yourourist trap! Although the staff is well trained and polite, it does not excuse the overpriced, low quality of their merchandise. That, is not to say, that they have poor quality across the board. The LL Bean duck boot is still constructed to the same high standard as always. However, there are several other boots sold throughout the USA that are of the same quality, for quite a bit less money. As for their Home Goods and clothing; you can find a greater variety of better products, at a fraction of the price at Walmarts. Now, If you're one of those people who just have to wear a designer label "on the outside" of your clothing, and don't mind paying a premium for the privilege, then LL Bean is wear you want to shop.
