Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Vista Trekking Shorts 9"

These are nice fitting light weight shorts, great for summer. They stretch when you need to stretch, yet fill secure on your body. They dry quickly and feel comfortable to the touch. Just the right length. I am a plus size woman who has a thicker middle and can truly say they feel great on.

Is true to size and fits well. Comfortable, cool and easy to care for. Very happy with these shorts.

Love to wear shorts for everyday activities and camping. Looking forward to some outdoor activities.

I've been a fan of the trail shorts for years, but the new fabric and cut this year didn't work for me, so I tried these Vista shorts. I absolutely love them! They are super comfortable, lightweight, flattering and good for a range of activities, from working from home to kayaking (they dry quickly). Hoping for additional colors, such as navy and a medium brown.

Very comfortable. Perfect fit - they are true to size.

Lightweight and cool in the heat Fits well, not tight Stylish enough for going out on the town Comfortable enough for hiking and other physical activity

Great shorts. Love the fit and all the pockets. Would definitely buy these again.

Great women's shorts! Easy care, breathable fabric and stretchy when hiking and gardening.

I love these shorts. They have great stretch and they are so light and they don't bind. I also like all of the pockets and the front ones are nice and deep.

Very comfortable shorts. Love the zipper pockets. 5 stars.

Ordered a 16. Fit perfect. Very comfortable. Love all the pockets. Dries quick if they get wet. Worth the price!

I love these shorts. They have gobs of pockets and don't ride up when you're hiking. They are very light and dry really quickly. Very nice shorts for hiking, gardening, boating, anything really.

Comfortable, fits true to size, love the grey color.. great pockets!

I think they run big I am normally a 4 but found them better in a 2 I am 5'4 115lbs

I have several pairs of the Vista shorts. They have great pockets-two secure pockets that will keep an I phone secure without flopping around. The two hand pockets are deep enough to secure a chap stick, some change without fear of losing the contents. The fit I really like as I don't like tight fitting shorts. A short rise so don't have to keep them up high on the waist. Perfect length too. The material is super light weight so they dry quickly if you get wet.

Great fit, the waist isn't snugger than the hips which is amazing.

There is just a little more room in the waist in these shorts which makes all the difference in the fit for me. I wish they had more colors!

Very comfortable and lightweight shorts. They're great for hiking and gardening even when the weather is toasty like it has been.

These are great. I love the fit. They are so comfortable and cool. I bought 3 pairs and they are my go to shorts for the summer. I would highly recommend them. They are very flattering as well.

The fit & fabric make these the most comfortable shorts I've found in years. I didn't expect the lower rise to work, but it's still flattering. They launder well; I plan to take them on travels so I can wash them in the bathroom sink & dry on a hanger overnight. I already bought a second pair in tan, as well as a pair of the pants. I'm 5'4", 140 lbs, normally buy 10 or 12, medium. I bought the 10 (after returning the too large 12).

The shorts fit to size. Are very comfortable and loved all the pockets for hiking!

This is the 3rd time I have bought these shorts. The fabric is lightweight and slightly elastic. There is just enough give in the fabric to accommodate bending, stretching, climbing hills or taking big steps. The cargo pockets lie flat against my thighs -- which are bulky enough on their own and do not need excess fabric making them look even larger! I can put my phone on one side and a small tube of sunscreen on the other, plus a car key or something. Sizing is true -- I normally wear a 10 and that's what I bought -- fits perfect. The length is a maybe 3-4" above my knee, which is great. I'm sure I'll keep buying this same pair until I can no longer hike!

Love these shorts. They fit just right and the length is great. Not too short and not too long. I would love it if these could be made in navy as well.

Very lightweight and comfortable. I bought them for a trip and they were perfect with lots of pockets for phone, etc. The fit is good.

comfortable shorts. Love the colors, wash up nice!
