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

Have worn these t's for many years, every couple of years I reorder, this year's order my xl tall sleeves are a good 2 to 3 inches shorter than in the past, have to assume the factory just used the wrong pattern, it seems others have found the same issue with the sleeves. Bean should look into this issue ... go measure the sleeves.

I have been buying these shirts for years and always admired the fact that you could wash and dry them and they didn't not shrink. The last two I have bought fit nicely before washing and did not fit after washing. Over length shrunk by about an inch and the sleeves shrunk and became more snug fitting.

Not unshrinkable. The sleeves shrunk on mine on second wash, and I will have to return. It's too bad because otherwise it's an extremely comfortable shirt, soft cotton.

I purchased two XL Men's "Tall" Unshrinkable Long Sleeve Tee w/o Pocket, one black and one white. When my husband tried them on, the sleeves were about 2-3" too short! We've been buying these long sleeve tees for over 2 decades and this has never been the case. And, it wasn't just one, both of the tees, the sleeves were around too short. Would NOT recommend these shirts for Tall men.

I purchased 2 of the unshrinkable t-shirts and they both shrunk, when I tried them on before washing and drying they fit well, after 1 cycle they did not fit well at all. They did shrink. Howard

The shirt feels like it's on backwards and the tall sleeves shrink.

I ordered an XXL and that's what the label on the shirt said. However it fit more like a Large to XL. After 1 wash (cold wash)it definitely shrunk to fit like a large. I've never had that happen before as I've worn these shirts for several years.

Fit was great until we washed them and the sleeves shrunk to above the wrist. I'm returning them.

I have owned these shirts in the past, really liked them and decided to get some more. I wear tall sizes and the tall version is not as long as it was in the past. The sleeves are to short.

I"m 6'4" and 180 lbs. I purchased 3 different colors - yellow, purple, and black - all LT. The yellow and purple were sized the same. The black was significantly smaller. Sleeve lengths in all three were not as long as I would expect from tall sizing. XLT would be too baggy for me. I would not purchase again.

Ordered size large. Have worn that size for years. This shirt was huge, twice the width I needed and much wider than older shirts I own.

First time ordering 3 of these and they were all returned. Size large fit my husband's neck and shoulders but there was too much fabric around the chest area and waist. Wasn't a good look and didn't shrink after washing.

They were too big to call them a medium. Sorry I had to give both of them away.

Horrible sizing!!! These Tee shirts were made for a man 6 feet 5 inches tall and weighing 250 pounds. I am 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing 195 pounds. Bean needs to re-think how they describe their products, especially these Tee shirts. Furthermore, they charge $7 to return the items. Never again will I order from this company!!

I found that the neck was too tight. It would be best if the neck opening was larger

Your mediums shirts are no longer mediums. . .they are large. Very disappointed.

Sleeves too Short and too tight at wrists, Neck stretches' out too easily

First time I washed and dried it the collar curdled.

These shirts are a poor shadow of their predecessors, which were made of heavier, harder-wearing material and much better made, especially around the bottom hem and sleeve cuffs. I have 20-year old versions of this shirt I would much rather wear than these newer, cheaply made versions. L.L. Bean used to be renowned for product quality, but no more. It has succumbed to sacrificing quality for the bottom line, and now the company's goods are no better than any other online vendor. But I would pay more for better. I'll bet others would too. I bought these shirts because Bean offers tall sizes. But when I find another company that also offers them, I'll probably never buy another.

Tall, large. Sleeves too short. Hit and miss with tall, large items.

Did not like the fit. The sizing was misleading! I washed the shirts and the fit was still not good.

Old LL Bean tee's had great quality. After one wash, this tee puckers by the collar.

These long sleeve shirts were great until the recent order. The forearms on both shirts are now much narrower. Very Strange looking. LL Bean, please change these back. These are not recommended.

I purchased 4 of these shirts in November 2020 and at the end of January 2021, after wearing around the house, the seams are splitting on the arms and wrists. Unfortunate because I really like the cut and fit, but the quality is just poor on the stitching.

Aside from the obvious size is way too large, literally order a size down. In addition, the length and fit is just big even in the right size (I ordered a Large and a Med). WORSE ..... is the quality of the material. It has no body, is very silky, and hangs like a wet plastic bag. This creates a very frumpy look unless you wear it skin tight. The material feels thin, honestly this feels like wholesale club quality. NOT what I expected from LL Bean at all. All in all, I will NOT be exchanging this, it will be a straight return to find another product.
