Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Carefree Unshrinkable T-Shirt without Pocket Short Sleeve

My husband loves these short sleeve Tees with pockets. He wears them all year long because he is very warm most of the time. They wash, dry and wear forever without shrinking or going out of shape. Other brand name Tees do not compare to the LLBean Tee.

I have many of these t-shirts in both long- and short-sleeves. They fit really well and last forever. In fact, I have only worn out one in the last 5 years. The colors barely fade and they just get better with washing.

These tees somehow do seem not to shrink. I've been buying them for years. I only wish they had more colors, especially since a few colors are near-dulicates of other colors. Also there seems to be no pilling. It is a shame that the price increased by $4.95

He says the no-tag label is the best. He likes the fit and comfort. The shirts I bought him will be well-used.

These are nice, hold their color well and are comfy.

Two years ago I bought about a dozen new t-shirts of different colors with and without pockets that were a famous athletic brand name starting with a R***** ending with a l for a little less than half the cost of LL Bean's Carefree Unshrinkable shirt. Recently I gave them to a friend but explained why (mainly that they didn't keep their shape) and that I was ordering some from LLBean to replace them. I still have some Bean t-shirts that are at least eight to ten years old that have retained their shape and color. Maybe the shirts I bought were less expensive and seemed like a good deal at the time, its not when you have to buy replacements for them in such a short period of time.

I bought these shirts for my son-in-law, he loves them, he says they feel good and have some body to them, my daughter loves them because they don't shrink when they are washed, they keep their shape etc. So I feel good about buying them for him.

These are the only tee shirts I buy. The cotton is comfortable, the colors stay vibrant after many washings. I hope LL Bean always has these available.

These shirts may be the best value offered by LL Bean. I purchase 5 -6 per year, but my drawer won't close because they never wear out, stretch, or fade. You can't get rid of them!

very comfortable and soft-love these t's

I work a lot outside and this shirt is very comfortable and cool to have on. I have bought several of these T-shirts before and I love them.

My husband loves these shirts. He wears them everywhere he can. We have tried the other like brands and prefer these for price, quality,fit and durability.

This T-Shirt was excellent.

These shirts are amazing and I'll purchase no others for my husband. They launder so beautifully and look so nice; they're soft and the colors stay just the way the day I bought them. Love them! Love them!

I have worn these shirts daily for more decades than most people can remember. They are generous in size, well made, and a bargain for the price. LL Bean is a unique company that finds and trains employees that care. When I needed to change an order during a hurricane affecting Maine (on a Sunday), the people I talked to were as nice and helpful as they always are.

Casual, rugged, warm shirt Tee shirt with a useful pocket! I carry my iPod Touch in the pocket when wearing a shirt w/o a pocket. Complementary colors go well with Sunwashed Canvas Shirt, both long and short sleeve.

I bought 2 short-sleeved and 1 long-sleeved tee for my grown son - very well made and very comfortable.

I have found it difficuilt to find t-shirts with a pocket that are a good quality. After receiving my new shirts I was very impressed the the quality and weight of the shirts. They have washed well and look terrific. Needless to say, I will be purchasing more of these shirts. thanks LL Bean

I wouldn't buy anything else. These shirts wash up great and hold their shape after numorous washings.

I've often purchased polyester or nylon shirts just to make sure the collar stays "round" but these thick cotton shirts are the answer to that problem. Haven't washed 'em yet so I may update this to confirm they're still keeping their shape.

As advertised these shirts fit well, don't lose their shape and excellent value.

When I asked my husband what he liked about the LL Bean T-shirt he said that it was hefty, fit well and, most of all, had a pocket. The grey color was a nice alternative since white does not do well with our water situation.

I have, over the past three years purchased over a dozen of these shirts in a variety of colors. I have never had a problem with any and contine to be pleased with the construction, wearability, and good looks. My only problem is that I have so many at the exclusion of other styles and brands but since l.l. Bean continues to add new colors I'm happy. The most recent "brown" is just great!

This t-shirt lives up to its name. The price is a bit higher than your average t-shirt, but the quality makes it well worth it. The large size fits just right. It fits well around the neck which is sometimes a problem with other tees. I expect it will hold up and look good for quite a long time.

I had this same shirt for years. When it finally needed replacement, it was an easy task. Although I erred on the size, there was no problem in exchanging it via UPS. The pocket is the best place for my rdg. glasses, always available. Love the basic(no messages) shirt, soft, comfortable, and casually suitable.
