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

Long time LL Bean customer. I have bought several of these. I washed them in cold water, delicate wash. I dried them on low for three minutes. They shrank up two inches. They looked ridiculous being so short. I returned one because of this, and the replacement shrank as well. I am no longer planning on being an LLBean customer because of all the money I wasted on this tee, and well as on other items that were not satisfactory. It's too bad that I have to pull out an old LLBean tee shirt I bought 15 years ago because at least it did not shrink. Do NOT buy these. Good bye LLBean!

After 4 or 5 washings, these tee shirts have developed runs in the fabric at the shoulder and I am going to return them. I will order new ones and sincerely hope that the new ones remain intact. I have been buying these tee shirts for years and really like them but the fabric has deteriorated. Please report this to the buyers.

I ordered medium as I have a sweater from LL Bean in medium that fits well. The arms, neck, and bust of this shirt fit normal. Then the shirt turns into a tent and I could have been pregnant and this shirt still would have been big in the belly area. This shirt is not at all slightly fitted as described. For reference I am 5' 6" and 150 lbs. Needless to say these shirts were returned and I'm out $6.50 for shipping. I've learned my lesson on LL Bean and inconsistent sizing and will stop ordering from here.

I loved this shirt in Petal from April 2016 and wanted more this summer. Trusting LL Bean, I washed the shirts beforehand, making them un-returnable. They are totally different even though the label is the same. The "crewneck" comes up much higher, uncomfortably so. It looks strange, and I want to tug it down. The 100% pima cotton looks and feels different; lighter, thinner,and somewhat shiny.(?) It doesn't have the nice, "breathes" feeling one associates with pima cotton. The cut is different. I ordered more than one shirt, so this isn't a case a shirt being the one made from the cut at the end of a bolt, and is a bit off. Overall not the same shirt I bought in April 2016. I wish I'd purchased more then. I can't wear these, I can't return them, so I'm giving them away. A waste of money. I just want a reliable tee shirt, and I can't get that anymore from LL Bean, which makes me kind of sad, as I've always loved the company and what they stand for,even though I don't buy much from them, not being outdoorsy. I would still have my duck boots from 1977 if they hadn't been lost in a move.
