Where would we be without LL Bean and Land's End? I've been to LL Bean in Freeport several times, including once in the middle of the night. Amazing place. Trivia note and true story: in the early 90s, the second in command at LL Bean was a guy named William End. Land's End hired William End away to be it's new CEO. The headline in the WSJ read "Land's End Lands End." End [:)] of story. Unfortunately, End didn't last long at Land's End; he didn't produce the change they were looking for.

me neither - I have an ancient pea coat from LL Bean plus a really old pair of Bean boots (great) and an old Harris tweed driving cap from Land's End that I wear when the weather gets really nasty here. Fortunately that's not 
too often.

No time, since I'm leaving soon. There are no ski/sport stores close by. The closest is REI in Atlanta. Normal stores here don't stock "real' winter 
clothes since nobody knows what they're for and won't buy them.
Had I thought of this earlier, I would have ordered from Land's End or LL Bean, as I used to do. After 30 years in the south, I have dumped almost all of my cold weather gear except for an old down jacket from Land's End. 

There's a reason I moved south! I don't do winter.
