Absolutely love these pants. They are my 3rd pair - I wear them so much! Great for fall/spring golf!

What I love about these pants: lightweight, pack wonderfully, lots of pocket space, two zippered pockets, color variety, ability to cinch or uncinchat ankle, excellent length for me, drawstring waist, very comfortable.
The bad: fabric has pilled on my oldest pairs (too soon); and the drawstring is too elastic (I wouldn't have believed this is possible before I got these pants) but it can be difficult to tie the waist tight enough so that the weight of items in my pockets dont pull the pants too low. Now, when I find a good amount of tension in the waist, I leave the pants tied and treat them as pull-up pants.
Room for improvement: the back pockets could be redesigned to be more usable.
I have 6 pairs and one that is fleece-lined which is super soft and great for activities like shoveling snow and feeling cozy in the winter.
These are the best pants I have found for travel. It's nice to be able to cinch the ankles for a short errand by bicycle or to ward off ticks when out for a walk. These are also great for relaxing and staying comfortable.

This is my first purchase of this style. I purchased them specifically for the SPF so I could wear them while walking and multiple pockets would hold my phone, house keys, etc. I'm 5'3" and 118 lbs. I normally wear a Petite Small and that size was too large, especially when the elastic waist added a lot of extra bulk. I exchanged them for a Petite XS for a much beater fit. Can't speak to any other features, but felt sizing was an issue.

I have been wearing "skinny" jeans for so long, it's hard to start wearing something "baggy". I am 5'-1/2" tall, and 128 lbs. They run big and the ankle snugger string at the bottom is a little weird, but I tied it after I got them snugged in . I haven't washed them yet, so we'll see.

I love these pants. They're lightweight and so comfortable to wear during the warm/hot weather. They wash and dry great and they have plenty of pockets.

I like these camp pants very much; they are a nice weight for travel. The only thing I don't like is the drawstring. It is much longer than I would like it to be.

I loved the Vista fabric in shorts, in fact bought 2 pairs. Thought I'd try the camp pants. They fit well but the fabric felt somewhat warm and clammy compared to my experience with the shorts.

These pants are super light and very comfortable. But they are also very long and cinching them at the bottom is a little confusing. My next pair will be petite!

Great fit and comfy, but already started piling lint balls on surface after one wash.

I bought three pairs in different colors and these were the only pants I brought on our 10 day trip to Iceland. Very comfortable, breathable and dry quickly. They are thin so not for colder climates, but if needed I layered them on top of a pair of leggings which worked well.

These pants do not run true size. I wear a size 4. I have two other pairs of these pants at home. The pants I got from L.L. Bean recently were unusually large. They were also not the same style as my older pants and this is what I was looking for, the same pants I had in a different color. It was very disappointing. I'm finding a lot of the pants I own currently run smaller than what L.L. Bean has for sale now. I am very disappointed.

These pants have very mixed reviews especially about pilling and wrinkling after washing. However, I am returning them because the fit is awful. The waistband is all stretched out and has no elasticity. It's as if someone wore them and then returned. The loops at the bottom of the legs are just pointless. I thought maybe the cinch was missing. But no, they are designed this way and seem to be a tripping hazard IMO.
I would like to exchange them for an XS but can't get past the negative reviews. Never mind the drawstring leg bottoms.

I'd so love to give these 5 stars! Everything about them is fabulous. But what... what the absolute heck...seriously... is the point of that little elastic loop in the cuff? It serves absolutely no purpose, unlike any of the other pants by Bean (see Vista attached which shortens the length) and all the outdoor wear company's that have a lock cinch (see attached with pic of these pants). These are just a hanging look for what? Honestly, what is this thing on these pants????
I hope customer service has an answer.

They fit and are comfortable. I do wish that there was a version of this pant that closed with a zipper and was "regular" waisted.

These pants were true to size, are lightweight and are just right in warmer weather. Reviews talked about a problem with pilling after a few washes but I have not experienced this so far. My one complaint is that the side buttoned pockets could be just a bit larger, not much fits in them.

Draw string is stretchy and way to long. Had five inches on each side removed. Still long.
