Here’s why: 🔍 Why It’s Considered Rare: 1. Made in Korea Era This tag and origin indicate production from the late 1980s to early 1990s, before L.L. Bean shifted most manufacturing elsewhere. Vintage “Made in Korea” models are no longer produced and are limited in circulation. 2. Model Number: J252 “Small” Specific model numbers like J252 are often tied to discontinued designs. This small frame daypack version is less commonly seen than standard or larger models from that time. 3. Vintage Styling and Colors The two-tone gold/olive colorway and simple utility structure (no modern mesh, minimalist straps) reflect classic outdoor aesthetics from the golden age of L.L. Bean gear. This bag has been stored in a AC unit, great pristine condition.
