Customer Reviews L.L.Bean BeanFlex Straight Leg Favorite Fit Jeans in Stonewashed

I have bought LL Bean favorite fit Petit size 12 jeans for years and loved them. In the past two years I have returned several jeans because the cut was too big in thighs. Now this pair I can't even button and it is more like a high rise than favorite fit. I kept hoping the fit would improve now I don't know if I will ever try to purchase LL Bean jeans again. Are the jeans sold online the same as jeans sold in the stores? Very disappointed.

I was looking for a light weight pair of jeans for summer. When I received these I inspected the jeans and found the inside fabric was all pilled. I didn't even try them on because I knew it would drive me nuts, so I sent them back.

Way too small! I'm a 10-12 so I ordered the 12 and couldn't even come close to zipping the pants. Also, the pants were way too short for me. And beyond skin tight. Definitely wasn't a " comfort fit".

I always wear a size 10 llbean pants, these fit everywhere except the waist seemed at least ONE size smaller, I could not even button them!

I was hoping these would fit like my bean flex jeans from last year but sadly they were too small. I probably needed a plus size (I order the 18) but needed the length (no medium tall in plus size). Just going to keep wearing the old ones til they wear out!

Returned them - they did not sit well on my waist and were not comfortable. I am 5'4"

Bought a pair last year and liked them so I bought another. They do not fit the same and are significantly smaller.

Love the fit until I went to button the waist, SO Small. You'd have to have a barbie style waist to wear these pants

I ordered 2 size 8's, having recently grown out of my size 6's. What I received were two pants labeled 8, but one was a 6. I sent it back and received another. It, too, was a size 6 labeled size 8. I waited too long to notify LLBean of the defect and now they tell me I am out of luck. Very disappointed.

I have these Favorite Fit jeans size 6 - love them and wear them all the time. Bought another pair in a darker wash. The pair that arrived today are NOTHING - not even close to my original pair. The size is complete off - the style is NOTHING close to the pair I own. If there was one thing you could count on with Bean it was consistency. No longer. To add insult to injury, I found out I have to PAY to return them! Very sad. They wouldn't let me give zero stars.

I was looking to get jeans without stretch. I didn't read these were stretch and when I put them on they like all other stretch jeans for me slipped down. Returned them.

Let me be clear. I love these jeans-when they were the right size. Ordered a new pair in darker rinse. The sizing is completely off/too small for new jeans. I physically compared to my older pair, and waist was 2" different, the leg widths were 1/2" or more different. I also ordered a pair in Petite to use as cropped jeans. The new Petite were sized like my old jeans (just shorter as expected). I hope this quality issue is fixed because these are great jeans.

Returned pants because the fit was off. Way too small waist although I've not gained weight. I've been a small/size 8 but not in these pants.

The product came with a price tag $10 cheaper than what I paid online. That's why I returned them. Why would an online purchase be more?

I had previously bought two pairs of these jeans and loved them. The fit was perfect, the fabric comfortable. I decided to order a third pair as a backup and verified the fabric composition was identical to the earlier jeans. It was the same fabric but the fit was completely off. I could hardly get my leg in them and sadly returned them. The only difference I could detect was their place of manufacture--the earlier jeans were made in Indonesia, this most recent pair was made in Mexico. I don't know how size standards are maintained but this was a huge difference.

I have ordered 8 Petite many times from LL Bean. In the past this pant has been a great fit for me. These jeans run VERY small. I could barely get them on.

I've owned 4 pairs of these jeans and loved them. It was simply time to replace a pair. I ordered the same size as always. The jeans that arrived are substantially too small. When I compare them to the jeans I already own, they look like a completely different pant. I am returning them and will not order again. You had a steady long term customer for these but not any more.

I have purchased these jeans before and have been very happy with them. I usually wear a size 10 and have lost some weight so my jeans have been falling off me. I ordered a size 8 and 10 to compare and they are both way tooooo tight. I am returning both and will look elsewhere. Dang, I loved these jeans.

I agree with those whom had size issues. Bought a 6 which is what TrueSize recommended. I had also just bought size 6 in a different style of Llbean pants and shorts. They fit fine. The legs were perfect, but the jeans were 1 to 2 inches away from being able to button. They will be returned but I am afraid if I go up in size the rest of the jean will be too big.

I bought a pair in the spring of 2021. Loved the color and fit. I wore them a couple times a month and washed them according to the recommedation. The fabric seemed fine but the last time I wore them I noticed that a fiber in the middle of the upper leg had broken. It was not at a seam but rather in the middle of the fabric. Considering the frequency of wear and the price I am disappointed with this item and would not reccomend it.

I have a real problem with LLBean's lack of consistency in sizing. My favorite jeans - from LLB - are size 12 regular. The straight leg jeans I am evaluating I also ordered in that size but they were way too long and way too tight. I sent them back and LLB acknowledged their return.

ordered another pair as I love the fit of these, but what came was completely different in cut, size and fabric. very disappointed. Customer service refunded me, but now what.

I have several pairs of these jeans & others from LL Bean - always fit well - NOT this time. Too small in the waist AND too tight in the legs. Very disappointed.

The legs on these jeans are very slim. After washing even moreso. I'm going to return them.

These are too tight and clingy. I wore 14 petite in the now-discontinued 1912 98% cotton jeans. These have a lot of synthetic fabric. Where is a mature woman supposed to find jeans that fit? These are a huge disappointment and I returned them.
