Hello! I have purchased 3/4 sleeve wrinkle free shirts from LL Bean for business because I cannot buy them from regular LL Bean anymore. The long sleeve wrinkle free version you sell looks weird on me with the one pocket and no darts. Also, I like to flip my cuffs when I'm hot. I loved all the patterns and florals and actually have a couple of dozen or maybe even 40 or more of these from the regular catalog because they became my work wardrobe as my health declined and my abdomen would bloat from endometriosis and GI inflammation and the sewn in darts would help conceal it. I've tried getting shirts from Foxcroft but your material is a little bit smoother especially in the early to mid 00s, a quite good quality cotton. So now I'm trying the plain shirts from your business catalog even though the patterns did and still do conceal my abdomen and I suspect the cotton quality has declined, it certainly did over the years of buying the shirts, the crisp smooth texture felt more like a synthetic fabric. Anyway, here's to hoping i can figure out how a tailor can covert the long sleeve shirt to a 3/4 sleeve darted no pocket one or that I can wear plain colors well and they look as unwrinkly as the patterns. I started buying Bean products in high school in the 80s and also love the original Baxter State Parka and your windbreaker when the color didn't have a zipper.
