The verdict
Fit
Kids' relaxed fit, true to size. Heather grey is a forgiving neutral for active wear; full leg opening.
Quality
Kids' line construction is modest—stitching is adequate but not reinforced for extreme durability. Expect wear after heavy play.
Is the price fair?
At $125, fairly priced for a branded kids' sweatpant. The lower cost versus adult versions reflects materials and sizing, not quality jumps.
Best for
Parents buying comfortable loungewear or after-school basics under the recognizable Aviator Nation brand.
Care
Wash warm frequently; kids' sweatpants see heavy rotation, so regular washing with turning inside-out extends life.
What owners report about Aviator Nation sweatpants
Owner reviews are polarized. The consistent praise is comfort: reviewers describe the sweatpants as exceptionally soft and cozy, and some long-time owners say their pairs still hold up after years of wear and washing. The recurring complaints are quality control at the price — dye bleeding onto other laundry, shrinkage, fabric that stains easily, and sweats that feel thinner than expected for pants running upwards of $160. Hand-made-in-California production is the justification owners most often cite for the price, while critics conclude they are paying mostly for the look and the label.
- Strengths
- Genuinely soft, cozy fleece and distinctive retro styling, with some long-term owners reporting pairs that survive years of regular wear and washing.
- Watch out for
- Dye bleed and shrinkage in the wash, fabric that stains easily, and thinner-than-expected material are the recurring complaints, made worse by the high price.
- Sizing
- Fit reports vary by style — some pairs are described as running large and others snug — so owners advise checking each style's cut and reviews rather than assuming one consistent size.
