Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Carefree Unshrinkable Tee with Pocket Short Sleeve

This is a solid weight tee shirt and seems well-made. If it fit well, it'd make a great work tee shirt. However, the fit is odd - it's very boxy. I ordered this and one of the stretch pima cotton tees for my husband, both in size large. The pima tee fit beautifully and looks very nice. This tee in a large was much too small through the chest. I then re-ordered it in an XL and it was much too large around the torso. Very unflattering.

Necklines stretch more quickly than ever. Curl at hems on bottom and sleeves. Not what I expect from LL Bean. Cheaper quality but same more expensive pricing. Shame shame.

I ordered 3 tee shirts. 2 black and 1 gray (to get free shipping). Only the gray one was delivered which was the least desired.

Shirt is a great tee shirt except for the collar. The last couple of shirts I have purchased get "bacon neck" after a few washings. Quality control of that material is lacking!

The shirt looks nice, good fabric, but cut really large.

I ordered 3 of these tee shirts in different colors. The gray one was returned because it unraveled after the first wash. The other 2 have been fine.

Nice shirt but it does not breathe. Like a sweat suit

I use to buy these" all the time, but the last few purchases they keep changing the length of the T-shirt. I have some older ones at 24-26" which was perfect for me and now the new ones are 29-30". And I purchased Regular and NOT Tall. Please bring back the shorter lengths. Thank you!

Too bad that the sleeve is cut so short especially under the arm. Even the tall is too short and pulls under the arms. I wish LL Bean would make a fuller longer short sleeve under traditional fit rather than modern fit. These used to be my favorite tshirts. Sad

The Delta blue & the Lakewashed green has significant fading in underarm area. All others are fine.

The Ocean Blue color of this shirt is not even close to the catalog photo!!! Very dissapointing.....but the shirt is a nice fit and still has a quality material. Just don't work out in this shirt....it holds in the moisture and doesn't breathe at all. This is the second failure for LL Bean on their tee shirts with respect to the misleading color in the catalog or on line ad.

2of the 3 fit ok, one was at least a size smaller but marked at the 2x I ordered, and its just not worth the hassle to return 1 tee shirt

Ok except for the too tight neck. The material seems good but sweaty

I've been buying these t-shirts for about 20 years. Sadly, quality has diminished over the past decade. The material is coarser, and multiple washings doesn't help. I wear a large, and I'm not overweight. These days, their fit is more A-line, to accommodate American men's ever-growing girth, I assume. I've also tried Medium size, but those were too tight. At the moment, I keep buying them because it's hard to find solid tees that are 100% cotton. An alternate non-Bean choice: Comfort Colors brand, though the collar and tag are iffy. Lately, I've noticed many product reviews that lament what has happened to Bean-wear, What a shame that LL Bean has cut corners like this, without much quality control and without heeding the many complaints (or so it seems)

Color and feel are great but fit is much bigger than advertised. The large size I usually order was the the size of a tent. Order a smaller size than you normally do for this shirt. I am 5'10" and 190 lbs.

I wear these T-shirts exclusively. Perfet fit every time. Only complaint is that after a while the collar gets stretched and also they are not stain free.

The colors and the fabric on these shirts are nice I just wish the talls were a bit longer. I ended up giving these to my mom they fit her good a bit loose on her but she likes them.

I've found this time the crew neck seems particularly high and tighter than usual. Not totally pleasant at times.

I bought this before and really liked it. Good quality and good fit. But I bought the same size again and the shirts are way too large. I am 5'10" and 150 lbs. I bought Medium Regular. This new purchase looked like a dress on me, came down to my crotch. I compared to the ones I bought last year and these are 2 or 3 inches longer. These were clearly marked Regular not Tall. Now I have to pay $6.50 return fee because LLBean can't properly manage their sizes.

I have been buying from LL Bean for a long time. This is the first time I've had a complaint about the quality of the product delivered. While these were great Tees and I'm sure they used to be white but they have been sitting somewhere until they yellowed! Each of the 3 white tees is a different shade of yellow. Terrible quality control.

Well made T-shirt. I will not purchase again because the shirt does not absorb moisture. Sweat runs down my torso. The shirt is treated with something probably to make it softer. I bought an all cotton shirt to be comfortable, this not comfortable in warm weather

Sizing seems inconsistent, the size I ordered is larger than the normal sizing!

I normally take a size large, but over the years I've learned to order a medium long from LL Bean for my flannel shirts. I ordered a medium long t-shirt and it almost comes down to my knees. Quality is definitely there, but trial and error on sizes.

I' am in need of a few new T-shirts, however can I get them with the 15% off being a long time LLBEAN Card holder? Why cannot long time card holders get an additional 15% off? Screwing over long time customers!

Been buying these shirts for a very long time to the point some of the ones I have still have tags on the neck rather then printed into fabric. Unfortunately after you've gone through about 1/2 dozen washes the collars start showing bacon collar...meanwhile the old LL bean t-shirts with the tags hardly show any bacon collar. Considering these T-shirts are not really cheap, the latter shouldn't be happening as I would expect better quality. Also need more neutral colors, oatmeal color that was offered several years ago was great to wear in the summer and a better yellow is needed for summer.
