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

I usually buy XS clothes from LLBean, I ordered a 4 since several comments said the jeans run small, they run really small and the waist is really tight. I had to send them back. If I were to reorder them I would go 2 sizes up. I guess if you are a very thin teenager theses jeans will fit, but if you are the average American woman order a size or two up.

I am a solid size 4 in every brand of pants I own. I purchased a size 6 based on several reviews. They don't come close to fully zipping and totally unable to button. I've sewn professionally for many years and know the smallest mistake in cutting or sewing a seam can change the size of the finished garment. You may want to see what's happening at the factory.

I found these jeans stretch out considerably and I should have bought a size smaller

Waaay too small. The closures barely waved and smiled at each other!

The waist was so small and tight. I NEVER had a pair of pants fit the way that these fit. I had to send them back a second time.

These jeans fit like leggings. I could hardly zip them, and they were very tight and uncomfortable. I had to return them. I had ordered size 4 (my usual size in jeans).

Strong mildew smell. Very offputting! Sizing ran small.

I have worn 1912 jeans for years, now they seem to have been made redundant. I thought these might be a reasonable replacement in favorite fit .Ordered size larger than usual and they seemed to be more of a skinny leg jean and the amount of Tencel made them feel greasy . Returned. Good thing I still have a few pairs of 1912 stashed away.

Used the LL Bean True Fit to get an accurate size and it was so wrong. Pants were the right length and that was the area I had the most concern about ordering. The waist was far too small, most of my pants are a size 4 and that was what true fit recommended and they didn't even meet never mind button.

These are made of 22% of plastic feeling fabric. Feels like a scuba wet suit. Yuck! I accidentally ordered thinking it would be like my favorite fit lined jeans which are 99% cotton

Be warned the sizing of the same exact pair of jeans you ordered previously, and that you were so pleased with, could be wildly different when you order another pair. That's what happened to me. A new pair of jeans in the exact same size and style I ordered and loved and STILL WEAR we're so much smaller that I couldn't get anywhere near closing, much less zipping. Returning them!

I returned it because for the price I don't expect flaws in the material that can rip open later.

The sizing is a disaster. I wear an 18W or 1X, and every other pant I've bought from LLBean, EXCEPT their jeans, no matter the style or color, has sizing that is WAY off! Very short-waisted, TIGHT in hips/thighs, and forget getting them to zip!

returned this jeans, did not fit properly, too small

I take a size 12 but these were too small. Couldn't even close them..

Does anyone make jeans the shape of women? Won't order again because of return shipping.

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.
