Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Soft Stretch Supima Tee Scoop Neck Short Sleeve

I didn't like this shirt. I returned it. It was see-thru. I prefer white shirts that aren't see-thru.

Great summer weight shirt with a flattering cut, but the first time I washed it (all free & clear detergent), large splotches of the yellow faded out to white. Looks almost tie dyed. Nothing else in the load was ruined, and I hadn't used any bleach or fabric softener. Disappointing.

The second time I wore this tee, after washing, it developed several small holes in front. I can't wear it anymore I am very disappointed.

Although I liked the scoop neckline detail, I found this fabric to feel limp and look shapeless, shiny and hard/cold. I returned it for an excessive amount of synthetic modal (38%) and so much spandex (6%) it felt like wearing a bathing suit. Overall, this fabric felt slimy.

The material in this Tee is, as one other reviewer stated, so thin it is not wearable as a Tee; it would have to be an undergarment. There also seems to be nothing fitted about it - very blocky. Very disappointed in this product - not up to LLBean standards.

I purchased this less than 3 months ago. Love the shirt but already am seeing about 6 small holes in the bottom front area. When will our garment industry begin demanding knit fabrics that don't get holes in after only wearing for a few months?

The good: The Soft Spruce color is outstanding. The scoop neck is moderately deep but narrow, creating an oval opening on the chest that mirrors face shape. The bad: With barely over 50% cotton, the neckline has no body. It stretches out (despite no stress to it, given how big the opening is), and lies limp and twisted. The blend provides a soft drape, but the softness borders on languid, leaning toward shapelessness. Over the last few years purchasing cotton-blend tops from Bean, I'm finding that their synthetic knits almost always pill, making these purchases last only a single season ... unless you don't mind using a sweater stone to remove rampant balls of fabric under the arms and down the sides. Overall, this top has no style elements that elevate it beyond what it is: A plain, overpriced, low-quality, single-season tee.

The fabric is very thin and the white is see through. I'm returning it

These shirts were not as expected. They run big and the fit is boxy. I should have returned them.
