Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Petite Ripstop Pull-On Capri Pants

I would have given these 5 stars if I didn't have to iron them

I like the fabric, but these run a bit on the small size. I ordered L (14-16) and should have ordered XL even though I generally wear a 16 very comfortably. I'm at the top end of Large on their size chart. Also, had they fit, I feel they would have sat lower on my hip than I like. Description says they sit low, and they really do!

I like this summer pant a lot, the fabric and length are great. I do prefer a higher waist which is why I took a star off. I'm sure I will enjoy wearing them in the summer which is fast approaching here. Fabric is sturdy and not swishy. I thought they were ripstop but they are 98% cotton, which is good.

Nicely fitting and attractive. I recommend this and have ordered two more with different colors.

A little snug but needed that as the large was too baggy in the thigh area. Looks great!

I read the reviews so expected the loose fit at the waist. The drawstring makes them work okay, but they still slide down. The fabric is said to be 98% cotton, but it feels somewhat slick and is noisy; it's also stiff, but maybe will soften with wear. The front pockets are so shallow that my keys fall right out. But overall, I like the pants.

I have several of these. They aren't long enough though. I ordered an LLBean camp pant which isn't the same, much thinner than I'd like so know that although this pant is heavier, it is short. I need a longer in the same weight pant.

I like these pants quite a lot although I still don't know what "rip stop" means. I will try them on once more to make a final decision on how they look and determine what I have to wear with them. They are made very well and I like the color,"rose wash" but may find it difficult to find a matching shirt. I guess I just won't worry about that too much. All-in-all a good piece of clothing.

It's comfortable. Easy to care for. I normally take a petite but since there was none available, I thought I'd try the regular. It okay but I think I'd still prefer the fit of the petite.

Tab and snap on one of the rear pockets was broken Of course it was disappointing, and too much trouble to return. Been wearing your garments for years.

These are great capris EXCEPT for the fact they are really wrinkled and probably need to be ironed after each wash. Since I hate to iron, I wear them wrinkled and try not to notice. The fit is great and they are roomy enough to accommodate the knee support sleeves I wear.

These capris are made of sturdy material and have a very comfortable fit. I was looking for everyday kind of capris and these fit the bill.

These were a good purchase for me. Wished I could of gotten them in a lighter color, but getting them in black was not a deal breaker. These are comfortable and roomy. I have 2 big dogs that require a lot of exercise and I choose these pants for that job. I would purchase them again.

Fits pretty good, but a little big at thighs. The only thing I did not like too much is that I should wash them before wearing because the color will bleed. I bought the pants in navy. They should come pre-washed.

I just placed another order for these. They fit perfectly -- so comfy. The only thing that prevented me from giving 5 stars is that the fabric feels a little odd, like crinkly paper, and takes a bit of getting used to. Still, very comfortable, and the bit of stretch helps them feel comfy when standing or sitting.

Bought these to replace an older style of capri no longer available at LL Bean. Very pleased with them - comfortable, not too baggy. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star review is the rivet on the leg sometimes hits on my kneecap when I cross my legs.

I really like these capris--they are comfortable & have a nice "live-in" feeling once you've had them on for a little bit. Nice stretchy waist. Two things that I'm less pleased with (but which aren't deal-breakers) are 1. they're a little longer than I like capris to be, and the snap at the bottom of the leg is useless. 2. On me, they are big in the belly and small in the butt. I don't know if I have a weird body or what. That's why I say they're more comfortable after you've worn them for a bit, so the butt stretches out. (I hope that you're not going to edit this out for the word "butt.")

I love the quality of the ripstop pull-on capris but the sizing is way off. I wear a 6 in pants and ordered the Small (6-8). It is way too large. I have at least 6 inches of extra room in the hips. Also, I believe the item was described as having slim legs yet the legs are so wide I could almost fit 2 legs in one. It would be better if you made this garment in a single size rather than a size range.

I now own three pairs of these great capris in three different colors. I am impressed by the good quality and attention to detail that goes into this item. The cotton fabric is soft and comfortable. This is the type of merchandise I expect from LLB. The only improvement would be a slightly lower price.

I like everything about these capri pants, the fit, comfort and looks, however, be prepared that it requires ironing. That's the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.

Based on previous reviews, I ordered a size smaller than I usually would. Instead of an XL, I ordered a Large. The pants fit as well as they can, given the somewhat wonky waist design. Pants sit too low on waist and are too loose. You have to be careful not to push too far down in the pockets or you might embarrass yourself in public. Love the fabric, very comfortable in moderate temperature, good for yard work, flattering leg cut. I would order another pair if pants were redesigned to fit higher on waist.

I was looking for some easy care capris. These are just ok. I feel like there is too much fabric in the thighs and around the rear. Also I cannot cinch them down with the tie to fit snugly around my waist so after a couple of hours they are kind of falling off me. I tried a small (I am certainly NOT a small) and they fit perfectly but I was afraid they'd shrink so I kept the mediums. They are a bit wrinkly when they come out of the dryer but I wear them without ironing anyway because they look a little wrinkly after wearing them for a bit. The snaps at the bottoms save the pants for me. They fit tight (but not too tight) once they are snapped on the furthest snap.

I have been disappointed in the wrinkles, since I've been spoiled by other LLBean pants, but they fit fine, and they feel good. True to size, I'd say.

The legs are not quite slim.
