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

These are the best T shirts you can buy. They run a little big so I buy a Large which is the only brand I do not buy in XL. They wash great and hold up well over time. The only complaint I have is as they age the body stays perfect but the crew neck starts to get out of shape. I love the feel and weight of the fabric. They are very comfortable and are a bargain compared to others on the market!

How do I love thee? Let me count three ways- fit, fabric and collar(get ya!) I hate to rate any 'excellent' maybe 'nearly glorious' that way there's always room for in improvement.

I usually wear a size medium, but a small fit me. I have had medium sized t-shirts before and they were a little too large.

Great tee shirt though they run a little large. I bought xl and a large would have probably been fine. I haven't worn a large in anything since the 1970s.

I have been buying and wearing these wonderful t-shirts forever. I need the pocket so they have that. The fit is perfect and the fabric is so comfortable. U should try them

I took these shirts from the dryer when they were almost dry and hung them up right away. However, they were too wrinkled to wear and needed ironing. Otherwise, we are happy with our purchase.

Would like to see them size in XXX tall I like my shirts a little loose

Unfortunately too large. I take a large in T Shirts but not these. Should have returned them but was hoping they would shrink a little ... nope .... too well made! :)

Bought so many of these tee shirts that I lost count, but disappointed that a number of colors have disappeared like maroon, heather, lemon yellow...please bring them back.

I purchased the XXL tall size. I like the material and color and it fits ok but for me, it's not quite long enough to tuck in. It's not as long as other Tall size shirts that I have.

Comfortable and sturdy

Well-made, good value but after repeated washings, the fabric gets a little rougher rather than softer. After the first few washings I would have given this five stars for it retaining its shape and good fit. However after numerous washes the fabric becomes a bit on The scratchy side. Also on the plus side the fabric is of good weight and substantial I'm just afraid that with a few more washings it's not going to be comfortable at all.

Comfortable and a True to size fit for me.

LL Beans carefree t shirt wears great looks good out of washer, and is comfortable. The shirt runs a little large. The color isn't as show, a bit darker. I wanted a lighter blue for my husband. A great value that will last along time.

I really like the tee's and the size in 2xl tall are a good fit for me. However, after washing in cold water and drying they did shrink up. The shrinkage was most noticeable in the length and around the stomach.

Shirt fit quite well. I ordered the tall size because I get tired of tee shirts shrinking up plus I have a long torso. Don't have to worry about the shirt creeping up out of my pants in the back now. I hoped the fabric would be a little heavier in weight for the cost of the shirt.

I was a bit dismayed to see they were made in Vietnam, not in the USA. Why is that?

Purposefully bought this brand because it said "unshrinkable" -- as all of my husband's other t-shirts have failed to stay true to size after washings. This started off as a bit too large but has shrunk oh-so-slightly to provide a relaxed yet comfortable fit. The feel of the cotton is superb. It is pricey but given how hard it is to find the right fit that doesn't shrink, it is worth it.

I purchased this on behalf of my elderly mother as a gift to her son. He was pleased to receive it and she was happy to get him what she thought he would wear over and over ...under his scrubs daily. However, $30 for one t-shirt including delivery that took 2 weeks to receive, is in my mind highway robbery from a 90 yr old woman with few resources. On the other hand, despite her being stressed over the late date delivered, she was pleased w color and quality of product.

The original care free t-shirts were the best. This latest rendition is still a great shirt but is not breathable material. Holds in sweat like crazy. I think it has to do with the "soft" coating applied to the shirt in production. That is my only complaint.

I love these T-Shirts so much I bought several for my 11 year old son. He is still growing and a men's small gave him just enough room to grow into. He loves the soft cotton but they are tough enough for a boys use.

I like the look and feel of it, but the "medium" label is misleading; it's too large. That's the problem with so many garments: no standardization.

My husband really likes these Tee's. I order the Tall size so that I can put them in the dryer and they stayed tucked into his jeans. He really likes the pocket feature. The color selection is excellent and they do not fade significantly with washing! So the "BUT" is that the neck line edge always wears down quickly-leaving an open edge with holes in it-long before the rest of the tee is anywhere near worn out. Since he wears these with under flannel or canvas shirts for work, it is frustrating....looks unprofessional with a tattered neckline!!

I have a big problem with the tag placed inside the side of the T-shirt. That is extremely stupid. I have put up with that tag for years. If I find a good shirt without a tag I'm gone. As I get older I guess my skin is more sensitive.

I have written reviews on these shirts before, overall they are great t-shirts and long lasting. I usually get XLT, but this time just went with XL as that is what LL Beans recommendation was, it was too short lenght wise for me. I really wish sizing was right between shirts, the polo's I get here I need to just get XL because I'm swimming in XLT, same with sweatshirts. But with these T-shirts I know next time to buy XLT.
