At first glance you will see a historic seacoast town with a working waterfront representing Maine’s roots in a robust fishing community. But take a second look and you will also find a vibrant community of small business owners whose stores, galleries and restaurants represent the true heart of what it means to be a Mainer: hard work, fine craftsmanship and pride in representing our unique state. Maine’s largest city (but still quaint by most standards) boasts plenty of fine art, award-winning chefs and some of the best shopping experiences where you can support independent stores.

Shopping
L.L.Bean was founded in 1912 by its namesake, hunter and fisherman Leon Leonwood Bean in Freeport, Maine. The company began as a one-room operation selling a single product, the Maine Hunting Shoe (also known as duck boots[4]). Bean had developed a waterproof boot, which is a combination of lightweight leather uppers and rubber bottoms, that he sold to hunters. He obtained a list of nonresident Maine hunting license holders, prepared a descriptive mail order circular, set up a shop in his brother's basement in Freeport and started a nationwide mail-order business. By 1912, he was selling the Bean Boot, or Maine Hunting Shoe, through a four-page mail-order catalog, and the boot remains a staple of the company's outdoor image.
