Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Sleep Pants Regular

Bought these as a Christmas gift for my husband to replace a pair of the same pants that he'd bought from L.L. Bean years ago and absolutely loved, but that had finally succumbed to years of wear and tear. Unfortunately, the newer version is of much lower quality...the inseam on one leg tore wide open creating a large hole after the pants had been worn only 3-4 times. Disappointing.

These are very good quality sleep pants. The flannel is quality through and through. However, these are men's sleep pants, and the omission of a fly is, in my buying dollars unforgiveable! I am staggered that they would be designed without a fly. I was so aggravated with this huge oversight, I canceled the flannel robe I ordered and was backordered. If I had knew of this design flaw I wouldn't have ordered the sleep pants.

Had to hem these beautiful flannel pants, necessitating cutting a few inches off. Basted new hems in place three different times, because the pants kept falling down to hips, constantly changing the length despite tightening the drawstring. Finally, checked the waist against older sleep pants from LLBean. Old ones have great elastic despite years of washing. Saw that the new ones had almost non-existent elastic. Returned them, asking for refund or replacement with ones that have good elastic. Still awaiting resolution.

Do not order. There is no fly.

A pajama bottom for men without a fly? Not a very good idea. Furthermore, I am stuck with a return fee for a poorly designed product. Surely, LL can do better than that.

Usually a toss up between M and L for me, with L usually being a little too big and M just right or possibly a bit too small. The M in these pants were absolutely gargantuan. I get that there are variations in sizes occasionally, but not even close on sizing here...no exaggeration, these M pants had the fit of at least an XL, probably a 2XL.

Worthless. There is no fly in these pajamas. Most men do not sit down to urinate.

I have gotten a pair of these pants for my husband every Christmas for the last 4+ years. We have always loved them and been satisfied. This year, the pants we received are awful. The crotch seam tore within a month of normal wear. Upon inspection, I realized the seam was obviously defective and the fabric was tissue paper thin and already wearing through, and another part of the seam was already coming apart. If at any point these pants had been inspected for quality control, it would have been clear they were damaged. When I tried to get a replacement, most of the colors were out of stock already for the year. I took the pants to be repaired as best as they could be with how poor the fabric and sewing quality is, at my own expense. And we will be lucky if the fabric lasts the season with how flimsy it is. I have never been so dissatisfied by an LLBean product or their customer service and will not be making any more purchases with this company. We are so disappointed.

No fly, LL Bean should state this more clearly in the description of this product.

Firstly, I love L.L. Bean products - normally. The flannel shirts we've ordered are phenomenal. However, I ordered three pairs of these flannel pants (as a gift) and in less than six months of occasional use, one pair is threadbare along the front and inner seams. On close inspection, the flannel seems very, very thin and not substantial at all. Yes, it's beautiful and soft - but it is not durable. Something has changed about the quality. In contrast, Hubby has a pair from JCPenney that is over three years old and still going strong.

I have been buying these for 5 years. They have always been comfortable and lasted 2-3 years. The last batch I bought (3-4) have all ripped in the inseam within 1-2 months. Having looked carefully at the stitching and the material, it is clear that these are being made with cheaper quality materials. This is bothersome as I wonder if it is a new trend. I have bought from LL Bean for 30 years, and the one thing I always, always trusted was quality. Sure, sizes may jump around, colours may not look like I thought...but quality was never in doubt. Too bad.

Pilled so bad - all over my washer, dryer, floor. Poor quality - very disappointed. I am returning.

The pants were of good quality material and fit as expected from LLBean. However, unbelievably there was no fly opening as you would expect for a man's pant. I am not going to drop my pants every time I go to the bathroom. Nothing is mentioned in the description about this fact. Obviously, I immediately sent back the two pants ordered. Whether they are going to charge me for shipping back the pants is up to them, but the $6.99 cost is worth the price for not having worthless pants. Just a silly design. I have ordered from Bean for many years, but this may well change my decision in the future.

I Expect sleep pants to have a button fly! It's not easy when you have to get up 2-3 times a night to have to go and find you have to drop your pants to the floor. Not only that you have to pull them back up again. Not easy for older person with bad back. I'll have to throw these away. For the price they could have put a fly in them !!!
