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

XL fit was perfect, color and fabric great. I don't like the huge scratchy label in the side seam.

I've been buying and wearing these shirts for years in both the short and long sleeved versions. Fabric is lovely they hold their color and shape better than any I've found. My only complaint is that, like every other vendor cut and sizing changes. I purchased several in 2019 and again this year. The new shirts are narrower, more fitted and longer than the shirts purchased in 2019. Those changes might be welcomed by some but not by me. I buy the petite medium and I have not changed in weight or height. It's not okay for merchant's to change an items without disclosing those changes.

The fabric is off the charts terrific as is the fit. The styling around the neck isn't to my taste though so I decided against. I do have a few of these over the years and they wash and wear extremely well.

I have been wearing the Bean Pima Cotton Tees, both long- and short- sleeved crewnecks for several years. They wash and wear beautifully and last long. My kids laugh when they see how many I actually have in my drawers. However, I wish they would come in more colors, including brown tones--beige, dark brown, cream. I always go to the black and white because the other colors are either too muted or too bright. PLEASE begin to make these in brown tones.

I freq purchase these Pima tees. Material is nice but they all shrink some no matter how careful you are with the care of the top. It still fits. I am 5'1, 132 lbs and purchase lg petite

The fabric is very soft & the color I purchased is beautiful. I gave the crew neck four stars because I'm very disappointed it is short in length.

It would be better with quantity to be 1 and pick the colors you want.

I am 5 foot 6 inches tall, 135 pounds. I wear a medium. It fit well all over. This is well made with a nice smooth neckline. Now the problem: it's too short and it shrunk. Description states that is falls at hip. It was about halfway between high hip and hip. After I washed it in COLD water and LOW heat, as directed, it then fell at high hip. I can't wear that. It's hard to find nice cotton in a well-made T-shirt, so I'm very disappointed. If you are short, it may work for you. I had to indicate whether this was too small or too large. It is not too small, only too short.

I just hope it does not shrink when I put it in the dryer. I put it on the clothes line now for summer. Sometime your shirts shrink and some do not I have no idea which one.

Just a tad long for petite....or else I am shrinking. Lighter weight than expected but nice. Washed well first round. Thank you LLB for timely shipping and good packaging.

I love Pima cotton and these tees have such a soft, silky feel to them. The issue is the length, so I always size up. That makes the tee a little boxy but I'll take that over too short in the torso. I wish LL Bean would make all their lady's tee shirts in Tall sizes, like they do for men. Anyway, that does not stop me from buying all the pretty colors. I do launder these carefully, cold gentle wash, and they hang to dry.

Would like the shirt better if it was a little longer.

I have worn LL Bean t-shirts for years. Please bring back the kelly green back mine is too old to wear anymore.

La tela de de muy buena calidad y se siente muy fresca

I love this tee but it's too short. How about a tall size or fall below the hip?

I have the crew neck in almost every color. I like the closer fitting neck for sun protection and that the short sleeves aren't overly short. I baby them by washing in cold water, putting in the dryer for only 5 minutes to shake out the wrinkles, and then hang dry. I like to layer them and keep them tucked in. I am not tall, 5'5", but I would love a tall version so the shirt would stay tucked in!

Quality tee with a smooth feel. Had to exchange for a larger size than I've purchased in the past.

Although the material of this tee is not my favorite, it fits well and is made to last. I ordered because I was looking for this color.

Very high quality construction and materials. Could use a little more length.

Very soft, just wish it was a little longer. Need to offer this in a tall.

Little bit tight but still wearable. wear it often

I bought three of these Pima tees in June. The lavender and the dark green seemed to be the right length. However, the raw indigo seemed a bit short so I measured all three from the back of the neck to bottom of the hem. Sure enough, the indigo tee was 1" to 1"1/2" shorter than the lavender and green! The lavender was the longest at 25-1/2" and the green was at 25"! I was disappointed as I prefer my tees to be at least 25" long and when all three have different lengths, well... I didn't return it as it would have cost the shipping charge so I'm keeping it. Next time I will call LL Bean and ask them what the length is before I order. I just wish they would state this on their descriptions. Not everyone's "hip length" is the same. Or "falls at hip" - too vague

The color and fabric are very nice. Only 4 stars because all the tees I've bought lately from LLBean shrink up lengthwise no matter how carefully I wash them. All my tunics are now hip length and I can tell that this top will eventually be too short to give good coverage. I guess I keep hoping the company will return to using fabrics like they used to, that didn't shrink even after years of wear.

Nice quality tee but 1 of them was at least 2 inches shorter than the other one. The rich turquoise was too short while the beach glass was better. Still a bit short but I'll wear it -- loved the color. The v necks were perfect. Will just return the turquoise

Nice top but if getting a petite I'd go up a size. I ordered a petite medium and had to return and reorder for a petite large. It fits nicely. I would order again. Also LL Bean was fantastic and quick about my exchange!
