Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Pima Cotton Shaped Jewelneck Tee 3/4 Sleeve

Loved this shirt but it shrunk after 1st drying so sleeves to short

Unfortunately, more stretchy and clingy than I like.

Very disappointed. Fabric is lighter and stretchier than it has been on earlier purchases of this shirt. I can tell which this one is in a pile of others I own even with my eyes closed. It feels different, and cheap, when I put it on. This is not the quality Bean pima cotton I have found worth paying for in the past. Bean, if you can un-do this change, please do.

Fabric is much thinner than in past years, so it doesn't retain its shape and wrinkles easily.

Meh. It's well made, true to size, but not very flattering.

The small fit me perfectly except the arms were too tight. I really tried to convince myself it would work but sent it back

The color is beautiful. More of a cerise than a magenta

I gave this 3 stars because the quality is excellent and taller women may find the shirt fits them. But I am 5 feet tall and the Petite long fits on top but goes way down to the top of my legs in a sausage fit. Length of a tunic but tight. I am frustrated by the sizing of LLBean tees in the past couple of years. I used to be a P Med in every style, but no longer. I do wish they could get consistency in sizes because the company is my very favorite and all their clothing lasts forever!

Just not right for me. Material was too lightweight and the fit wasn't good.

I have bought many llbean tees. Previously I bought small regular. However, since these were becoming too tight in the chest I decided on medium petite. I can't decide what is it but even though the chest fits a little better the tee is not attractive. Can't pinpoint why.

Love the fabric and style except it's too long. Makes me look frumpy. Will be returning.

Great color and fabric but not fitted in the least. Looks boxy. Not flattering in the least. Am 5'3 and 125 lbs.

I have ordered many LLB pima cotton shirts over the years and was happy with the styling, fit, and fabric. That was then. As with so many products now, it seems LLB has cheapened the quality to keep a certain price point. This shirt was flimsy and slick feeling instead of the nice heavier weight fabric I have in my closet from prior years. The fit was clingy and did not drape well. The green color was unattractive. I returned it.

I hadn't quite realized that the surface of this shirt would be smooth/shiny. Dismayed. I actually like a more...roughmatte surface. Shiny brings out all one's lumps and bumps, at least for me.

I was thrilled to get 5 100% cotton tops that fit well and looked great. And then I washed them using the exact instructions except removed them 3 minutes early from the dryer. I was heartsick to see that they had shrunk so badly.

This top is cut too narrowly for a size 3X . The shoulders are good, body too narrow and it will not survive the washer and dryer. BTW, I have recently been purchasing size 2x, but ordered the larger size because i like my clothes looser in the summer. There is no consistency in your sizing.

I love the 3/4 sleeves. I walked through a cold storage warehouse and the sleeves keep warm enough during the walk through and cool enough in the summer. However I have always loved the prima cotton and is only what I buy. They wash great they are a little silkier than the regular cotton, but now in my last two orders the prima cotton material has changed and seems more knit like than the tighter silkier weave of the prima I've purchased in the past and the quality is definitely not as good. The seam on the bottom of my sleeves looks like it's sewed on the outside of the sleeve instead of under so you wouldn't be able to see it.

Didn't like the style. Thought it was a little matronly. Colors are getting stale. How about sage green?

I have 5 of these shirts that I bought in the last few years. This one is bigger overall, despite being the same size. The length is a few inches longer as are the sleeves. The overall fit is larger as well. I always wash mine in cold water and dry on low so they haven't shrunk. If they had fit the way this new one does when new, I wouldn't have bought them. The shirt also has a strong chemical odor. I will be returning this new one.

The fabric is quite a bit thinner and less plush than the same shirt purchased a couple of years ago. Th e stitching on one sleeve hem came unraveled when I washed it before wearing. But.I love the color (a bit muddier or muted than the website photo) and it fits well. It may have shrunk a bit, but nothing like the L.L.Bean's regular, non-Pima, tees. As bummed as I was about the stitching, I decided it might be a fluke and I just ordered another in navy. Fingers crossed. I would like to add a little plea here for "Unshrinkable Tees" in women's sizes. I see they're offered in a waffle fabric, but I just don't understand why women can't have the same durable fabric as is used in the men's tees.

I wear a size extra small/small normally. This top is made from the most beautiful fabric. I ordered it in a small to make sure that the shoulders were wide enough for me. This always leaves a little room in the body, but I'm OK with that. Unfortunately even in the small, the shoulder to shoulder span was still a little bit too narrow for me. If you are a standard size and don't have an issue with slightly broader shoulders I highly recommend it. (for reference, I am 5'7" tall, 122 pounds)

I should have paid more attention to the discription. I don't like the neck line.

LL Bean 3/4 sleeve t-shirts were an important staple of my wardrobe for decades. Now, though, the fabric is thinner, the neckline seems stretched out and the tail is too long. There goes one more Old Faithful. Sad.

This is a petite. It is supposed to be shorter. This is way too long. The neck was too open. Material was nice.

I've worn LLB Pima shirts for many years, including purchased last month. Always order a large as I like a relaxed fit. However, this shirt is skin tight, including the sleeves! Sad will need to return.
