LLBean - 31
Have worn LLBEAN for years. Have been very satisfied with quality and durability.
I like L.L.Bean because of the material they use. ratings of L.L. bean are great. won't buy anything else
I think llbean's Made in USA boots really seal the deal for me. Great quality and is real outerwear for The Great North East!
Great clothes at a fair price.
Brand loyalty
Price and quality
Best style and quality, though all are good.
An original, not a knockoff like Patagonia
they tell you what temps in there catalogs your clothing is good for excellent return policy
Just cuz
I feel as if Patagonia has become wearing the label because it’s “expensive” rather than wearing it because you enjoy the outdoors. L.L. Bean is my style.
I really like ll bean and Patagonia, but if I had to choose one it would be ll bean.
The best
Just a blue collar product. Patagonia excellent product but way too expensive for working class folks.
Love it
Great product
they advertise the temp. readings of there clothing.100% guarantee and ship with return labels.No bullcrap on there 850 down fold lightweight. North don't come close them.
Quality, wearablility, function, warranty, outdoor programs
it is the best!
more function than fashion.
Just love the quality of the products they make...lasts for life
Bean makes a solid outdoor product at auchincloss better price point than the other two brands . I think you're paying for a name when you buy Patagucci or TNF.
Cheep
L.L. Bean lasts for a very long time, and every jacket I've owned from them has blocked wind for years until it's worn out.
It is a more general outdoor style
Like Patagonia,but LL Bean is a better deal, The North Face is worn by people who are sheep. Dressing like everybody else shows no sense of style.
LLbean is the best as far as quality and value goes. They are not based on fads.
Most familiar with LLBean - they have good stuff that lasts.
Best products for dollars spent.
north face is being worn by every non thinking jacket wearer in the country. patagonia is a little expensive. ll bean, high quality at reasonable prices.
My LL Bean outerwear has been consistently good. Regular clothing is hit or miss. My Patagonia experience has been disappointing to say the least. I like the style but the function sucks, especially for the price. I have one North Face piece and it is ok.

saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaddfffffffffffffffffvbsdvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv

Patagonia - 14
After researching both brands & owning several articles of clothing; They seem a little more transparent concerning their footprint on the environment.
Patagonia is also the brand of choice among several people & owner’s of clothing companies. I own coats from Patagonia & The North Face.
Because I've had LL bean in the past and it fell apart immediately! I started buying Patagonia 3 years ago and none of the clothing has fallen apart. As for North Face, I think you are going to know what I'm about to say. It just plain SUCKS!!!!
It's the most expensive but the lifetime warranty is unbeatable
s
Patagonia is a much better made product, and I would rather not be associated to the thugs who wear and advertise -
jkkk
The firtest with the mostest!
Their the best...
Pategonia has generously donated to help protect the outdoors while making great products.
Best quality out of the three
Patagonia simply has higher quality materials in their gear. I've owned product from all 3. Patagonia hands down has the best product of the 3. Hands down. You pay a little bit more. But it's well worth it. The integrity of the product will be there years down the road. Plus their stuff does not go out of style. Lastly I like what they do in giving back to the environment financially, as well as, using recycled materials in making top line products. Patagonia is the winner.
Because I feel comfortable I helping the envionment too, giving back is important
Lots of field work, Patagonia is indescribably better built, lasts longer, is stronger, comfortable and performs (breathes, dries quick, keeps you warm) whatever the task. If you want function over fashion pick patagonia, **** if you want fashion better than all the rest... pick Patagonia.
the yuppies ruined for northface.....ugh!
