Profile

OUR COMPANY:
We believe the more time you spend outside together, the better. That’s why we design products that make it easier to take longer walks, have deeper talks and never worry about the weather. It’s like our founder always said – being outside brings out the best in us.

OUR HISTORY:
From the birth of the boot to road trips in our king-sized Bootmobile, a lot can happen in over a hundred years.

SOCIAL IMPACT:
In 1912, when Leon Leonwood Bean prototyped the first Maine Hunting Shoe, he didn’t set out to build the company that L.L.Bean is today. He was an avid outdoorsman, focused on creating problem-solving gear and apparel for likeminded hunters and fishermen. The success to come was a result of good business sense, an unwavering commitment to customers, and a belief that out there – among the thick forest trees and rocky coastlines – is where we find our best selves. We strive to embody this belief everyday through our ongoing commitment to our employees, our partners and our social impact efforts.
