They've been sold out for weeks now.
If you try adding to your cart, you'll notice it's not available.

yes i got small and it is still a bit big for me, at 6" 170 lbs!
it's noticeably bigger than my waxed version which is also small.
i'll give it to my dad.

I got a small and at 6'2" 180 it's a little big on me. I'm going to soak it in piping hot water to shrink it. I really can't believe LEC doesn't have XS. On a similar note, I bought the Land's End down jacket and it is suprising slim, especially in the arms.

So I went to my local Sears that has a Lands End Canvas here in Redmond, WA to check out some of the new season's stock in person. Boy, was I disappointed. First of all, they shrunk the LEC section by about half since last season (guess it's not selling well there?). Secondly, they hardly had anything on display -- they really couldn't I guess since the section is now so small. Tried to locate a pair of the new straight chinos in my size (33x34) but they didn't have a single pair in my size in any color. Lame. All of the shirts I wanted to see in person weren't there. The service was pathetic. There was a guy stocking shelves in the LEC section who clearly saw me flustered about not finding my size but refused to acknowledge my existence and ask if he could help. Just a terrible experience all around. It's probably the last time I go in there -- I'm better off just using their website.

Sears and as a consequence, LEC, has to be one of the most dated and depressing shopping experiences I can imagine. Really wish they'd spin LEC off and give it a proper brick n mortar presence.

Agreed. It has potential to compete with J. Crew especially given the price point.

They just increased the price of many sale items. The field jacket went from $9 to $26. :(
They need to get rid of stock from 2010/11 not keep them around. There are too many fits as it is.

The Sears near me* didn't downsize the Canvas section, but the floor space went from half women's half men's to 80% women's. Bummer.

*where I work.

Just returned a pair of the new Comer Chino 608.

They are too slim for me, actually more like skinny. If you are into that, i don't think you will be disappointed, they are skinny. For comparison, I own a pair of the slim fit jeans from last season and they fit fine, both were size 32/30. I am going to order a pair of the 628 and see how it compares. I couldn't bend over without discomfort.



TL;DR: The 608 Slim were too skinny and I had to return them, much slimmer than the slim fit jeans from LEC last season.

yeah these are the slimmest they have ever offered.

They are already tight for me around the thighs but have room in my tiny ass calves.

The new LEC slim fit chinos look so stupid.
Why can't they make a solid consistent fit?
