We have been L.L.Bean customers for many years, ordering from its much anticipated catalog. A highlight of a cross-country camping trip last year was shopping at an L.L.Bean outlet store in Maine. Products we have purchased include flannel sheets, towels, waterhog mats (the best), Boat and Tote bags, toiletry kits, L.L.Bean boots (the best, I wore them for years), slippers and many clothing items.
Unfortunately, due to the tariffs put on Canadian exports to the U.S., the threats to Canadian sovereignty and the treatment of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky by the U.S.’s current federal government, we will no longer be purchasing L.L.Bean products.

We believe it’s important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It’s a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others. Read more...
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
By joining the conversation, you are agreeing to our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is found on our FAQs.
