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

I've been wearing these t-shirts for years and I love them, and I stock up about this time every year or so. Went to order some today in my size (XXL) and you're out of stock of every color except white! What's up with that LLB? How do you run out of a staple spring/summer item like a basic t-shirt before March is even over? I'll be back to order when you have more in stock, but you should know it's very frustrating.

Fit well and hold up to washing with no noticeable shrinkage

Love the old pocket tee's I've worn for years but harder and harder to find until I discovered these T's from Bean. If you've bought tees only to find that after one wash they shrink, the hem starts to gather and the seams come out crooked, then give these a try. They hold their shape and are true to size even after washing in hot water. The large is a true large so you don't have to "size up" for a good fit.

These shirts are very comfortable and I love the Pocket. They hold up much better than the brand of pocket Tee I have bought in the past.

These T-Shirts are made with high quality fabric and are durable. The pocket is essential for a T-Shirt and makes these T-Shirts most useful.

This shirt is comfortable, plenty of room in the shoulders, looks nice. However, the dye lot is not even throughout the whole shirt.

The shirt looks and feels comfortable. We put it in the wash and I think it may have shrank a little bit. The colors were a little lighter than I had expected but overall I think they're okay. We're going to wash the a little more and see if they can stand some wear.

Love these shirts. Wash well, color stays as well as they do not shrink

Wears and feels very good, keeps color, shape and overall appearance...

I was very satisfied with the quality and it washed and dryed just beautiful, no wrinkles and it felt very soft.

The only con I can offer about this product is that the sizing are at least one full size larger than "typical". Other than that it is one of the best T-shirts i have ever owned.

Have bought a number of these tee-shirts. The black doesn't hold its color super well but for my needs its a good comfortable shirt.

Russet and Deep Red are the same color

Printing the tag inside the collar was a good idea. Now lets print the two on the inside seam down near the hip. They are very uncomfortable and annoying! Otherwise, great shirt.

I bought 3 of these T's in 2008. They were perfect... the best T-shirts I've ever owned. I recently bought a few more. The material now has a different feel to it and it does not absorb perspiration as well. Plus, the neckline is tighter and presses against the front of my throat. I liked the previous T's better. Other customers have mentioned these same sentiments. To L.L.Bean: "Why did you change these T's?"

This t-shirt didn't shrink after several washings. It feels good and fits great.

Good and Not-So-Good. Good - Fit as advertised. Good - Stamped label replaced sewn in label (sewn in label was an irritant). Not-So-Good - I don't like the treated cotton. Not as comfortable as older shirts. I think it doesn't wick as well as the older shirts. But..I guess sort of good was out in a very light drizzle and the water beaded. Good - Treated cotton does not need ironing. Looks good out of the dryer. Can't figure out Bean's colors. I Like the color of this shirt which is "butter." Have shirts in "beeswax" which I think is a just a brighter, harsher (but acceptable) yellow.

I've worn LLbean tee for years - especially like "no label" to scratch ! The only complaint I have with my latest purchase, is that the pattern being used now seems to have raised the front of the neck band, and sometimes "rides up" on my throat.

You should focus on quality above all. This is the 3rd time I've ordered these Tee shirts and was disappointed to see the lighter weight material. I'm taking care of my aging father full time & don't get out to go shopping often. I was delighted to find a sturdy, well constructed shirt that fit him despite being pricy for a Tee. You brought the price down, and the quality.

Nice tee but I wish that LL Bean would consider items made in the USA!

By far the best T-shirts I've ever purchased. Great fit and feel, color selection, and color-fast qualities. These Tees are 5-star in every way except, at least fosr me, a slight front of the neck roll-over.

I purchased three of these Tee shirts and promptly put them in the wash. Not only did they not shrink, the colors did not fade either! I gave them 4 of 5 stars because I have not had them long enough to see how well they wear.

This is a soft, comfortable tee with ample pocket for sunglasses, cell phone. But the neck opening is slightly too small, giving this reviewer an uncomfortable tightness at the neck. I have L.L.Bean Tees from previous years and never encountered this before. The fabric, color, pocket, overall weight would make this another Great L.L. Bean Tee Shirt if were not for the neck opening. I still would highly recommend to anyone not concerned with neck opening size...

I've purchased many of these T-shirts from L.L. Bean over the years and have always been pleased with their non-shrinking, non-fading, easy washing, great fit and lasting quality. However, with the last few I've gotten, the collars are wearing out very quickly, fraying and coming apart after just a few washings. The collars seem to be made of a totally different and definitely not as durable material than the rest of the shirt.

Good quality...well made...lighter weight than expected.
