What customers say:
The Stretch Briar Jeans are durable, comfortable, and well-suited for outdoor activities like hiking and hunting. Many customers praised the pants' ability to protect against thorns and briars. However, some noted the pants tend to run small, so ordering a size up is recommended, especially if layering. Taller or longer-legged individuals may also want to consider a "tall" size option, as the pants can be short-waisted or have a short inseam. Overall, the jeans are functional and well-suited for rugged outdoor use, as long as the right size is selected.

Great pants! Very protective, functional, durable, and attractive. My only negative comment would be that I'd prefer a fabric "at the top" that was more similar in color to the leg

Right choice

I'm glad I chose these pants. I own several different brands of "brair" pants. These are the most comfortable and they are very rugged as well.

Disappointed

Unfortunately, these jeans aren't available in a petite size. They would have been perfect for my activity in the high desert sage brush, but would need to be shortened by at least

I would buy 2 pair of these IF they had a 32” inseam (or “tall”). But they don’t. And I’m not wearing ankle pants.

Snug at first but stretch a little with wear. Comfortable and they definitely protect legs in heavy cover. DO order one size larger than regular size for proper fit.

Run really small
LL Bean should note in the description how small these run. I ordered my normal size and they wouldn't even zip. The jean material is a pretty dark wash. But workable. I'll sadly

Everyday Brush Pants
(Order a size up from your regular size). Otherwise these are great pants; comfortable, sturdy, good looking. They are best for hunting, dog training, or a walk in the woods.
