Outdoor retailer L.L.Bean announced that their mobile selling tour will be visiting Marion this November as part of their East Coast fall tour. The solar powered pop-up shop, towed by the famous Bootmobile, will bring the L.L.Bean shopping experience to King’s Bridge Food Park from noon to 7 p.m on Tuesday, Nov. 21.
L.L.Bean’s purpose is to inspire and enable people to experience the restorative benefits of being outside. The Pop- Up Shop will therefore have an extensive assortment along with some of our favorites to help the community of Marion, VA enjoy the outside this fall and winter. This includes classics like our Bean Boots and Wicked Good Slippers, as well as some fantastic fleece, flannel, and outerwear options. Exclusive discounts and special giveaways will be available. Shoppers can also enter the Maine Adventure Sweepstakes on-site for a chance to win a 4-day guided canoeing and camping adventure for two in Maine compliments of L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs (NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Void where prohibited. Open to legal residents of the 50 U.S. States & D.C. who are legal age of majority. Ends 12/23/23. See Official Rules for complete details at www.TheMaineAdventureSweeps.com).
Of course, no visit to a L.L.Bean pop-up shop is complete without a picture with the Bootmobile. The Bootmobile is a size 700 boot on wheels – too big for the Statue of Liberty, but big enough to haul your favorite L.L.Bean items to your hometown.
