Rated 3 out of 5 by MomforQuality Durable but big
My 10-year-old has a 28 inch inseam and a 25-26 inch waist. The waistband cinching helps them to stay on her, and the size 12 pant fits her in length. However, I wish they weren't cut quite so big. She used to be a super slender child, now she's regular-sized with very long legs, but these pants look a bit baggy and big on her. I wish LLBean would offer slim sizes for the tall, thin girls. The quality is great, the fabric is durable, they launder well, and if only the fit were better, I'd buy pairs in every color for my very tall daughter.

Rated 1 out of 5 by luckiestmomintheworld So cute! Bad fit
Adorable but just don't fit. The horse pants were so cute but I wish they came in slim sizes - even with the adjustable waist as small as it would go they just didn't fit right. Very sad to have to return them but I'm afraid by the time the waist fits the length will be too short!

Bought this as a gift for my pre-teen niece who loves horses. She loves the pants, and says they are cute and comfortable.

Tough comfortable everyday pants for my ten year-old tree-climber. They look good too - as good as much more expensive pants we have had. We have had several pairs and despite hard use they will be handed down to my younger daughter.

The adjustable waist on these pants are great. They don't bunch too much to make the pants look pleated. Will definitely be on all my back-to-school shopping lists.

My daughter adores these pants. I just bought a new pair to replace some I bought two years ago that are too small. She likes classic, simple, preppy, rugged type clothes (she wouldn't be caught dead in the stuff with sparkles that they sell for girls at some stores). These are perfect for her, good quality, good fit, and she loves them.

These are great pants for my tom-boy girl. They are comfortable and looser fitting, unlike department store girls pants. The pants did shrink in length after two washings, which was a good thing for us, because I would have had to hem them. So count on some shrinkage in the length. My child is 55 inches tall and weighs 88lbs, and the 12 is a perfect fit after washing; length just to the ground in the back. If your child is particularly tall, they may end up a bit short.

Rated 5 out of 5 by FunAtTheFort good quality
My daughter wears these to school once or twice a week. They are soft, comfortable around the waist and have held up well to washing. You wouldn't have to iron them, but they can look a little wrinkled if you don't. We will buy another pair!

My daughter loves these pants, I did find that I needed to go up a size for her as they tend to get tight after several washings. These are great for hand me downs, they last a long time.

I compared these to the old twill pants and the sizing and quality was the same. They did shrink in length a little but still look nice. My daughter can't wear jeans to school so when she grabbed these on a weekend I knew they passed her strict standards!
