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

Save your money. Not worth the $22 for a tee with Mack that's wavier than cooked bacon

Was somewhat disappointed with quality. After first wash shirt collar began to loose its shape and become warped. Expected better from the Bean name.

Not the best looking tee shirts. Functional, but the fit is pretty loose and unattractive. My wife really doesn't like them on me.

I've been wearing LLBean T shirts for many years now. This current batch is not up to their normal standards. Out of four shirts, one is unraveling along the bottom seam and two are an inch or more too short in length.

Fits like a tent. Not fitted at all. Soft, but bulky. Either order a size smaller, or don't order at all.

I like the quality and the colors, but I am disappointed by the fit. I ordered size M in three different colors. One shirt fits great, but the other two colors are too small. The different colors don't fit the same way, which makes it almost impossible to order the correct size. That is really unfortunate.

Too thick and too wide. Good if you're looking for a heavyweight t-shirt.

Overpriced cheap tee shirt, used a $25 gift card. Cheapest item on the website.

I have a big chest. This T fit great in chest and shoulders but looked like a tent around my waist.

Great shirts, terrible collars. They curl and bunch in the front even with careful laundering. I have six of these that have all done the same thing. At this price this should not be an issue. None of my off brand cheap Tee's have done this. Very disappointing!

Fabric is not as soft and comfortable as it used to be. Also collar stretches out easily and has that "bacon" look. No question that overall quality has suffered on this t-shirt.

Bought as undershirts, but the color was more ivory than white. We wanted a bright white shirt. We had to return- very disappointing

They're massively oversized shirts. Fits like an xl and is a medium.

Heavier than normal, shrinks greatly when washed and dried

I have noticed that the collar becomes wavy and doesn't lay flat long before the shirt gets worn out. I don't think this used to happen in previous shirts.

Good quality tee, but too expensive and LL Bean has taken away the great guaranty they once had. I think they are going woke!

I like the color and original fit. It did shrink some after two washings/dryings. It did not feel comfortable in hot weather. In fact, it was akin to wearing a plastic bag, as far as absorption goes. It is supposed to be 100% cotton but feels more like a 50/50 or even a 60/40 polyester/cotton blend. It may have a stain repellent coating that, in my case, saturated the entire fabric. If you only expect to hang out in cool weather and not perspire, this should fit your needs.

The things I don't like are: The sleeves are too short and are not really "fitted"; I also don't like to stuff/chemical they put on the fabric, which is probably for stain resistance. It gives the shirt a texture I don't like.

fabric good quality. Fit is too high and tight around neck. My hubby likes loose at neckline. Hates turtlenecks too.

Love to wear these,feel so good on, however they are not stain resistant more like resistant to removing stains. I can get tomato sauce out of white cotton shirts but not from my blue Beans tee. Will not buy again, my very first problem with a Beans product in 50 yrs.

This is the hottest cotton t-shirt I have ever worn (and I am a senior citizen so have owned plenty). The shirt doesn't breath and retains heat and sweat until you are very uncomfortable. They are treated with something to make them stain resistant; when out in a light rain, the shirt doesn't get wet - water just beads up on it. On a humid, hot day I cannot wear this shirt. I own 3 and all are the same. However, the fabric is soft, doesn't shrink and fits well. I am disappointed that I can't wear them more - they are great in 75 degrees and low humidity or indoors in an air conditioned room. Therefore, I cannot recommend.

I cannot overstate how comically this shirt fits. The sleeves and waist are massive -- meant for a 250-pound person. It goes halfway down my thighs. The fabric is amazing, so I want to like it, but a size L fits me (6-1, 190) like a dress -- and that after trying to shrink it in the laundry... Not sure what is going on at LL Bean, because I have work a size L here and everywhere else for the past 30 years, but the current sizing (based on this and other shirts) is way off.

I only buy Tees with pockets. They're convenient for carrying cell phones or sunglasses. These Tees that I bought most recently have pockets that are too shallow. It took me a while to figure out the problem after bending over and dumping my cell phone on the ground a few times (and another time, sun glasses). I pulled out some old Tees from other brands that I used successfully without losing things. So it was the depth of the pocket. I recommend consumers buy the LL Bean Tee without pockets. The Tee is otherwise a superior garment. The fabric, fit and cut are all what we expect from LLBean...superior.

The fit and material is great. The collar has become "scalloped" so it has become useless for the reason purchased (to wear to work under scrubs).

I have been buying these t-shirts for years. Always came out of the wash and dryer wrinkle free. These last t's I bought are terrible for wrinkles. Had to be ironed to make presentable. Something changed. Also they fit a little more snug than earlier purhases. Neck a little tighter.
