The base layer pants are praised for their lightweight, soft, and comfortable fabric that provides good warmth without being bulky. Customers find the pants versatile, suitable for a variety of activities like hiking and travel. While a few noted the fit can be odd or they may not be warm enough in very cold weather, the overall sentiment is highly positive.
I usually wear light weight leggings under my sweat pants or jeans from fall to spring as I am "cold blooded". I had never purchased any from Bean so thought I would try a pair wit

Only had a few months, worn infrequently and got hole in the fabric in the middle of the thigh. Was not using for camping or anything, just not great fabric.

Not my favorite
Size Purchased: X-Large
Fit: True to size
The waistband isn’t very flexible, which, for me, makes for an uncomfortable fit on days when I feel bloated.
