The perfect long-sleeved top

I’m looking for recs as I can’t keep buying stuff and sending it back…

I’m looking for a comfortable long-sleeved top, jersey, nice and long, not too baggy or clingy, has anyone found this?

I just bought a lovely looking striped top from and/or but it was too short and I don’t want to have to keep pulling it down to cover my massive pot belly

I like lands end long sleeved tops. Might be a bit clingy but if your looking for jersey type they all will all cling a bit only a blouse style won't cling at all, but there a good length so don't ride up and wash well.

I was going to suggest Lands End as well! I have a couple, still look good after lots of washing and the body and sleeves are nice and long.

I got mine from H and M. 12.99

I have returned Boden ( horrible and see through, weird fit) and Seasalt that shrank in the wash)

H and M are the dogs bollocks.

I like Esprit for basic long sleeve tops. I have a few and they all wash well.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 18/11/2021 18:08

Seasalt are too short. The only good ones I've found in ages were Jigsaw and they seem to have stopped doing those particular ones. It's infuriating! Surely such a thing shouldn't be so hard to find?

The H&M ones were too clingy for me and the elastane content made them a bit sweaty.

M&S ones go at the neck, and become shorter and wider after a couple of washes.

I've got one from Arket, but the neckline is too high. Good quality though and washes well.

I like gap modern boatneck or modern crewneck tops. They come in tall too so fab for me at 5ft10 and disproportionately long in the torso

I was also going to say Esprit
