Customer Reviews Lee All Day Straight Leg Pants

They turned out a little more baggy than I thought they would be.

The All Day Pants (formerly Relaxed Straight Leg at-the-waist, 98% cotton) now have a suede-like fabric which attracts lint and pet hair like crazy. It doesn't come off when laundered - it requires a lint roller. I wear these pants for work and they are uncomfortable because the fabric sticks to my socks and puts pressure on my knee when I'm seated.

I do NOT like pants that "hug" my legs, even if they "flex". I need something that elongates and "shaping" material does NOT provide leg "elongation".

Have been buying relaxed fit, straight leg jeans for some time. Now other fabrics have been added other than the 2% spandex. I just took 3 items out of my basket. Each color has its own fabric content What a pain. Only found 1 of my original colors in the original fabric. Boo.

I liked the fit and ordered 3 different colors in Tall. The black ones fit well, length was good. The navy pair was 1 3/4 inches longer. The gray pair was 4 1/4 inches longer. there is a serious quality control issue on length. If you're not willing to hem them yourself or keep returning until something works, you might want to avoid these pants.

I purchased two pair. One in navy and one in the chestnut. I was very disappointed that the chestnut fit was totally different than the navy. The calf was very narrow and I had to return. The material was a little heavier than I wanted for the warmer weather but wearable with air cond. I don't understand why size should be different since both were made in the same country. Color should not dictate sizing.

I got a couple pairs of these for christmas. they are not the same as the old lee. They are wash and wear. The new ones fit really well for me but the problem is the wrinkles. they look like ive wadded them up at the bottom everytime I've washed and dried them or hung them doesnt matter. I can't even iron out off of the wrinkles. Thankfully they are comfortable and long enough for my tall frame so I've been living with it. It stinks to iron something so completely to never get rid of all the wrinkles.

While I love the feel of these pants, the amount of lint that they pick up is a problem.

I recently purchased the charcoal heather Relaxed Fit All Day Pant at the VF Outlet in Branson and love the pant. I agree with the Ohio reviewer's comment of 11/5/17. I feel the fabric is heavy enough to wear in the winter unlike the all cotton pant. I was disappointed that the black pant available in the store was not the same fabric as the charcoal heather. Hoping to find the same warm fabric online, I found all of the other colors are the cool cotton fabric. Those are fine for warm weather, but not wintertime, at least in west central Missouri. I just put away my all cotton pants until Spring. Hope Lee considers making at least the basic black and navy in this heavier fabric.

I saw many comments about the change in sizing and material, but I needed new pants, so I had to try. I don't hate the material, but it definitely feels heavy to me compared to what I used to get and it attracts lint very easily. The fit would be okay even with the stretching if the waste actually fit me. It's really weird to have a waste that feels like it is as big as my hips. The only way I can wear these is to take in the waste myself. I've thought about trying a size smaller, but the reviews I've read of those who have done this are not encouraging. I will either have to make do or see if I can find another brand that fits better. Not really looking forward to either.

While these are a comfortable fit, they are not at all as pictured...I have been looking for a bit narrower leg and have always enjoyed the fit of Lee jeans, so when I saw the photos of this pant I was excited to try it. After all, look at the picture of the model's leg--it is nice and narrow. I was SO disappointed when they arrived and the pant leg is NOT at all narrow, but rather wide--not even what I would call straight leg! I am now deciding whether to send them back and attempt another style or not, or to just keep them since they fit and are comfortable!

I like the fit of these slacks. They fit legs and butt well and the average length is just right. I only like the non-cotton selections of which there is currently only one. I keep coming back and checking for more of a selection of poly-rayon, but no such luck.

I've been buying these pants for quite a while. They seem to have gotten tighter even though my build is staying the same (no weight gain). The material seems to fade as well and catches lint pretty easily. And when you wash them, they shrink. It's hard to find pants for business attire for work and this makes it harder. Also, make sizes above 16 more available in local stores. I absolutely hate ordering on line as I can't try them on and paying for items before they are tried on then having to return them is a pain in the rear.

I have the older/preferred style in a size 2 regular. The petite sizes are too short. Bring back a regular size 2! Plus, your color selections are limiting in your expanded size ranges, I need something besides black and charcoal pants!

As others have said I really don't like the stretchy material. I have several pair that I bought last year that I believe are the same style - similar fit anyway, in cotton and I like them very much. I also bought a knit pair that I like and would buy more if they were available. I do like the fact these pants fit at the waist and the leg opening is narrower. Unlike other reviewers, I was not a fan of the old style pants, preferring the comfort fit better.

I have used this style for many years. The fabric and material isn't the same. I preferred the old style of 100% cotton. They just seemed more comfortable.

The new fabric with more spandex doesn't drape as nicely as the previous fabric. Also the cut seems to be tighter -at least when you first put them on. After a short time of wearing them, they stretch and become too loose. And the hems frequently have stitched-in wrinkles. These used to be my favorite go-to pants -I could count on Lee to provide a consistent product. Not now. Guess I have to start hunting for a new favorite! I agree with other reviewers - please bring back the old fabric and fit!

These pants didn't sit right on my body . I think the crotch depth seam design was off. The waist band was very high on my back , but the bum sagged . the front waistband was lower than I like. The pockets were not smooth. I wish we could order from Lee.com by style number. I keep track of styles that fit me best.

I wear these pants everyday to work and after several washings they shrink in length! I am 5'11" and I buy the tall length (which is already very limited to 2 colors) and I have to hang them to dry in an attempt to keep them long enough. I just bought a new pair and layed them side by side and the difference is almost 2 inches in length!! That's ridiculous! Use a fabric that doesn't shrink so much!

I have been wearing these pants for over 15 years. I would buy 10 or more pair a year if they would bring back the previous fabric and quality. In the past , I could always depend on the fit!!! I sent three new pair to the cleaners to be shortened in the size I always order. None of them fit!!! I would pay more for the old pants!!!

i now have to try on every pair as fit varies. I have worn since I first found them, about 20 years ago. I could buy any style and the always fit .

The pants fit fine, however, these won't wash out. I had bacon grease pop on the pants. I have used every type of prewash, soaking, etc....nothing works.

Pants fit well but the quality of the fabric is not as good as it used to be. The old pants I have were made with Good quality fabric and fit perfectly. Please, I don't care if I have to pay more for a pair of pants if you add more cotton to the fabric!!!!

The LOOK - these have all of the annoyance of linen. All is crisp when I set out on my FOUR mile drive to work. They look like smashed up summer linen as soon as I get out of the car. Other than that they are extremely comfortable. Size/length frustration: I must try on all 12s and 14s in both regular and long - and then see what fits. Sometimes it's the smaller, sometimes the larger. Then I need either a 'long' regular or a 'short' long. This is especially frustrating as it prohibits you from being able to purchase pants that fit from any online location. I understand that the 'heathered' versions (as opposed to the 'woven' versions) wrinkle much less. I have not yet encountered any heathered varieties in my size. I even attempted to match the overall fit reliability based upon the country of origin but that was not reliable either. This situation is especially frustrating as it is so difficult for me to get pants to fit because I'm shortwaisted and have a flat backside. So close.....

Comparing the "newer" pants to the same style Lee's that I used to love just a few years ago, these are noticeably "cheaper" made. Thin fabric, poorly stiched together, smaller pockets in the front, no pockets in the back, too elastic to stay in shape during the day. "At-the-waist" doesn't mean that anymore either - it is now 2 inches below my waist. Also size "L" used to mean long enough to end at my heals, not barely on my ankles. Next time I will search elsewhere to find "new old stock" Lee's pants.
