Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Vista Camp Pants Crop

These pants are great , I'm waiting for the almond color to be available again in my size, and will order another pair. They are spendy for my ss income, but, they seem like they are great quality

I waited to purchase these pants due to complaints of pilling. Not sure what the issue is for those folks, but I love these! Have three pairs now in frequent rotation. No pilling. Excellent for travel as they pack down to almost nothing. I did buy some little spring stop toggles for the side cords. Also, wear a Large easily which is not my norm. No regrets!

According to L.L.Bean's fit chart, I ordered a size smaller than I wear, but honestly the only place they touch me is my waist. The waistband is super comfy, really soft knit and stretch. The pants are very light weight and fit extremely loosely. The feel like I am wearing pjs. I am keeping them because they feel so good. Just a very large fit for me.

I love these crops. My only criticism is the sizing. I am usually a size 8 and the small said size 6 - 8. Well, I am no where near a size 6 so I ordered up and the pants are definitely bigger than I needed. If I had known the elastic waist was so generous, I would have gone with the smaller size. Other than that the pants are wonderful quality and very forgiving, size wise

Great fit. Light weight and dries quickly. The only down side is the tie at the waist...a bit bulky and there's a lot of it. Different material or design might be better.

I like these crops, especially the zippered pockets. But I will probably pull out and cut off the odd little cinches at the bottom as they make the pants look weird and could catch on something, dangling there. Not sure why they are needed or maybe should be around the bottom, not up the side....

I ordered the cropped pants in size Small. I usually wear size 6 in other brands. However this size Small was large and baggy through the seat and thighs, and the waistband was loose enough to almost slip down. The fabric feels like it would be comfortable for hot weather and for travel. The pants are really cute, and I like the graphite color, so I'm exchanging for a size XS.

I love these pants! They are light and comfortable and have many handy pockets. I bought them for travel but wear them all the time! I would have given them 5 stars but for several things. I wish there was not drawstrings and I wish LLbean had them in petite. Just received a second pair. I wash them in cold water, on delicate and dry them a few minutes and then hang them up till thouroughly dry.

Pants are comfortable with perfect fit. I like the pockets for phone, keys, etc. while walking. I will wear for urban walking as well as trail hiking. The fabric is a little thin and prone to snags, otherwise I would have rated them a 5.

I purchased black first looking for something at the beginning of spring. Fit and comfort were great, washes well, drys quickly. Good for travel. Hot weather arrived in the NW. Ordered a pair in the gray for golf, may order other colors as well. Style acceptable as golf attire. Only feature I see questionable is the draw string at the waist. I removed it from one pair, but have yet to make up my mind on the other.

These pants are light weight, and comfortable in warm weather. They pack great for traveling - not much space needed. The draw cord at the waist, however, is a bummer though. It's especially in the way hanging out front. Is there something that can be done about this? If so, I'd appreciate an exchange. Thanks!

I think I like these. They are very casual due to the nylon type material. They fit great. I fear they might be hot and sweaty in the summer, but maybe not? I wish they were offered in a cotton/canvas material with maybe 1% spandex for ease of movement. I could then wear them to work on casual days, but these are more suitable for hiking or camping, or hanging out at the house on weekends. I guess I just wish they were a different fabric.

I really liked the pant. They are great for summer wear. The fit, though was to big. I usually order XL in pants; however these were flapping in the wind. I have returned them and plan to reorder in L.

I ordered a pair black in that I thought was my size. They were a little big but loved them and they are comfortable. Went to order again in a smaller size and only found in green. I ordered I would love more of these. Please offer in other colors and keep more on hand. I want to get more.

Total comfort - I bought 2 pair. Plenty roomy - I bought L but maybe could wear M, and I'm 5'10" and sturdy. They are versatile for when I don't feel comfortable in shorts, and stay plenty cool for hot weather. More colors would be great!

I love pants that fit at the true waist and was glad to see these pants did just that. But I was worried that the XS, 2-4, would be too small but the S, 6-8, would be too big. I generally wear either a 4 or a 6, 6 in jeans for sure. Speaking with a customer sales person in the local store convinced me to try the XS. I ordered them and found them a very good fit (I'm 5'6", 125 lbs). I love that they are pull on, too. My only quibble is that they come out of the dryer pretty wrinkled. I used my tried and true way to get wrinkles out of pants, etc by lightly spraying them on a pants hanger. They dried without the wrinkles. THey don't wrinkle badly when wearing them, though.

These capris are great when it's hot. It's very light and comfortable. The only drawback is that it wrinkles when you sit down. And wrinkles stay in place. Despite that I'll be wearing them a lot this summer!

I love the weight of these, extremely light weight. Great for camping, hiking, yoga or just everyday wear. The waistband, while comfortable, sitting below the waist as I prefer, is a bit bulky - really my only somewhat negative observation. I love all the pockets - makes a walk, hike, or errands hands-free. They do run quite large. I am always a size 10/medium. After reading other comments, I ordered both a small and medium. The medium felt as if I was wearing a parachute, and were returned.

Fit great very comfortable

These are super comfy, lightweight and cool. Very roomy so don't order up if you're not sure. The fabric dries in a flash (the elastic waistband not quite as fast).. great for summer!

I got these in the dusty olive. Really like the color. They fit well, not baggy. I like the "slightly fitted in hips and thighs". It is hard to find pants that aren't relaxed fit. Would be five stars except for the stretchy tie in waistband. Needs to be a regular twill or fabric tie which I have now in mine. Pants seem to run a little large but after trying M & L I ordered the L. Overall great pants.

I don't find these pants particularly attractive, but they are incredibly comfortable and functional. The fabric is very lightweight, dries quickly, and has good stretch for active movement. They are as comfortable to me as leggings but with a conservative look (they're not going to show off all your business the way a pair of leggings would). I enjoy wearing them for outdoor activities such as gardening, hiking, and kayaking. The cut runs large so I had to send back my first pair and get a replacement one size down.

I wanted to love these crops, but they do run very large. I ordered the XS (wish they had had an Petite XS) and while I will keep them they are a large. I won't order another pair as I planned........

These pants are very lightweight and the wide waistband makes them feel as comfortable as pj's. If you tuck in a shirt not sure how that would look. The zippered side pockets were such a great idea (it is a hidden zipper) keeping the pockets smooth. Don't know if I love the tab at the bottom of the legs. I understand the purpose but when pulled up the tab sticks out a bit and only one side goes up. I purchased this in black. I am 5-4 and 128. The small fit the best for me. Because of the leg being a little wide on me the black looked better than the green. With the side cargo pockets this is a cute crop pant.

These are very comfortable, but I'm exactly average height, according to the CDC at 5' 4". These are shown on the model coming to her knee, which is what I wanted. They hit lower mid-calf to me, nearly to my ankles. If I pull the gather-string to hitch the pant leg up shorter, there's no way to anchor it so it stays pulled, and the other side of the pant leg still hangs down lower, so it's a bizarre diagonal not cleanly straight across like in the photo, and it is still below my knee. I'm handy with a needle, so will just hem them way up, but if I'm average height I shouldn't be feeling like a kid trying on Mom's pants, and I shouldn't have to be looking for petite sizes, which I am more and more, and which aren't available for this product. That's my cranky rant for the day!
