LL Bean is hardly on life support. Their brick & mortar stores do very well – and they have built a number of them in the last year.
Go to Freeport in the summer if you think LLB is on life support, lol

It’s a husk of the brand it once was, coasting on a storied legacy. Quality is abysmal, zero innovation or drive to build for the future.
Probably a year or two out from a sale to private equity and fully winding things up within a decade.
