15 L.L. Bean Items Mainers Own That Might Be Older Than You

L.L. Bean stuff lasts forever, and here's proof.

I recently took my L.L. Bean barn jacket to Goodwill. That got me thinking...

My Beans barn jacket had to have been at least 30 years old! It was in great shape - just not MY shape anymore. It was sad departing with such a memory-filled jacket.

When I got my first Beans barn jacket, I felt like a real Mainer. I wore that thing to anything and everything. I loved it.

Here's where my brain got to thinking. If I had a Beans barn coat in pretty good shape, what do Mainers have from L.L. Bean that is old and they still use?
