Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 1912 Sweatpants

Cozy fabric. Heavier weight than most sweatpants. Comfortable. Seem 5o run bigger than expected.

The material is nice. It's thick and soft. I did have to return them though. I tried the large first, but they were too large even though not quite long enough. Next I tried the medium, but they were too small and much too short. I guess they are meant to be worn down on the hip, but that is uncomfortable to me. Unfortunately, there is only one style with a higher waist that did not have the colors I was interested in. Sadly, I'll have to look elsewhere.

Cute looking sweats! Bought the oatmeal color and love the look. Soft and comfortable but pricy and run very big.

I bought these in the dark gray and navy. Soft, thick, I will appreciate them a lot when the weather cools. I find them a bit too short. I notice a couple other reviewers said the same thing, and they both are 5'7", so maybe shorter women don't have this issue. I will keep them, but ankles exposed is not my favorite look or feel. Otherwise, great sweats.

These are well made sweats, good material. I found the fabric thicker than any sweats I've owned, so I was surprised to read others found it thin at all. Warmest cotton I've ever worn. Wish they would make them in brighter colors. A nice kelly green, royal blue, red, a rich purple...I like the slate gray. It has a slight blue undertone, but all of the colors available combined with being sweats give off that "I've given up" vibe and that doesn't have to be the case with the look or how you feel about yourself in sweats. Comfort and cuteness need not be divided. I'd also like to see a lighter weight option for summer since these are too warm with heat or humidity. Other than color options, I'd like the legs a couple inches longer. They hang a bit highwater compared to other pants, but it's not a deal breaker. I absolutely love the cuff, though. It's gathered enough to keep warmth in, but not the usual tight and wide band that squeezes ankles.

Made well , soft and good fabric weight.... sadly they run BIG...Can't return as I already washed in hopes they would shrink as most sweats do ....but not these.

Well made & very comfortable. Would've given 5 stars but, as some other reviewers stated, found it a tad too short. Too bad it's not offered in med/tall sizes.

I usually wear a medium or large in clothing (size 10) but the medium sweats were too big! I could have gotten away with wearing them around the house, but I'm gifting the pants to my mom and will be purchasing a size small, which I believe will fit much better!

These appear to be great quality, thicker and more cozy than most of the "fashion" joggers around, but the waist is very large. I followed the size chart and purchased a medium, but I wish I had gone down a size. I have an average-shaped body and these would not stay up without tying the waist string very tightly. They are still pretty comfortable, although very unflattering in the too-large size, but I think I will keep them rather than go through the hassle of returning them since they are strictly for indoor use, but I would suggest sizing down.

Very comfortable for lounging around or for walks with the dog. Nice deep pockets. Love the bottom, covered elastics, to keep the wind out. They are big enough for thermal underwear, when it is very cold. Would buy this product again!

My one complaint is that the waist tie is not elastic.

These are very soft sweatpants. I thought they might be a bit more substantial "rough" cotton due to being more vintage style, but they are not. Only real complaint from me, is I think they are a bit on the shorter side, but you can't fit everyone perfectly. I am 5'7" and they hit mid-ankle. These are for around the house only, so I am perfectly fine with this and will keep them. Great quality sweatpants.

Very casual and loose fit. Definitely an around the house and yard sweatpants.

I love the waistband, but the fabric at thigh level pooches out. Even after washing and drying they look funny on that one spot.

Very comfortable sweatpants I could live in these but the size does run large. Sags a bit at the waist. I ordered my usual XL size and had to exchange for Large and the waist is still a bit too big.

I have the same sweatpants in grey that fit fine. The navy is small.

I purchased these sweatpants in charcoal and agree with a lot of the reviews - they're ok, but not great. First, they do run large and a little short. However, the main problem for me is the rather stiff (although well-constructed) drawstring waistband which is a little difficult to adjust and not particularly comfortable. I'm 5'5"/90# and ordered XS Regular. I tend to prefer loose clothing anyway and these are about a size larger than other brands in my closet. The length is high ankle length so a little short. However, on a positive note, they are very high quality and have a lower rise which is a great find for those of us that don't like high-waisted styles. All in all, OK. They will be fine to have as after-work comfy pants.

Too small in waist. I usually wear a L but the LX was still too tight.

Material to thin - needed an extra weight to the pants

I really wanted to keep these pants. They are very nice and I got them on sale. BUT there is minimal elastic in the waist and you must use the drawstring. For me, this is very uncomfortable and I could not keep them. Sadly, they are going back.

The fit is very good. The fabric is somewhat weak, not a nice thick sweats knit.

Comfortable and soft, but don't feel as high quality as I was expecting for the high price. Reason I will return them however are the pockets. Sadly yet another women's product with much smaller pockets than the men's version... Disappointing

I wear a size 8 petite in slacks so thinking that the size 10-12 would be too large for me I ordered the petite small. (I'm 5'2"", 112-115 lbs.). That pair was too tight across my stomach and difficult to pull up. I returned those and ordered the petite medium. I immediately washed those and they did shrink a bit so that they weren't so full in the thighs and legs. They are comfortable and I like the color. However, for me the waistband is difficult to chinch and it does not stay tight. Since I only wear these at home and can retie them often I'm keeping these.

The material is soft and comfy, unfortunately mine will require alterations The waist is large and the length is long, not unusual being 4'11 and 122lbs. A size medium.

Love color and fit, not the length. They shrank immediately in the length although they were washed in cold and air-dryer. Disappointed.
