Customer Reviews L.L.Bean BeanFlex Standard Fit Jeans in Gray Wash

Pros - Very comfortable in movement. Love that these sit below the waist rather than at the waist. One of the only styles here that does that. Used to only buy jeans at the "other" company that starts with the letter "L", great satisfaction with them until they discontinued all models that sit below the waist. Too bad because they also allowed choosing inseam down to the quarter of an inch during ordering. Really like the flex aspect of these jeans for comfort. Cons - This style seems fairly thin for jeans. We will see how they wear, but they seem more for casually going out for errands than for going to work (or working in the yard) and needing substantive jeans. Time will tell. I do like them, but am left wanting for other jeans for other situations.

Great fitting, comfortable pants. one suggestion, the zipper needs be a 1/2 inch longer.

Nice and flexible medium weight jeans with multiple color, waist & length options. Mine with regular use & variable conditions were prone to knees wearing out (converted to shorts, no issues in crotch). Will definitely buy again.

Like the fabric, color and style. Would have preferred the regular standard fit vs. standard athletic, but these were on a good sale.

comfortable but a little too stretchy. could almost use a size smaller

The stitching on the outer leg seam is a problem. I have 4 or 5 pair and the stitching comes apart. From the knee up is the problem.

The jeans are well made and a perfect fit but strangely they had a weird smell of what we characterized as "moldy". Took almost 10 washes to get the smell out.

Overalll comfort for jeans, that I was looking for. They seem to run just a bit on the small side however.

Great pair of Jeans. Very comfortable and look great too!

I wasn't sure the stretch fabric would work, but it does. The trade-off is they're not as substantial as the Double L jeans I normally wear. Still, on the whole, I like them. I do NOT like the two belt loops closely spaced on either side of center in the back; this is my third pair of LL Bean pants with this "feature"; all of them have been extra-cost versions of regular Double L products. I prefer a single belt loop centered in back; it's how I hang them on the coat tree. Also, I prefer 7 belt loops-- three on each side plus the one in the rear. I have a pair of jeans like that, from before I lost weight. They're going to Good Will because I can't wear them anymore. Not sure if the 7 belt loops is because they're older, or larger. If I have to order a 34 waist to get 7 belt loops, I'm out of luck.

Ordered what I thought was the same style by referencing the model number but the stitching was different on the back pocket and the fit is not the same. Close but I may do some shopping befor I order from L L Bean again.

This is a good product that gives room to move and be comfortable while wearing. Ordered one par in 36x36 as they are long enough but now are no longer available. Please continue to provide this standard fit pat for tall men. Can't see what I am writing so hopefully typos will be fixed.

These jeans are comfortable and easy to wear. They wash well, but the light color has a slight odor that doesn't seem to go away. The darker colors didn't have an odor.

I hadn't noticed the streaky dye patterns in the catalog picture, but they're pretty obvious in the jeans themselves. When I look again, yeah, those things that look like wrinkles are actually irregularities in the dye. Well, ok. Next time I'll know to be more suspicious going in.

Pricy but the quality is really good and fits perfectly.

Very comfortable and true to size. Could have been me but they set off the scanner at the airport going and coming. I like them.

Well made although waist size was a bit wide. Prefer jeans sitting higher in the waistline but thats probably just an old mans preference

Finally able to find a pair of jeans that fit. The fit and feel are good.

Your pants fit me perfectly and are the perfect length. I love them. However your woman's shirts and and fleeces and other things with arms are too short by at least two inches, and I usually have to order a men's small , but I like the women's colors better. Please lengthen the women's arms on all your products and I will be a happier female customer.

Husband's comment: This is my first time having flex jeans. The fit is good and the fabric is more medium weight (not heavy). They are quite comfortable! I got the second to darkest ones, but they seem to be fading faster than 100% cotton ones.

Good-fitting jeans, soft and comfortable, but the smell is very annoying. Seems like something a person shouldn't be inhaling.

Feel great. Wash great. Look great. Maintain great color.

I have been wearing beanflex jeans for a few years. I like everything about the quality & comfort of these jeans but seems the price has gone up considerably vs when I ordered them in past. Having said that, it's a really good product

Love the fabric, easy to move in. The rear pockets are much larger than normal which was unexpected but not necessarily bad. Size was fairly accurate.

Decent stretch jeans, sizing accurate, front slash pockets need more vertical, increase spacing on back belt loops.
