SOUTH WINDSOR -- L.L. Bean, the outdoors outfitter famous for its Maine Hunting Shoe and annual blitz of specialty catalogs, announced Tuesday that it will open a 30,000-square-foot store in South Windsor within two years.
The store will be L.L. Bean's first in Connecticut, and it promises to further shape what is emerging as a highly competitive retail environment among major outfitters, with Cabela's and Recreational Equipment Inc. (REI) also coming to the region.
