Customers praise the soft cotton/linen blend, lightweight feel, and versatile styling across seasons. Many highlight the flattering fit and three-quarter sleeves as favorites. However, petite sizing runs significantly short and shrinks further after washing, with some reporting crop-top proportions. Wrinkling persists despite care instructions, and several note the fabric becomes scratchy after washing. Color accuracy varies—aqua appears too green, salmon not dark enough. While some experience quality concerns and pocket issues, most customers find the shirt's comfort and adaptability worthwhile despite these drawbacks.
Good coverage in hot weather, lightweight and airy, 3/4 sleeves cover my wrinkly arms.
I bought it in navy because I like to wear blue but it's so dark you can't tell it's blue.

Fits nicely for now
Fit: True to size
I have another one of these that started out fitting perfectly. But after 2 washings, it shrunk in the length. I'm hoping this one is different.

I thought this would be useful but I doubt that I'll ever wear it. The top of the sleeve sits about 3 inches down your arm, not up on your shoulder as normal. And that looks very o

Very disappointed with the lack of quality with these shirts. Flimsy material that hangs wrong on the body. I normally love LL Bean. Bummer.

I have loved all my LL Bean products until this Polo. The fabric is too light weight to support the collar and the neck opening is too deep.
