Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Pima Crew Neck Short Sleeve

Quality of construction/fabric is very nice. However the neckline was a bit tight on me and I returned the item.

I bought 4 of these shirts and washed them on normal. They shrank up about 2" in length. I bought them to wear out in public but they turned into PJ shirts so my stomach isn't showing in public.

For many years, I have worn either a short or long sleeve Pima cotton tee shirt every day of the year. The quality and softness of this cotton cannot be equaled. HOWEVER, the short sleeves should be slightly lengthened for better comfort and appearance, and the shirts should cover the hips. At present the shirts are not long enough to cover my hips. I need to wear a longer length jacket to cover my hips which are a bit wider than the rest of me.

Always look for these dependable throw on Pima Cotton Tee's! This year they were a little too long,not at the waist. The neck is an odd shape compared to others I have purchased, which were more flattering. Cotton was perfect as always.

Fits well, like the yellow color, good quality material.

I wear a large but ordered an xlg. These shirts always shrink even in cold water and low heat. The xlg fits just right.

Since this is worn in the summer a slightly loser fit and shorter length would make it perfect. I have been buying this shirt for years and it is now longer.

Great fabric and fit. My only reservation is the shoulder seam on the neck band.

These shirts shrink a full size if you put in the dryer. I buy smalls then shrink them slightly. They also don't hold up to washes as well as in the past, won't last as many seasons I think, but a good basic shirt.

These are great shirts! My only complaint is that the short sleeve version does not come in a "tall" size as the long sleeve does. These shirts shrink over time so that my older ones are a full inch shorter than my new ones. It would be great for those of us who want and need a slightly longer length if you could make the short sleeve shirts in a "tall" version!!

I have worn these Tees for years. After some slight shrinkage, they perform great, holding their color and not stretching out over time.

The Pima cotton is smooth and comfortable; the fit is good. The seams and collar are rough against the skin.

Very nice shirt. I gave it four stars because it is thinner than my previous purchase from several years ago.

Very nice tee shirt, wish it was just a bit longer. Fabric is nice and soft, and launders well. A few more colors would be good, too.

I'm disappointed with the shrinkage in this shirt. I washed on cool, dried on low and it's over an inch shorter now. The photos show one I haven't washed yet and the front one is the one I washed. They are hanging evenly. I like a longer shirt. Can you make this one longer so when it does shrink, it's a better length? I'm not sure I want to keep the other one, and it's too had because the fabric quality is great. I'm indicating that the fit is good, except for the after-washing length.

The fit is great. Really soft and comfortable. I just wish the sleeves were about an inch or inch and a half longer.

very nice smooth finish to the materiel, It's a boxy cut I'd say. If you are busty but an x-small in other shirts I would not order a XS in this shirt.

Nice quality but a little short for my liking in the petite

I was looking for some good basic tees for my spring wardrobe- I tried this one and the similar type v-neck style. For some reason, this crewneck one just didn't fit me as well. Felt just a little shorter and snugger. Returned this one and kept the v-neck. Still felt like a great tee, so depending on your body type I could see it working well for other people.

I bought these tee's during the winter, and layered them satisfactorily with clothing to my liking. I did size up one for shrinkage and because I'm bosomy. In addition, I found the sizing to be slightly inconsistent with all 3 tees, especially around the neck. However, I have never thought of returning them because I mostly like them, even though they're fabric heavy for the hot and humid summer months. Some shrinkage was noted after washing, but in a good way......less boxy.

I would like the sleeves to be an inch or two longer.

Love the fit although the length could be longer. Beautifully soft.

This was nice but color too sharp, I'd prefer a pastel/ light shade

Needed a t-shirt to compliment my Comfort Corduroy Relaxed Shirt Long Sleeve Women's from Bean. Pima cotton is so soft. Shirt perfect. As with all clothing made of 100% cotton I always buy the next size up in case it is left in the dryer too long.

I love the colors but the arm's are to fitted. Can I get brown ?
