Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Primaloft ThermaStretch Fleece Pocket Tight Pants

The pants are very tight at the edge of the ankle, making them difficult to put on and too short for long legs. The fabric and color are great!

I was surprised to see the fabric was pilling after only a few wears. I washed the pants only in cold water inside out with a different pair of fleeced lined pants and let the pants air dry. Disappointed, especially for the price.

I have worn out my older no-pocket version of these tights. They were my favorite pants. I purchased the exactly same size in the pocket version, but this pair did not fit the same: falling-down-large in the hips, tight in the lower leg, and not long enough. I washed them in cool water, no dryer. I am sad to send them back.

Not windproof. Cold wind goes thru fabric and seams. Not warm, as advertised. Fit was great Size P2, 105 lbs, age 78

I paid $109 for these pants. They have cheap seams instead of finished in the inside. Since the pants are tight against you, the rough seams are always rubbing. I could have bought cheap pants anywhere, but I wanted something well made and comfortable.

Light weight n fit well. Would've been nice pant but they peel after washing. Very disappointing for the price I paid n they peel after first wash n before wearing

These were some of the most comfortable pants I've ever worn, so soft and cozy. However, the amount of pilling from one wash was insane. Sending them back for a refund.

The pair that I have had for years and live in, are a much better quality than the pair I just ordered. This fabric is "spongey" and not worth the price. If you are used to the previous quality, you will be disappointed.

I receive these for Christmas. Less than 1month of wear, the tights are piling at inner thighs. I just wear them occasionally after work. I also have burgundy color that is doing the same. I wore them out in cold windy weather-toasty.

Loved the Quality of these pants but am disappointed in the fit in the thigh area. Fits perfectly in the waist, hips, butt, and lower legs. Puffs out on my thighs almost like an old-fashioned pair of jodphurs. Love the pockets, and Love the warmth, but the excess bagginess on my thighs will make them something that I will choose not to wear because of how they look. I ordered PXL and I am just 5' tall and the best inseam for me in a legging is usually 26". I liked the blue better than the fig because of how many things I can coordinate them with, but I will most likely be returning these. I could recommend them to a friend with longer legs than mine, but not to someone as short as me.

They are very warm and fit well, however the right pocket is already developing small holes after using it for my phone for less than a week, and the fabric on the backside is pilling. I expected much better quality for the price and should have listened to other reviews.

I am not happy with these. The plus and why 2 stars is they are really warm. I wouldn't buy them again due to how the stretch and have already starting pilling around the entire pant not just the crotch area. Not worth $100-110 in my opinion

I rarely give feedback that is negative, I like to be very thorough when I submit feedback in order to help others. (I read all feedback before purchasing typically and I appreciate it.) I was quite surprised by these pants. I waited forever for them to go on sale and was thrilled to get them! ($53 w/ some BB's). Immediately I was struck but how exterior fabric was stiff and scratchy like it had been washed multiple times in harsh detergent, on high heat....really surprising. But the determining factor for me returning them was the inside stitching where the wide waistband was connected to the lower portion, it was EXTREMELY scratchy like it was sewn with fishing line! It was unbearable. So very disappointed. I order a ton from LL and the quality is superb! My only thought is that it was somehow a return that had been washed and dried on high heat multiple times and then somehow got back into the inventory....completely disappointed. I also want to note that I am familiar with this type fleece lined winter pant, I have the Spyder version and the Aventura Mogul pant and something was WAY off with these....hoping it was just a fluke. ????

I had to return, I could hardly get them past my ankles they were so tight there. Also the material was not stretchy of forgiving. I really wanted to like them, great details with side pockets etc. I am 5'8", 135 lbs bought a size M

I buy a pair a year bc I've loved them so much and live in them! 2020 I bought a S M/T and they were VERY short - defective. Due to covid, had to wait to return. I returned and then ordered a new pair- NOW the legs are SO tight I can hardly get them on. SO weird - I have skinny legs. Makes no sense. Consistency of products have been circumspect. I'm tired of going to the stores (not particularly close) and having to explain. Their systems are archaic so returns are never easy and, frankly, the manager in Dedham, MA seems perturbed about dealing with them. Not lovin' LL bean right now...I'm going to try to call and hope they will resolve...

I wore these pants a couple times after work while I sat on the sofa for a couple hours. I did not use them for exercise. They were washed once inside out, in a mesh laundry bag, delicate cycle, and hung up to dry. Within the first two times of wearing them they started to pill all over the entire pants, both front and back (prior to washing). Please see photos. Very disappointing for a product from LL Bean in general and particularly when it costs $120.

These were not flattering and I could tell the material wouldn't wear well. I wanted them to work.

I am so disappointed in these slacks ! After one week of wear they pilled terribly. The quality is poor since they have fuzzy balls all over the slacks. Do not purchase!

I bought a pair of these pants about 2-3 years ago and absolutely love them. I bought another pair a few weeks ago and had to return them because one leg was not constructed well. Very disappointing. I still wear the first ones I bought.

I spent $115 and they pilled after the second wearing. I returned them. I have no problem paying for quality but i thought I would get 2 years. They did not last 2 weeks.

$100 for synthetic leggings that instantly pill.....

These are comfy but a little too big/baggy for a base layer. I am returning bc the drawstring broke on the 3rd wear. I will exchange for the no pocket prima loft pants which have served me well for at least 3 winters.

The pants looked warm but quality was not great so we returned them. After shipping them back, LLB let me know that it would take "a few weeks" to process the return. So now they have both the pants and my $100. Not a nice way to treat your customers. If it takes a few weeks to process a return in early October, I can't imagine what the holidays will be like. LLBean used to be the gold standard.

I couldn't wait to get these leggings, with the phone pocket they were ideal for a ski vacation. However, after only about 5 wearings (just lounging, not skiing), they have terrible pilling and I'm too embarrassed to wear them again. Will attempt to return. Also, the waistband is too large compared to the bottom part of the leggings - they're not as stretchy as I would like.

I was so excited for these, until I tried them on.
