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

Fit well. I'm shrinking so had to hitch them up a bit. But they are comfortable and I like the color as well

Plenty of pockets and the pants allow for a wide range of motion. The YKK zippers work well and I haven't had any problems. Usually I have issues with the legs not being large enough, my waist is 34" thighs 24" and calves come in at 16". These pants fit me perfectly. Met a friend at the Flagship store in Freeport and she wanted to hike through Wolfe's Neck Woods State Park afterwards. I found these pants at the Outlet Store and gave them one heck of a good workout, going through ice and mud along the trails. Also, had no issues scrambling over rocks along the coastline. Love these pants.

Comfortable cloth, solidly built, a little narrow below the knee so it doesn't have that big baggy look.

I've only had them a few weeks, but so far I'm pleased with the pants. I like the fact that they have 4 pockets with zippers. They also fit exactly as I hoped. My only suggestion (and this is an extremely minor point) would be to space the two belt loops closest to the snap closure at the front a little farther apart.

I LOVE these pants. I bought one pair in brown and one in black assuming the only difference would be the color. This is not the case. The black pair feel much different and wear much differently than the brown pair. The black pair material is too soft for my liking.

They last 6 times longer than similar pants. Had to return a pair that was too small.

I already own 2 pair of these pants which are unlined. Granted these lined pants are pricey but I wanted a pair that I could wear often in cold weather and would look decent wherever I went. These pants do that. Now they are not super warm but they have worked fine during our present long and cold Buffalo NY winter. They wash easily too.

Got a pair of these to replace my 30yr old Bean trail pants that are starting to look a little old ! Love the size options rather than Sm Med Lg sizes from other outdoor suppliers. The type/placement of pockets is GREAT. Water beads up nicely......Decided to get another pair.

I purchased a similar pair of charcoal gray hiking pants from LL Bean about four years ago. They have been great pants and have held up very well. I decided to buy a similar pair in black. Looks good and fits right. Hope these will last just like the others.

This is my second pair of Cresta Hiking Pants. I'm still wearing those from 2018, and they have many years left. This was another color and, unfortunately, I needed a 35" waist, so had to return them. Because of Covid, they won't be processed and the new size sent me for 4-6 weeks.

Fits great, water resistant, 4 nice zippered pockets. Also bought lined version last year for cold weather

My work requires heaven lifting and contact with leaky items. Also I am not permitted a bag for a phone or other items. The large pockets are perfect and the pants handle all the movements I make.

I wear these to work and my job requires lots of physical activity and many things that can catch and rip garments. These have held up well so far. In addition I have nowhere to put an actual wallet and phone so the large pockets are great.

I have two pairs of these, purchased about 5 months apart. I live in Colorado, and was looking for a pair of pants that I could wear hiking in the mountains that weren't as restrictive as jeans are; these pants fit the bill! The first pair I ordered are the "Alloy grey" color, and on day trips, I noticed that my legs got hot, due to the color in the Sun. I then ordered a "Dark Driftwood" color (khaki-ish), and both pairs are my favorite pants; I wear them most of the time. I am normally a 34" waist, but I recommend ordering a size 2" smaller. My second pair are 32's, and these fit fine, whereas the first pair I need a belt; trivial detail for an amazing product. I think I will order another pair, eventually; these make great everyday pants, too.

My husband always liked the Cresta hiking pants as they were lightweight for warm weather. So when the cold weather was approaching, he was happy to see the flannel lined pants. Not too heavy and gives a nice extra layer for colder weather. Bought another pair!

These are hands-down the best pants I've ever owned. Unlike a lot of synthetic fabric pants, these are actually breathable so whether you are hiking, traveling, or just working around the house you won't be sweating your...legs...off. They also have just the right amount of stretch to them to make them a great choice for traveling. I drove across the country in these bad boys and was comfortable the entire time. In addition, I did some hiking in the rain and while my head and upper body were soaked, the water literally rolled off of these pants. If you have to wear pants while you're working from home, these would be a great choice.

I bought the black for my husband first. He loved them so much, I bought him the gray and khaki color. He doesn't get very excited about most clothes, but he really like these pants.

They are the most comfortable, well fitted and functional pants I every have.

Lightweight for great summer weather, wrinkle free, and always looking crisp. Roomy but not baggy.

I love these water resistant pants, with several zippered pockets, which are light weigh and comfortable. I wear them all the time in the LA weather, which is often warm.I wish the dark blue color would return but I like black.

Wanted something just a slight bit more winproof and damp proof than the original crest a pants. Keeps the dew off and wiind out On cool summer nights and mild fall days. AND they look good too.

The quality of these pants far exceeds Columbia. I'm glad I found them.

Purchased these for my husband. He has 3 pair that he wears exclusively (different colors) because they are lightweight and cool. He likes the extra pockets, too -- handy for letting him multitask and keep his hands free. They allow him to bend with ease. This is our second round -- had to get a size down because he's lost weight.

I now have three pair of Cresta Hiking Pants and I'm pretty sure these are the only pants I'll wear the rest of the hot weather, which in Texas means for quite a long time to come. They're comfortable. The multiple zipper pockets give me a way to spread out what I carry and provide easy access too.

Great stuff. All I can say is great stuff
