VON MAUR TO OFFER L.L.BEAN APPAREL AND ACCESSORIES COLLECTIONS
Von Maur Department Store and L.L.Bean have teamed up to bring the iconic outfitter’s merchandise to Von Maur stores across the country. Starting this fall, the company’s stores and online channels will begin offering the latest assortment of L.L.Bean favorites for men, women and kids, including select outerwear, clothing, footwear and accessories.
The two private, family-owned companies have each been in business for well over a century. Building upon their shared commitment to unwavering quality, world-class service, and deep care for customers and employees, the renowned retailers will work together to offer an exciting mix of mainstay and in-season L.L.Bean products for Von Maur shoppers. This includes classic and popular items such as “Boat and Tote” bags, “Wicked Good” slippers and moccasins, as well as a wide array of fleece, flannels, jackets, activewear, sleepwear and more.
“For more than 150 years, we have prided ourselves on the company we keep,” said Jim von Maur, president and fourth-generation leader of Von Maur Department Stores. “With L.L.Bean, we share a kindred spirit grounded in offering great products delivered with great service. We are thrilled this iconic American company will offer Von Maur shoppers a new way to outfit their family’s active lifestyle through their high-quality and reasonably priced products.”
“Wholesale partnerships continue to be an important part of how we make the L.L.Bean brand accessible to customers across the U.S. and advance our purpose of enabling people to experience the restorative power of being outside,” said Charlie Bruder, Vice President of Wholesale at L.L.Bean. “As we evaluate potential wholesale partnerships through our brand lens, Von Maur’s retail expertise, values, and commitment to customer service made it feel like a natural fit for L.L.Bean.”
