Rated 5 out of 5 by lexykiya My favorite pants
These pants are so cozy and comfortable, and they look great too. I have them in four colors, and would buy more if they offered light gray. My favorites are the classic carmel and light khaki colors. I also have the chocolate brown and black. They are great, too; I just prefer the lighter colors.
The pants launder great and don't require ironing. I am 5'7" and buy medium tall from LLBean. I think it's the perfect length. It's not too long, but is long enough to allow for slight shrinkage. In the past, I've had to donate many of my cords (other brands) that shrunk in length after repeated washings. I have had my LLBean cords for a few months now, and have not noticed any shrinkage after repeated washings. They are so warm and nice in the cooler months, but never seem hot when I'm indoors.
The original fit is great. If your waist is smaller than your hips and you like pants that fit at the waist, these pants are the best.

nice pants, but i found the waist/hip ratio to be off for me. the size 12 fit in the waist but the hips were big, and the size 10 fit in the hips, but the waist was small. and i have a fairly dainty size waist!

I love these cords! Purchased one pair a few weeks ago and my second today. Nice fit and very comfortable.

Rated 4 out of 5 by MizPicky Beware the black color!
I have ordered these pants several times in black and in other colors. About two years ago I ordered some black pants and was disappointed that the black had a noticeable brown undertone. It was particularly evident when the pants were next to something else black, shoes, for instance. I called the color to the attention of the saleslady, and she agreed with me that the pants looked brown. Now, two years later, I tried again. This time the same thing happened, that is, the pants looked brownish rather than true black. I will return them as the brown becomes more prominent as the fabric ages. The fit and style of these pants are great; I just wish I could get them in real black.

Rated 4 out of 5 by fairedescourses ZIPPER IS TOO SHORT
Compared to my previous corduroys of this size and fit, the zipper is at least an inch shorter. This makes it harder to slide the pants on and off. I can't think of a good reason to shorten the zipper other than to cut manufacturing costs. Otherwise, they're great pants. They fit well and are well made with a substantial weight of corduroy. Perfect for cold weather.

I was pleasantly surprised as to how well they fit. Added warmth for the cold winters. Like the high rise!

I bought the navy cords because I have the two other pair in other colors and they just fit great. Easy to wash and care for. Will buy more in other colors.

Rated 1 out of 5 by JanWyo Sized incorrectly
I bought a pair for my mother (a size 6) and for myself (a size 8) and both pair were so much too small that I assume the pants were not sized correctly from the manufacturer. Hopefully the exchanged pants will fit.
