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

Light Mahogany Tee shirt is actually orange. I would not have purchased.

I have a 44" chest. These large-size Tshirts were supposed to fit 42-44. Way too BIG

Ordered Large Long following sizing chart for my height. At 6'2" this was mid thigh for me, way too long. I returned the shirt and selected an exchange for a Large Regular which was processed on 1-17. I'm being sent a gift card instead which is yet to arrive 2 weeks later.

This is a nice classic heavy t shirt whose sleeve and body length is closer to a Tall size than Regular size. I liked the relaxed fit but felt like I was wearing a night shirt or shroud instead of a t-shirt.

These are NOT unshrinkable! Just bought new one and compared to last years. Lost at least an inch in length!

Nice material but the fit was wrong, the upper arm area looked ready for a body builder.

I have 7 of these long sleeve T-shirts. This new shirt is mis-sized - fits like a large not medium. The fabric is lighter weight and a inferior grade. I have been in the the garment industry for 40 years (now retired) Your merchandising team apparently changed suppliers to seek a lower price. It was a mistake and will result in lost sales.

Not heavy enough to wear without layers and not light enough to wear without. The breast pocket was nice but unnecessary and not functional. It missed the mark as a sweatshirt.

I've been buying Bean clothing, including long sleeve T-Shirts for years and years. Fit was fine. But this item is ill-fitting. The sleeves are voluminous -- poofy (like in the Seinfeld episode), and it appears the shoulders are too roomy as well. (I fall well within the Medium, Regular size. 40 inch chest.)

I've been buying these for years and have a bunch of them. Last order I got three different colors. The material in the black shirt seems thinner/cheaper than normal. Hoping this is a fluke and not a trend.

Returned. I tried one of these because they stopped carrying the slightly fitted ones, which are my favorites. This fit like a tent. Shoulders were a slim fit, not to roomy, and then I could have fit two of me in the bottom. Flares out like a tent (almost like a woman's shirt), makes me look 20 pounds heavier and pear shaped. Also didn't care for the hemming at the wrists, pretty tight, which gave the sleeves an extra puffy look. Not a good fit at all. If you are bigger around the middle than at the shoulders, this is probably a great fit. The material is nice, comfy and soft, but I couldn't get past the fit. If they don't bring back the slightly fitted tees, I'll have to look elsewhere.

I thought this would be a good casual long-sleeve Tee, but the fit is a little off. The bottom of the arm holes are about halfway down the body of the shirt which then movement when worn is awkward at best and not very comfortable.

Doesn't hold it's shape! Difficult to put on and take off

Purchased these carefree tees in the past. They were always so soft, not this time. Very rough feeling, seems fabric has changed. Disappointing

I ordered the size I would normally order for a regular short sleeve t-shirt. I was way too large.

I have been purchasing these (with pockets) for a number of years. But last couple purchases I note that the quality has taken a downturn and the color offerings are, at best, bland, at this point. Note also, LL Bean, the wrist band should not be the same diameter as the shirt - that defeats the purpose of it. Another suggestion about the wrist band: make the shirts so that the wrist band actually remains attached to the shirt. These are a couple of quality issues that I am noting

Bought a few of theses two years ago and needed to replace. These are thinner by half and longer by 4 inches. I am 6'1" and bought an XL, thought about the tall size but if I did I could probably wear it as a dress. C'mon Bean, get back to what you were. Vietnam - Bangladesh - make something here in the USA so the quality can be better. I bought four tops in XL and the sleeve length varied for 34 in. to 37 in.. Do better Bean.

Actually purchased 2 of the long sleeve tees at the LL Bean outlet in Concord NH. The first shirt was perfect so the 2 star review is only for tee #2. The shirt was marked as an irregular and after inspecting the shirt I couldn't see anything obviously wrong. However, when I tried the shirt on at home it was much tighter than I expected and not comfortable. I'm wondering if the irregular designation came from the inconsistent sizing of the shirt. I bought two other tees that day (1 long sleeve, 1 short) and both fit exactly as I expected and consistent with all of my other LL Bean tees. I wish I could bring it back for an exchange but I had already removed the tags and laundered it before I tried it on. If sizing is one of the criteria for an "irregular" designation then I will be a lot more careful to avoid any irregular product in the future.

Wasn't what I expected, just a little to heavy otherwise it was ok.

I have always worn size medium in Bean's long-sleeve t-shirts. I bought this shirt in medium and the sleeves were 2" too long. I returned it and exchanged it for a small but the sleeves were still too long! Sadly this will have to go to Goodwill and I will end my 40 year association with Bean since their sizes have become unpredictable.

I have bought these shirts in this size numerous times in the past but these are incredibly oversized. In this case I would root for some shrinkage!

Comfortable,good fit but after a few washes the collar loses its shape

Spent a little extra money on this shirt as the collar on similar shirts from other stores would wrinkle up like bacon after a few washes. Same thing happened with this shirt. After just a few washes on delicate/low heat dry, collar is wrinkled. Unfortunately I usually wear it under other shirts so the collar is the only thing that shows. Sleeves also seem kind of big around bicep/chest area so unless you have massive guns, this shirt may feel a little baggy.

The shirt is way too large for my trim husband. It is way too wide and loose on him.

I bought this long sleeve tee in grey and blue and loved them, so I decided to order one in green. The second time wearing the green shirt I accidentally dribbled some sauce on it while eating a burger. When I got home I sprayed a little Shout stain remover on it then tossed it in to wash. When it came out it had a noticeable color fade on the chest, so much so that I can't wear it out of the house. I've used the same Shout on other items without incident so clearly the fade is the result of the poor color quality of the shirt fabric. I'm very disappointed since I love this t-shirt in other colors.
