Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Plus Size Vista Camp Pants Crop

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!

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!

I bought these pants in 3 colors, but I was very disappointed in the quality of the material of the pants. They look flimsy and cheap and come out of the dryer wrinkled. Not at all like the previous ones I bought from LLBean.

Too long for me. Wish you had petite size for short people

I love the Camp Pants and really wanted to like the crop version. However, they were so long that the drawstring when fully pulled up raised them barely past my ankle. I normally wear Petite (at 5'2") and these only come in Regular length. Returned, sadly.

The color (toasted almond) did not match the picture in the catalog - the pants were much darker. Also the bottom sides appeared in the catalog to have a way to be tied up, but I didn't see how this was possible. Fit was okay. I returned them.

I just bought these and am disappointed for 3 reasons. None of the pockets are big enough for my phone, that should be a no brainer. And there is a weird flare at the hem and if you pull the cord to tighten the legs,there is no place to tuck it. I'm keeping these but not buying another pair.

The style and fabric are great with comfortable waist band - will work well for travel. But disappointed in the fit: seems so baggy. Didn't look baggy in the pictures so I took a risk and ordered. Maybe I'm between sizes (medium/size 10 in other LLB pants), but just feel swamped in the legs. Also wanted the pull-up with a side cord to add a little interest, but neither side will stay up - it just slowly slides back down. I'll probably knot the cords if I want that look. Will keep, as too much trouble to send back and try another size. Might work for all day car travel trip.( Maybe old, but fit and walk huge dog miles and miles each day.)

The material was good. The pants were not true to size and very large. I returned them. The fit was not good for a plus sized person.

I love the design and the fit, but the material starts to pill very soon. This is the case with all of the pairs of Vista camp pants that I own. I wash them inside out, but it's still a problem. I get the pants for free because of my LL Bean credit card, but I would not buy them'

Lightweight fabric feels cheap and snags easily and results in very flimsy pockets with things that easily fall out of so be careful about anything not in the zipped pockets. The back pocket is the comfiest place to keep a cell phone, but I've had it fall out multiple times when hurrying through a crosswalk.

They seem nice, but are extra large for their size category. Waiting for smaller replacement
