The verdict
Fit
Plush lining adds bulk, so expect a slightly snugger through-the-knee fit than unlined leggings; true to size otherwise.
Quality
Plush lining is aimed at warmth rather than technical performance, in keeping with the brand's budget kids' line for cold-weather basics.
Is the price fair?
At under $11 this is a strong value for a lined winter legging.
Best for
Cold-weather layering under dresses or pants for young kids.
Care
Machine wash cold and tumble dry low to keep the plush lining from matting.
What owners report about Eddie Bauer pants
Long-term testers report Eddie Bauer's Guide Pro-style pants hold up well: one reviewer logged over 50 days of wear across two pairs with no pilling, snags, or tears despite bushwhacking and garage work, and called the 94% nylon/6% spandex fabric accurate in fit with a well-placed rise across 26 size options. The DWR water-resistant finish wears off quickly and needs reapplying. Forum users warn the line isn't consistent across models: the cheaper Rainier pant runs a looser fit with roughly a 2-inch difference in waist sizing versus the Guide Pro at the same labeled size, plus lower quality.
- Strengths
- Owners who put heavy trail and work use on the pants report the nylon/spandex fabric resists pilling, snags, and tears even after 50+ days of wear.
- Watch out for
- The water-resistant DWR coating wears off quickly and needs reapplying, and quality isn't consistent across the line — the cheaper Rainier style runs looser and lower quality than the Guide Pro at the same size.
- Sizing
- Sizing runs accurate with a well-placed rise across a wide 26-option range, but expect roughly a 2-inch difference in waist fit between the Rainier and Guide Pro pants at the same labeled size.
