Fig on L.L.Bean shirts is a deep muted purple-plum color, closer to a dusty berry or wine tone than a bright pink. On L.L.Bean’s site, “Fig” appears as one of the listed shirt colors, while related items like “Fig Bean Boot” suggest it’s used as a recognizable named shade in their palette.

Quick read

  • Best plain-English description: dark mauve / plum / berry.
  • Tone: warm, muted, and earthy rather than vivid.
  • What it looks like in practice: a subdued reddish-purple that can shift slightly brown or gray depending on lighting.

Color vibe

If you’re trying to match it, think of:

  • dried fig skin,
  • dusty wine,
  • muted burgundy with a purple cast.

That’s why it tends to read as a sophisticated neutral-adjacent color instead of a loud statement shade.

Tiny style note

It usually pairs well with:

  • navy,
  • cream,
  • olive,
  • denim,
  • charcoal.

If you want, I can also help compare Fig to another L.L.Bean color name like Shell Pink, Bay Leaf, or Deep Rose.
