I like these pants to wear in cold weather. They are of a good weight material. The fit is slightly loose on me. I am 5' 4" and weight 145 pounds. I ordered a six because of the favorite fit. I usually wear an 8 in other L.L. Bean pants. They do wrinkle slightly but I can live with that. I like the fact that the waist just doesn't squeeze me. They are very comfortable but I would like to see more dark colors. The lighter colors seemed to show wrinkles by the end of the day.
The length is good, I am short 5'2", the fit is good as long as the pants don't stretch...however I am concerned about the bell shape at the bottom. I haven't decided if I'm going to keep the pants or not.
