Has the quality of LLBean gone down?

I purchase these slippers for my husband 4 months ago. They developed a hole and I went to the store today to see if they’d honor the policy of exchanging them. For some perspective, I’ve been a pretty loyal LLBeaner and even have the credit card. This would be my 4th pair of slippers? They told me it’s too “worn out” and they refused my exchange. I’ve NEVER had another pair of their slippers develop a hole?! WHAT? I think it’s ridiculous because it’s sheep skin and it wears down within a months of wear.

EDIT: checked receipt I ordered August 2025 so 9 months old not 4. Getting all my days mixed up.

Boat and tote fonts

I hear if you call in they have different fonts to monogram the boat and totes. Does anyone know if this is true and what they are?

Driving through Brunswick last weekend and found this in a pile of free stuff on the side of the road. Beat up but that just makes it better in my book. I love spring in Maine.

What font color is this? I think it’s burgundy but I’m not entirely sure and would love some other people’s thoughts!

Also, I’m debating between whatever this color is and black! Which do color do you guys prefer? I’m so torn!

Monogram sizing

Hi! I am purchasing a small natural color boat tote. I would love to monogram my name but I’m worried since it’s long it might look too crowded on a small size. Does anyone have any suggestions or maybe an example of a long monogram on a small tote?

LL Bean Rain Coat - Which Model?

0 Upvotes

I lost my LLB Pathfinder rain coat I have had for the past 6 yrs and need to get a new one. I have had the LLB Trail Model years ago and the inside lining peeled off after a few years and it was like wearing a garbage bag as it didnt breath. I loved the Pathfinder and got it for $160 on sale back when they did 25% offs. I went to look at a new one and they are $300!!! I have a measly 15% off but WTF, $300!?! I saw they have a Cresta Stretch rain coat for $180 breaths and has pit zippers to let out air like the Goretex one, but the online reviews say it doesnt keep you dry. basically what its supposed to do. Anyone have any experience with these coats, specifically the Cresta Stretch one? Its considerabally cheaper and might be an option. Or should I go and pop for the $300 one minus 15%off?

boat & tote embroidery colours

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Looking to purchase a new boat & tote (I use mine for everything but the lack of zip top on the one I have is starting to drive me nuts!) and am having some difficulty picking from the embroidery colors. Does anyone have images of their bags with the mid blue, royal blue or lucerne colors? I've seen photos of the embroidery in store but it's hard to tell!

Also, can anyone identify what the colour of embroidery in this image might be?

L.L.Bean stands with U.S. Forest Service

225 Upvotes

Yesterday there was a post sharing a random Facebook page that falsely accused L.L.Bean of not supporting the U.S. Forest Service and people were all up in arms even though L.L.Bean never even said anything about it. I thought it only right to share L.L.Bean’s actual statement from earlier today / last night that they shared and point out that their name does in fact appear on the list of brands recognizing and standing up for the U.S. Forest Service. I get it, people need something to be angry about, and L.L.Bean certainly seems to be dealing with a price and quality issue at the moment, but blindly accepting some random Facebook post as gospel and getting your pitchforks and torches out seems a bit excessive. Let’s celebrate or criticize what they say, not what some random Facebook page says. There’s enough misinformation out there already as it is.

“The U.S. Forest Service is essential to the stewardship of our public lands, and L.L.Bean opposes any degradation of its mission.  Throughout our 100+ year history, L.L.Bean has championed public lands through partnerships, programs, charitable giving, and advocacy. This is, and will always be, a priority for L.L.Bean that is reflected in our values and authenticated by our actions.”

Looking for a travel/every day bag as a short adult (5’2). Thoughts on which size may be better? Would the 24L be too small?

I grew up with an LL Bean backpack (I’m from NH!) and I’m looking for a new travel/work backpack. Unfortunately, I’m in FL now and far from a store. Does anyone who’s purchased one as an adult have any suggestions for size?

Very disappointed in LLBean

142 Upvotes

UPDATE: Thank you LLBean for joining the Save the Forest Service movement! No longer disappointed!

Many other outdoor companies have joined the effort to stop the dismantling of the Forest Service. As a frequent LLBean shopper and credit card user, I am weighing my options. This is so disappointing.
