Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Cresta Hiking Pants, Standard Fit

Purchased these pants for my hubby for our trip to Europe in fall 2019. The fit is good, comfortable and works well for hiking and also all around touring. With a nicer shirt, the pants were dressed up. With a t-shirt, perfect for hiking. Over the years, they have held up well, wash well and still look awesome. Ordered a new pair for him for Christmas for our next overseas trip. I recommend these pants.

Very comfortable lightweight pants. Looking forward to wearing them for hiking and biking next summer.

Very comfortable. Fit well. Plenty of pockets. I highly recommend.

We live in Florida and like the light weight fabric. I have a pair in woman's and gave these in men's to my son. They fit him well, and he is quite pleased with the gift. Don't change a thing!

My husband is fussy about pants with pockets and these pants fit superbly and cell phone fits nicely. He is pleased!

love these fit wonderfully. Need more 36" inseams, jeans and other pants.

Ok. I thought I ordered a 36x30 but the pants were labeled 36x34. Not good. But I wasn't about to return them. I brought the pants to a tailor on Commonwealth, and asked her to hem them to make them 30s. She measured them. They measured 30. I tried them on and they fit like the older exact same model I showed her. Exactly. We looked again. Yup. 36x30. I guess I just got lucky. Are others mismatched? I'm happy with them. Plus I got 10% off list.

Pants are warm in below freezing temperatures. The fit was good-- I normally have issues with the leg length. Looking forward to good service from them!

Great pants, I own about 5 pair now. Very comfortable with a great fit. I would own more but they are little pricy.

I have three pairs of these pants. Perfect fit - true size. Excellent for outside activities and general casual wear.

Excellent! Stylish and functional. I also really like the carbon navy. Quality company with unsurpassed customer service! BTW, I appreciate that it comes with an option for a longer inseam.

Great fit and very comfortable to hike in. While not waterproof, they do shed a consistent heavy misting nicely.

Very comfortable, easy care, light weight, though wish there was a way to cinch the waist a tad without needing a belt or interfering with the front snap (no drawstring in the front).

Great light weight plants for traveling. If you like to travel light and keep your phones, wallets, cash and passports secure with out the risk of forgetting a travel backpack or fanning pack, these pants are great. Lot's of well located pockets with zippers. The material is light and cool. Great for slight profile in your suitcase. Size is true. I got a 36, I would have preferred a 35 (my best waist size for full cut fit), but this works and I can still get by without a belt.

I really like the material in these, pants. It is water repellent and the stretch makes them comfortable to wear all day long. I like the idea of zippered rear pockets, but find they snag when opening and closing the zippers.

Great fit and very comfortable. Wearing them as golf pants in Wisconsin. Love the water resistant feature.

Exactly what I ordered. Excellent fit and very comfortable. I have worn two prior pairs of these pants for years for walking, biking, and kayaking. They are great.

Usual LL. Bean high quality product. Have ordered many over the years and have never been disappointed. I am 6-4 tall and have difficulty finding any pants longer than 34". But LL Bean offers 34 x 36, perfect for me. As usual the telephone order person is friendly and cheerful adding a little bling to my day.

Ordered a 32 waist 29 length (5'7" and 135 lbs) and it was a perfect fit. Very comfortable and light weight.

Great in the wind and rain! Wearing them out in the Camino!

Fit great, move with you and have useful and well placed pockets.

These were bought as a birthday gift to my husband and he likes them. We wash them and hang to dry. They are light weight and dry quickly.

Fit was good. Zippered pickets just what I was looking for. Stretchable fabric very comfortable.

True to size - comfortable fit. Really liked the color choices.

I bought 2 pairs for an overseas vacation that included walking tours of cities, hiking in a rainy climate, and day trips in small open boats. The pants were comfortable in all of these settings and also on our various flights. They shed light rain and salt spray with ease, and mud from the hiking trails was easy to spot clean. In terms of fit, these pants run a bit loose at the waist and long in the leg, and I was glad that I was able to try them on in a store. Overall, these pants were great for both travel and a variety of outdoor activities.
