I own more than a handful of L.L. Bean items. My long, puffer parka and Gore-Tex-lined duck boots (now just $109) have endured nearly a decade of brutal upstate New York winters. It's the kind of longevity the brand has become known for (aside from the fact that it's synonymous with the coast of Maine).

If you've been waiting for a good time to invest in L.L. Bean for yourself, now's the time to do so — the brand is hosting a massive sale that's slashed the price tags of outerwear, footwear, outdoor equipment, and more. We've seen savings as great as 64% (specifically on these summer-ready sandals), but the site is offering "Two-a-Day" daily markdowns, adding to the clearance section at 6 a.m. and 2 p.m. Eastern. 

If you don't want to dig through the hundreds of new markdowns, however, we narrowed down our favorite finds to just nine deals, listed below.

Mountain Classic Crossbody Bag: was $19 now $16 @ L.L. Bean
While the savings on this crossbody bag are slimmer than those on other items we're eyeing, it's still worth a mention thanks to a strong, 4-star rating and versatility. Crafted from the same lightweight, water-resistant nylon fabric as the brand's beloved Mountain Classic Anorak (now down to $49 versus $59), this pouch is designed to keep your everyday essentials close, whether you're out on a hike or running errands.  

Women's Lakewashed Slides: was $69 now $24 @ L.L. Bean

Women's Lakewashed Slides: was $69 now $24 @ L.L. Bean
Available in sizes 6 through 11, these subtle wedge sandals can easily be slipped on to dress an outfit up or down. We love that these are constructed with leather, from the nubuck straps to the soft, padded footbed, especially for the deeply discounted price tag. "Soles look like they will last," one reviewer writes. Another adds, "they were just as pretty in person as they were ... on the website."

Insulated Bean Canteen Water Bottle: was $30 now $24 @ L.L. Bean

Insulated Bean Canteen Water Bottle: was $30 now $24 @ L.L. Bean
Save 17% on this color-block water bottle. The double-walled, stainless steel vacuum insulation promises up to 12 hours of ice-cold hydration. "Ice lasts two days in there!" one enthusiastic buyer reveals. Tap the speckled rope looped at the top to tie it to your hiking bag or carabiner for the on-the-go sipping, freeing up your hands to grab rocks and roots to hoist yourself up to views at the peak. It also fits comfortably in most car cup holders.

Men's Classic Supplex Sport Shorts: was $39 now $29 @ L.L. Bean
There are a number of versatile men's shorts on sale, but none offer as many in-stock size options as the Classic Supplex Sport shorts. (If you wear a size small, however, we'd like to point out that the Sea Blue dock style is down to $19 from $44.) These 8-inch inseam trunks are a great pre-summer buy thanks to a quick-drying nylon construction that is UPF 50-plus.

Men's Sherpa Hybrid Fleece Pullover: was $99 now $49 @ L.L. Bean

Men's Sherpa Hybrid Fleece Pullover: was $99 now $49 @ L.L. Bean
When the temperatures start to rise, it's generally a great time to get a good deal on colder-weather gear. And this sherpa fleece pullover is a prime example. Now 50% off (in just the Mountain Red and Dark Hunter green color combo), this classic L.L. Bean quarter zip features an extra chest pocket with an abrasion-resistant overlay. 

Women's Katahdin Insulated Pullover: was $99 now $59 @ L.L. Bean

Women's Katahdin Insulated Pullover: was $99 now $59 @ L.L. Bean
This weather-resistant hoodie provides not only an extra layer of warmth but also protection from rain, sleet and snow. Reviewers wear it the most in the early spring and late fall. Like the Anorak, it's boxier, so consider sizing down. (Thankfully, the XXS, XS and S in the Sugarplum color are 39% off.) 

Women's Fleece Full-Zip Jacket: was $99 now $74 @ L.L. Bean

Women's Fleece Full-Zip Jacket: was $99 now $74 @ L.L. Bean
For a more traditional outer layer, this slim fleece jacket is now 24% off in the Deep Coral colorway. Available in both standard and petite sizing, 7,000-plus positive reviews tout this jacket is great to grab on for all-year-round warmth. 

Original Bean Boots: was $139 now $99 @ L.L. Bean

Original Bean Boots: was $139 now $99 @ L.L. Bean
The brand's flagship item, these "Bean" duck boots are now 28% off. Sewn by hand in Maine, these are still made as they were over 100 years ago. There are a range of design options to choose from, including 8-inch heights and this shorter, 6-inch style. If you haven't tried a pair yet, you can rely on these for mucking through everything thanks to a waterproof exterior, rubber bottoms, and chain-tread outsole to prevent you from slipping and sliding.

Our senior fitness writer swears by this packable jacket, noting it's "the most versatile piece of outerwear in my closet by far." He also describes it as lightweight, super-cozy, warm, and stylish-enough for a synthetic puffer. " I live in a Primaloft Packaway for roughly six months of the year (not literally), and when I'm not rocking one, the jacket packs down, as the name implies, into its zippered chest pocket for easy stowage," he writes.
