'd love to see more styles, especially some in a more feminine cut. Also, more classic colors - red, navy, black, ivory. I'd buy them all!

It is definitely a longer t-shirt. I love the extra length. Tried a L and XL and chose the large.

I purchased two of these tees - good quality and overall fit. I have been looking for a light weight vintage cotton or slub basic v-neck tee. Although this tee is not vintage cotton or slub - it is a good overall basic tee. It's comfortable and fits well in the shoulders and the length is perfect.

I reduced this review one star because the purple color is actually very grayish, which isn't a great color on me. The fit and quality are fine. How about a soft lilac or rich purple that isn't grayed out?

I purchased the seaglass pima v-neck in petite extra large as a gift. In my opinion it is much too long to qualify as a petite size unlike the crew neck which is shorter. It's mind-boggling why the neck style would make a difference in the length. The fabric and color are both beautiful.
