Customer Reviews L.L.Bean 28" Explorer Ripstop Pants

My husband loves these pants! Started with one pair, now has five. In three different colors. Very comfortable. Zippered pockets. Washes without shrinking He has difficulty with opening belts. It has an elastic waistline, a button & front zipper Perfect for a 90 year old man!

Nice looking and amazingly comfortable. The perfect travel pants!

I am old with hard to fit short legs. These pants work because I can still get them on and off with only a little effort. The pants too tapered at the bottom are too hard to disengage. Also like the snap back pocket's security. Pants look good enough.

THESE PANTS ARE EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE BETTER THAN OTHERS I HAVE GOTTEN AT LL BEAN.

My son, who is 47, prefers to wear these pants rather than jeans because they're lightweight, more comfortable than jeans, and a bit dressier than jeans. The elastic waist is a plus too. They're versatile, good for gardening as well as trips to town.

I have 6 pairs of these now. Top-notch look and comfort. Only issue is if you have cats - their claws can pull out slubs.

Perfect fit and love the color too! Thank you LL Bean folks!

Nice pants, nice stretch in the waist. Have zippered pockets to keep things from falling out. They feel like they would be water repellent although have not worn them when raining out. I recommend these pants.

Pants seem to do everything well: Boating, hiking, traveling, bicycling, etc.

These pants are super comfortable and have just the right amount of stretch.

Nice fit. Belt loops would be better but the 28" length is not easy to find.

We tried something new and different and love it. Waistband, zippers, pockets and hem all extra well done. Fit is comfortable and look is versatile for casual, sport, work, etc.

The fit, feel, and look of the pants are great. They have a zippered fly too many pants don't come with this feature these days. And waist drawstring. The material is light but the ripstop fabric should prevent early wear and tear. My only complaint: the front (side) pockets. They're a tad too small (as in a tight opening and their depth). And they have zippers, which I like. But with the tight pocket envelope, the zippers abrade my hands every time I reach for my keys. I can live with this, but it's a little annoying. Overall, I'll likely buy another pair or two in the coming months. They make for a nice pair of pants.

Look great! Very comfortable! Wish I could wear them every day.

Wash well. Wish it had zipper. Great safari pants!

Fit to size and very comfortable. wear them all the time.

Some of the most comfortable pants that fit just right Bonus they look great So much so that I bought more

My husband loves these! Nice, light weight fabric but very sturdy. Good fit.

Feel like these will excel through three seasons. Sensible quality construction.

They're really nice pants. There's nothing else to say.

Perfect and comfortable fit. Quite a great buy too!

Awesome stretch pants that are comfortable to hike in

The fabric feels good. The elastic waist plus button closure plus zipper plus drawstrings equals pants that will handle any fluctuations in weight - within reason. The tapered leg is a good look. The front pockets are deep. The rear pocket is not.

Superior quality, wonderful fit, overall excellent rating. Wonderful for hiking and warming up before training.

Nicely made and comfortable. I wish they came in black
