I was given a pair of LL Bean boots when I was your age and am still wearing the same pair 27 years later.
Sophie Cahill Why
Still wear my 2 pairs one set insulated one not. Insulated ones I sent to LL bean 2 weeks ago for re-sole got them back 10 days later.
Oh forgot to mention I’ve had those since 1977.
How often do you wear them? Mine lasted 6 years until the side flex area started cracking.
How often do you wear them
You must wear them almost never
Funny....I wore a pair of bean boots 30 years ago while I was in college. I ended up donating them to the Salvation Army store, at the time they had gone out of style (in my mind). Now...here I am again waiting on my new pair of Bean' boots, haha. Might have to dig my flannel shirts, baggy old tattered cable knit sweaters and my ripped jeans and cotton thermal long-johns out, haha. I knew this day would come when the styles of my youth would sorta come back around again, haha. And at the risk of sounding like a "creepy old man"....no your head is not weird and round, it's totally perfect- there's probably a young man out there around your age who thinks the same:-)

Thank you so much for this video! I've been starting to think about getting a pair of duck boots for next winter. I live in Canada so we have snow from late October to April and I've heard that they're really great for the winter. I too was wary of getting the LL Bean ones because of duties and conversion rates and I've seen the Sperry ones locally, so I was thinking of buying those instead. I'm glad I watched your video before I bought them. I'll definitely be springing for the LL Bean ones now. Thank you!
great review. You must be the only person who discuss the laces...a wonderful addition. I have found the comfort of my 3 lace (short) Bean boots was greatly increased by adding a supplemental insole. I use the green SuperFeet, but there are lots of brands out there. The insoles help take up some of the overall volume, and provide a bit better arch support. My first pair of Bean boots are 14" tall and over 40 years old and going strong with their third set of bottoms. I expect this new pair will likely last as long. At age 65 I, unfortunately, likely wont.
Thank for your review . I had to return my Clark’s duck boots after 2 months because one of the boot’s rubber was starting to split. Then the Sorel duck boots was one more narrow than the other and read reviews after my purchase and several people complained of the soul separating. So I finally purchased LL Bean boot 6”. I hope I don’t have issues with them but I love how they look.
I love my duck boots I’ve had them for like 3 years I think and they’re still super good. I just got some LL bean ones and there great too
I've had LL bean boots for several years now. They are the the best. They are pricey but in the US you can replace them. So basically I paid once for a lifetime supply (just got my third pair via replacement at no cost other than shipping)
Manny Garcia thanks for sharing I was really on fence about getting now but I totally will
Omg seriously??
In 2018 they changed they return policy to no longer allow a lifetime guarantee that sucks
Glad I saw this review. I was looking at Sperry vs Bean boots.
I thought you said your name was Anime lol
Thank you so much for your review! I was just about to buy the sperry boots but I was still in doubt so I read reviews on the official page and several commented about the sole not lasting and your video confirmed my decision. I also only want them as rain boots, but a little more stylish than your regular kids rubber rain boot so... I'll look up to other options. Thank you for saving my money
I have the exact pair of sperry boots and the same thing happened to mine! Except much worse because I kept wearing them. I can bend my foot and you can clearly see the split on the inside of both boots. I contacted customer service though and they’re sending me a new style of boots for free
i have had the sperry black ones and i love them sm
I really enjoyed your review and love your Irish brogue. I love your country, too, and visited County Cork (backpacking) in the late 60's. Anyway, I have a pair of LLBean duck boots but I dislike the collar as it is not padded. If I can get LLBean to affix padding in my collars they would be first class; and that side zipper on the Sperry's would make them awesome.
If they're digging in at specific spots try skipping different eyelets and lacing patterns! Can totally solve the problem
I really enjoy how well "saltwater" sounds in an Irish accent.
Ll bean by far but ll bean just discontinued lifetime warranty , because people bought them at yard sales an got new ones
Absolutely correct. Even now you have a full year to return any item - seems to me that if you haven't found any defects in that time then you git what you paid for!
This video helped me pick out my boots. Thanks!!!
I have the 8" Thinsulate/GorTex model. I bought them SEVENTEEN years ago and they're still as good as new and become more comfortable each year as the leather softens up over time. I grew up wearing bean boots so these are my second pair. I'm about to buy a third pair as I'm handing my 8" down to my teenager and he LOVES THEM.
Thank you SO much for this video! I purchased the Sperry duck boots and later in the evening I watched this video. It turns out this is a reoccurring problem with the Sperry boots! I returned them and ordered the L.L.Bean boots the next day! Thank you!
So glad that this video helped!
Thanks for sharing. I'd expected much better quality from Sperry. Will get the LL Beans.
Great review!!! I got Sperry's last year but this year it'll be LL Beam. Thanks!!!
AnnaMae Thanks for the review, I too was thinking of LL bean vs the Sperry........It will be LL bean for me.
Have you thought about Timberland wheat boots? The direct injection models have been quite waterproof for me
Oh man I should have read reviews before I bought the Sperry brand ones yesterday. :( I will just have to pay attention for when/if mine do that.
I got a pair of sperrys on clearance at $59, I went half a size down because my regular size which is 7.5 was awkwardly big and would fold too much on the outside when walking, the 7 fitted me perfect and didn't have that problem when walking. I'm thinking that might be what causes the boots to crack if you don't down size.
Great review! Also, LL Bean has a lifetime warranty, so I doubt you would have to worry about any cracks in the rubber of those! So disappointing about the Sperry boots.
ll bean actually changed to a 1 year warranty
The warranty was clarified NOT changed....it's been misinterpreted since day one
I have a men's pair of Sperry's, they started leaking through the thread somewhere within a year or less.
hello thanks for your video, i was going to buy sperry but was not sure if they will fit me. Im uk 5 -sometimes 4.5(was goint to get 7.5). You said your ones are 8 US are they fitting ok or are a bit to big x thanx
Some of these ignorant comments on here amaze me. Why cant people just focus on the topic at hand, which is the review of the boots!!! Anyway..... GREAT video!! This was very helpful and I appreciate you posting this. I was deciding between these two brands as well, and you've helped my decision. My bean boots are OTW :)
One question - how long did it take you to really "break in" the boots , where the leather wasn't stiff?
Hi! I love the sweatshirt you are wearing. Where can I find it?
whats your nail color!
Great review AnnaMae !!!!!!
USA L.L Bean is the only way to go for duck boots! fantastic observations young lady
Thank you for this review . Those duck boots are expensive , they are definitely out of my budget.
If you have smaller feet you can save money half price in youth size I wear a 71/2 in women size and get a 5 or 6 in youth size I paid half the price too 😊that was for sperry
Very helpful! Thank you!
@AnnaMae Love to see some videos on any Irish handmade boot makers. Im not familiar of any.
I only got sperrys bc they were temporary and I wanted to wait for my feet to grow then I could get the bean boots
My daughter wanted Sperry’s for a couple years. I gave them to her as an early Christmas gift. I hope hers don’t split but they are a fashion shoes for her. I don’t really like the style but if I was going to purchase some for fall I would buy the LL Bean. Thank you!!!
For the L.L. Bean boots, are they any good at keeping your feet warm? Do they also have the lining?
KCJOHN08 you can pay extra for the lining. It’s not a lot though
You can get Thinsulate lining but it's NOT much and I definitely wouldn't called them insulated.
Regarding the Sperry boot, you did nothing wrong. It’s how the boot is built. I saw a review on L.L. Bean vs. Sperry. The gentleman cut both boots in half and revealed the build of each. L.L. Bean is definitely superior. I made the same mistake with Sperry… so, this past Monday, I invested into L.L. Bean boots thanks to your video and one other. Thank you for sharing. I’m glad you did.
Thanks for sharing! Very helpful
I love the LL Bean over the Bass and sprerry duck boots. :)
Schnee's makes excellent duck boots. (They call them "Pac Boots".)
Could you please do an updated ll bean boots review?
this video isn't even a month old, do you mean in the future?
I needed this
Oof... I’m actually getting a pair of sperry boots today... a lot of girls wear them every day at my school and I haven’t heard one complaint yet. All that I know is that from watching this video, if they split, I could either try returning them, or see if super glue would help. As for the soles... I wear mine out pretty fast too, but I do mine pretty crooked. I’ve heard of using hot glue to put lines and dots on the bottom to give it some traction, so if I start slipping I might try that. I’m honestly not extremely worried though cause I sadly have really small feet, and they’re going to stay that way, so I have to wear kids sizes, which is only $70.00 USD plus tax.
I get what you mean, for me I just didn't see the point in paying so much money for a product that was not very durable! Although I could have tried to fix it with superglue I just think its a little crappy for a product that was €120.00. Its been a little while now and my LL Bean Boots are working out much better :)
AnnaMae K yeah, that actually is pretty crappy, I’m just glad that you found something that works much better
Can we get an update on the beans?
thank you!
I just got sperrys with memory foam comfort inside. Love them and I'll definately need them most of the year as i love in rainy WA state
Thanks for the run down. I’m thinking of buying a pair for my wife and was wondering if I should splurge the extra $ for the Bean’s. Now I know
Do it, I have a set of Maine hunting shoes (now called bean boot) from 1977.
Bean Boots all the way. Be aware that the Bean Boots have a bigger shoe size because they were originally designed for hunters and for wearing thick socks. Read the info on the website or speak with customer service to get the right fit.
Anna Mae Pilkington?
Very useful video! Thank you :)
Great video!!
Sperry offers a the duck boot design I want in womens..but not mens I dont want 6 holes high laces I want something I can slip on easier not spend 10minutes unlacing lacing opening up. Womens are made to slip on and not as high
LL Bean is the STANDARD.
I also have the eight inch because I’m 5’10
Thanks lots. 😁
Did you spend some time in Scotland? Your accent is a mix of both American and Scottish.
She said she was Irish. Geez
Hi just wanted to tell you beans are better
Your hair is fine. Let me know when you make a flip flop review
Have a terrible suction sound from my sperry duck boot anyone have that issue and have a solution?
Well if you wear the Sperry’s for a long time they’re obviously going to have wear and tear . Bean boots have the warranty that’s the only reason they’re better cause they’d get wear and tear too 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Oh boy I just canceled my purchase of sperry boots they were 104 for sperry vs 160 for LL BEAN I rather pay 55$ more then have wet feet
Mastercodein don’t know where you are buying sherry boots because the speedy boots go for 70-80 about. LL Bean are 140-160.
Hello 👋. I understand your frustration here. I want to give you some options. Have you reached out to the company? I would, especially after spending so much money. It’s an investment. I feel you may have gotten a bad pair. I haven’t had any problems with mine and I’ve had them forever lol
L.L. Bean were designed for wool boot socks to fit. Get a decent pair of socks. For Sperry they are for boats and wood decks, not street wear in bad weather. So you bought Sperry for a purpose they weren't designed.
For boat decks Sperry offers boat shoes. As the boots look like the L.L. Bean boots, there is reason to suspect that they were built to rival L.L. Bean and as such they are inferior. There is an in depth analysis of these on YT: czcams.com/video/U3G1Pkbjt-U/video.html
I'm a Doctor too. Trauma Surgeon. Where do you practice? Great video...
She said dancer not doctor. You're obviously not an audiologist
I'm 4'11 and I love the tall boots :) they look so lovely and feel so good
I'm all about the taller boot, love the way they hug my calves. I received the Bean Boots for my birthday this year and love the thickness of the rubber. My mom has a pair of Bean boots and a pair of Sperry, she wears Sperry around the house, but prefers the Bean boots for out and about.
Great review of the Sperry. As you stated you need some time in the Beans before you can honestly speak to them. Keep up the good work though!
$100 boost shouldnt break or split
I just received my LL Bean duck boots this morning and mine are the ankle boot. Clearly stated to order one size down which I did. I've been wearing them all day inside with heavy socks and they are extremely comfortable. I'm going to Scotland next month and thought these would be good. Your video was very informative except that it was distracting to have to see you fiddle with your hair. Thanks though. Bean boots are quality and you do get what you pay for and, luckily, mine were on sale.
I like my sperry best
Sperry's are cuter imo
Are any of you boiis hunters? Try these L.L. Bean Boots on when you're putting some dinner on the table. They're meant for hunting anyways.
What's a "boiis"??
My ll bean didn't even last 2mth I guess cause I'm pingon toed
My Sperry's were $60.
Hi
go Sorel
Bean Boots are way better.
I have two of Sperry ones. I do not like them. The second pair squeak terribly. So annoying.
Yes but didn't you have the Sperry's for years I mean no footwear lasts forever
jodi welch brechts shoes
sperry boat shoes you cant loose
laurie shermans cruise
ll bean boots are still built as a tool with a purpose, sperry's are built for fashion.
also, if your bean boots are worn out, you can ship them back to LL Bean to get resoled.
I'm team sperry! I have both pairs and the sperry s are much more comfortable, look more attractive on the foot, not hard to get on your foot, and are not clunky! Have NEVER had a problem with leaking!
ANIME
Why do you you clap your hands when you talk?
It's endearing... I like it.
Those are some ugly booths... 😂
Get to the point already! Blah.. blah.. blah..
Can I have your Sperry duck boots
I only made it through three minutes of hair flinging, millennial based ramblings and turned it off. Ugh...
you were not expecting that based on the thumbnail you clicked on? 😂
