Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Vista Camp Pants

I love the style and color of these pants. I wear them for every day. I like the drawstring and elastic waistband; it allows me to loosen or tighten them. I gave this pant only 4 stars because the fabric pills and snags easily not very durable. I have only had these pants for a few months, and they already look very worn. I am very careful when I wash them. Turning them wrong side out and washing them separately on delicate and hang them to dry. I purchased 3 pairs at $79 each is pricey. I wish they would make them of a more durable fabric. For this reason I will not be purchasing any more in the future unless they improve the fabric.

Wonderful, comfortable pants, but they have a huge drawback. The cargo pocket is too small to fit a phone and a phone doesn't fit nicely in any of the other pockets. LL Bean! Please redesign! In all other respects, these are my go-to pants.

Nice light weight pants, only issue is all the pockets are too small to hold a cell phone that is 6.5"x3"

Love these pants - now have them in 4 colors (and 3 colors in the capris). Only reason I rated 4 stars is the drawstring at the elastic waist. I always cut the strings shorter and just tie knots in them. I am 5'7", 144 lbs and the medium fits perfectly.

Compared to the large petite pants, the fit in the waist & hips of the medium petite is excellent, but I wish there were a bit more ease in the legs. Also, it appears that the pockets have shrunk to such a degree that they just aren't as functional. Pockets aren't for decoration --- they need to be big enough to hold real things!

I don't like to complain because I do absolutely love these pants. I have every color; however, for some reason I had to return two different pairs because the seam over the knee area started to come apart. Quite frankly I don't know why they put seams above the knees rather than a solid straight pant leg. Also, the last pair that I purchased, the fabric seemed to wrinkle easily - never had this problem. Not a big deal, but just wondered if there was a change in the fabric? I do love these pants so I will continue to purchase them - just need more colors because I already have them all! P.S. Took several pairs on vacation and they took up so little space in the luggage!

These pants feel light and wonderful, and the Medium Tall option means that they are actually long enough for me. The cut is quite baggy on me and I don't think I'll win any fashion awards, but what the hey. Pockets galore, but I wish the thigh ones were a bit larger. The waist drawstring keeps my pants up when the pockets are full, but I might replace it with a cord that isn't stretchy. So these pants aren't perfect for me but they are so comfortable that I'll be wearing them a lot, and overall I'm happy.

This is my 4th pair of Vista Camp Pants. I love them. Excellent for travel - don't wrinkle, shed dirt, quick dry and VERY comfortable. Fabric is very soft and stretchy. No pilling. I'm 5'4 - 117 lbs - ordered sm. I like the loose fit. Great for warm weather - not too heavy.

I loved these pants when I first got them. The material is very thin, almost see through when you hold it up to the light, but I was willing to let that pass. In fact I like them so much I ordered four more pairs. Then on one of the other pairs I ordered, I noticed after wearing them one time the thread for the seam in the center of the butt was starting to come unstitched. I sent that pair back as a return. Then I noticed the same stich coming lose today on the original pair I bought. I've worn this pair twice. I'm extremely disappointed that pants this expensive are so poor quality. I'll be inspecting the other pairs I bought and will likely return those as well.

Super lightweight for travel; lots of pockets too! Just what I wanted.

love the comfort, and fabric, but legs are too wide and long, pockets could be bigger. Only worn once so far and haven't had any pilling other reviews mentioned.

The pants fit beautifully and appeared of good quality. Yes, there is a but. I have slight neuropathy in one leg and the cargo pockets irritated the leg. I will be returning the pants. If you have good legs, I highly recommend them.

Love these pants. Have several pairs. The regular length worked for me and Im right on the edge of petite. Very comfortable. The elastic waist is nice but I dont love the tie. I removed it from my last pair. Wish the old green color would come back. I dont like the new green.

I love the featherlight weight of these pants. I have two pairs. The zipped pockets are great. Easy to slip pants on and off. On both pairs the stitching is coming undone in the same seam. Will probably overstitch to resolve.

The Vista camp pants, crops and Bermuda shorts are all my go-to casuals. I have well over a dozen in the Vista camp style. They are so comfortable and wear well, season after season. Only wish LL Bean could offer more colors.

I like that you can wear these causal or dress them up. The comfort is fantastic. I am disappointed the the price went from 69.00 to 79.00. A 10.00 dollar increase! I have quite a few pairs. I wear these everyday. However the cost will prohibit me from purchasing anymore

I should probably be embarrassed. But Im not. I own seven pairs of these pants!!! One in every color plus two in my favorite color (an earthy muted orange). Im retired and spend a lot of time hiking in and around Great Smoky Mountains National Park. These pants are soft, flexible and yet resilient. Plus, they have bunches of pockets! Because my community is outdoors oriented, I can wear them to restaurants as well! The material is thin (but tough), making them almost three season pants for my location in western North Carolina. Love these pants!! Please dont stop making them!!! BTW, they do run big, so order one size smaller.

I absolutely love the design of these pants. I love having all the pockets, especially the zippered ones. The pull string at the waist works great. What I hate is in less than a year from purchase I have returned 6 pairs and need to take back 2 more because they keep pilling badly in the crouch. Photo included is a pair i got 5 months ago that I don't tend to ware as much because of the color, most I have returned are worse than these. Thank goodness for the guarantee. Please make these out of fabric that does not pill.

The most comfortable pants that I have ever worn. Wash well, never need ironing. Great for travel.

I love the fit of these pants. I just wish they would offer a length of 32. The 31" is too short and the 33" is too long. I kept the longs ones anyway because I loved the pants but would love them more if LL Bean would offer more lengths.

First purchased these pants in navy blue and loved them so much I ordered another pair in gray. They are perfect for travel; lightweight and don't wrinkle.

Comfy pants light weight. Order smaller size runs big

Have to add to others - these pill terribly. I've had them for three years, but never worn that much and always washed inside out in cold on gentle wash; then line dried. I so want to order more because they look good on me but I cant stand the excessive pilling.

Love those Vista camp pants! Perfect all season pants. I now have them in 5 colors. They launder easy, and dry fast.
