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

I've been buying LL Bram Tee shirts for years but these recent ones feel warm to wear in summer. I now notice they don't mention "100% cotton" like on previous orders and I suspect they are synthetic. I'm checking on the 4 tees I ordered and the description does say cotton but the tee shirts themselves have no mention of it - all previous orders do say 100% cotton. I'm reluctant to buy any more tee shirts until I can be sure of what I am getting. DEFINITELY not the same product I have been buying over the years.

the wrinkles are unacceptable. Washed & dried oon delicate cycle.

Weirdly, my husband said this was "too soft." When pressed, he said the fabric was too stretchy and lightweight. I think I understand -- the fabric is not hefty or thick. It's more like undershirt material. We returned this tee.

Shirt contains polyester. It says 100 %cotton. I'm allergic to polyester and it caused a lot of problems.

Thought I was getting the same quality men's teeshirts I purchased two years ago, plain cotton. What arrived today is that cheap stretchy fabric. This item has gone down hill. Returning it immediately.

Rough material. Unflattering fit on me. Sent it back.

I have ordered XXL Tees in the past and hey fit very well. This order was for XXL Tees and they are more like 3X or 4X size inconsistent sizes... from manufacturer and poor-quality control by L.L.Bean

Ordered this Tee shirt in a small size and it was too big and I had to return it

usually wear large but this one is ridiculously large. It is going to trash. Unfortunately, I will avoid this brand and stick with other my goto brands.

I have to iron them - they grab wrinkles and just hold on. they look sloppy and I will never order them again. it is clearly a new fabric you are using, since I have ordered these for years. (or ones without a pocket)

fit is to baggie sleeves to big (large is my size) all my other jersey fit much better i will not be buying any more from ll bean sorry.

Washed this t shirt when it first arrived, wore once and washed today for only second time. Already the stitching is coming out in the sleeves. Super comfy shirt, absolutely terrible quality given the price.

I'm looking for a new everyday tee. Ordered 10 or so of these over a few weeks. They were great at first. Six months later and every one of them has bacon neck. Guess I'm moving in to the next candidate.

This shirt has way too much resin or shrinkage stabilizer and consequently, does not absorb sweat. It does not wick sweat away. It blocks the sweat leaving it to run Dow the inside of the shirt and my upper torso like an old style polyester knit. It is 100% cotton and performs like polyester. I have bought quite a few of these shirts over the years and I don't recall them being sweat blockers before. This shirt is not suitable for hot weather.

I've bought these T-shirts for years. Just ordered 3 and very disappointed. Extremely thin material and way too large.

Sizes are why off. I've worn large in all other brand tee shirts for years and these fit like a dress, almost to my knees. Also sent me a small?

Don't like the new fabric of these shirts. No the same as the old one.

used to love these t shirts, they changed the material and the length, no longer fits, returned them all

Sizes are way too off, and L.L.Bean's Medium (M) size more like L or XL. And their "Tall" size option actually means "Wide." I bought a Medium size t-shirt and it looked like a very loose sack on me, while other brands fit well. I had to return the item.

Have been buying these shirts for years but the two I bought now are not the same quality

These shirts, short and long sleeve, were awesome until 2 years ago. Every one i purchased since gets bacon neck after 1 washing. Can't wear that again, look and feel like a slob. Based on other comments i see many jave had this problem. Instead of telling everyone they can return the shirts, wby don't you fix the problem and go back to the old shirt maker? You literally have lost many hundreds of dollars from me since this started and about to become morenof loss. You already charge way more than anyone for everything which is fine when the quality was way better. Now your quality is no better, maybe worse, and your prices are higher yet. You are gonna loose thousands a year from me because i can't trust your quality foe me or for gifts i buy. Stoo skirting the obvious issue and fix the problem.

I have LL Bean shirts of the same size and style and I liked the fit. These new ones were so big and baggy around the waist they looked sloppy. I tried washing but that did not help so I gave them away. Would not recommend unless you like wearing something that looks like a tent.

I really wanted to like this shirt, but I was disappointed. The sleeve opening is so big I could probably put my leg through it.

Material is all cotton, but it was some kind of itchy all cotton. I bought these a few years ago and they were great, but they apparently are getting them from a different manufacturer now.

I purchased (6) Tall/Large various colors and found them to be poor fitting, very baggy with no form. I purchased the cotton/poly blend previously. Those were higher quality and fit much better.
