Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Vista Camp Pants

Love the comfort but stitching pulling apart after 3 times worn.

I have several pairs of these. Love all the pockets and the light weight and the way they dry super fast after I've been wading. They hold up great in the washer. BUT some pairs pilled horribly right from the start. I have no idea why as I treat them all the same. And not just between the legs, where it might be explainablenope, all over, very visible, very ugly pilling. Super frustrating and makes me think twice about buying any more.

I had high expectations for these pants, but they fell short--literally. I am 5'7' and these pants in regular are 1" too short. The tall is too long. Also, the medium is too baggy and the small is too tight in the knees. (An "articulated knee" would surely help). I love the fabric, details and waistline. This is an LL Bean best seller and true numeric sizing and additional inseam options should be offered. I'd love to purchase these--but, as it stands, they do not fit.

The pants run large. Not flattering on me at all. The material seems comfortable but' overall they re way too big.

These pants are very thin. Not what I was looking for so I sent them back.

The fabric was great, but for a size petite xs, it was too big and too long, it would have been a perfect if the fit ws right

These are such great pants (pockets, fit, colors), but the fabric pills like crazy, which makes them uncomfortable against the skin and doesn't look good. If they could fix the fabric issue, these would perfect pants!

Too loose in the waist and hips. The thigh pockets are too shallow for smart phones.

Very strange as I lived the cropped version of this pant - lightweight, super comfy and quick drying. But somehow the full length pant looked a bit dumpy - like I didn't have a great fitting pant on. I kept for gardening or outside when I want sun protection kayaking or walking the neighborhood but wouldn't wear out w friends. Too baggy.

I thought I had found the perfect, lightweight hiking pants. They were very comfortable, I liked the cinched in bottom of the pant leg, and I liked the color. Unfortunately they started to pill right awayand within a couple of hikes, the material was ridiculously pilled. All over. They were unwearable. It was so disappointing. I bought them in navy as well, and though the pilling is not as visible on that color, it is just as maddening. I would not purchase these again.

Hi, I love the way these pants look and fit. Unfortunately, the top stitching on both thighs, and now stitching on the waistband are all coming undone. I'm returning this pair to see if the next will have the same problem. I would like to buy more if the unraveling stitches are just a fluke, otherwise can't see buying new pants that need repair from nearly day one.

They are very comfy and like the drawstring on the ankles but the fit is not at all flattering for larger bottoms or thighs... If you don't care about that, they're fine.

First let me say these pants are so comfy. The shape and fit is great, the material stretches easily, and there are lots of pockets. I got the russet-colored ones and the color is rich and just what I expected. However, one of the reasons I chose these pants was the drawstring, and that's the pants' major failing. The drawstring is stretchy, which at first glance seems really convenient: I can take the pants off without untying the drawstring! But the stretchiness means that it's nearly impossible to get the waistband comfortably snug. And once you put anything in your pockets, the pants start creeping towards the floor. Worst of all, the drawstring is sewn into the casing in the back, so I can't easily change it out for a sturdier one!

First I was surprised something labeled as camp pants would be delicate cycle washable. Secondly I noticed a snag in the fabric after only wearing them twice and just for average every day wear. I was expecting something more rugged and durable and am disappointed. They are very comfortable but not worth it since they can't even hold up to daily activity

I really wanted to like these pants. LL Bean stopped offering women's Tall pant sizes a while ago, so I was happy when I saw that these come in a 33" inseam, especially since it's nearly impossible to find functional cargo pants for women at all, let alone in a longer length. So I ordered them. Well, if I had seen and felt them in the store, I doubt I would have bought them. First of all, they are a little pricey. The fabric is nice but very thin - hopefully it holds up and doesn't wear out too soon, but it seems pretty flimsy. The cargo pockets on the side of the legs are not deep enough. I tried putting my cell phone (iPhone 11) in the pocket and could not button the flap. Also, those buttons are off-center, which looks a little odd. If they made some minor adjustments to the pockets it would be a big improvement. On the positive side, these pants are comfortable. I won't bother returning them, but I also wouldn't order them again.

the Pant fabric had no body and t hey were very thin and droopy.. Saving for very hot weather possible comfort use.

I am still making adjustments to the pants so they fit. The ankle straps were the first things to go. Then I shortened the legs. They have plenty of very lightweight, floppy nylons, snaggy fabric That is not the main issue. The fabric concerns me as they are marketed as "camp pants", but I'm pretty sure that near a campfire is the last place I would wear them since they appear to be flammable.nylon and spandex. Very little cotton -like material here! Is this true?I have been a loyal buyer of this brand for years, but this pant is just sub all around. Sorry LLBEAN.

When I say too large, I mean that the legs of this pant are extremely wide. Super comfortable but I could not wear in public. Looks like they're the bottom half of my clown costume. Picture shows them roomy but this is ridiculous.

These pants have two decorative seams that cross diagonally across the front of the thigh down towards the knee that make the pants very uncomfortable! The seams rubbed against my legs and were very irritating. I really wanted these pants to work but unfortunately, I had to return them.

Sweet:Loved this pant: fit, versatility,light weight, pockets. Bitter: after 1-2 months material started pilling! So, disappointing. Aren't camp pants supposed to be made of long lasting, rugged material? What's going on LL Bean? Aren't your clothes being field tested anymore for endurance? Are they just made for your models? Yes, this sounds very bitter and for that I'm sorry.

I love these pants. I got 2 pairs at an LL Bean store when traveling. Loved the fit and comfort. I just wore a pair the other day and washed it and was disappointed how it was pilling. Hopefully I can return both pairs. The is disappointing esp for the price paid.

The fit is fine, but the fabric is fragile. I wore them outside in the garden and within a short time realized there were snags and pulls in the fabric. I was not walking through a briar patch! So these are fine if you spend your day on a reclining sofa, but not suitable for a normal active lifestyle, let alone as "camp pants".

I would give these a 5 if they didn't pill. Their life is short before they look raggedy. I am so disappointed. They fit fine and are comfortable but even with light wear they pill and look lousy.

They are comfy, looked great, but snagged on everything. They "pilled" all over and I could only wear them around the house :-(

They really bunch up in the front. Combination of material , gathering at waist in front and pockets make them really pouch out in front and back slide down when sitting; and bending; so am sending back
