Lands' End operates 16 Outlet and Inlet stores in four states: Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota and New York; plus three Outlet stores in the United Kingdom and one in Japan. The Lands’ End "Travelers' Inlet" store, at the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport, offers a selection of full-price catalog merchandise. Outlet stores feature Not Quite Perfect® and overstocked items.
Lands' End was an "early adopter" of the Internet, launching its Web site (www.landsend.com) in 1995. Today, the U.S. site offers every Lands' End product, including an extensive overstocks section, where excess merchandise can be purchased at discounts of up to 75%. In addition, Web sites have been launched in the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, France, Ireland and Italy. A separate Business Outfitters Web site offers company incentives, rewards, gifts and group apparel.
Sears purchased Lands’ End in June 2002, and introduced merchandise to 183 Sears stores in ten markets five months later. By fall 2003, all 870 Sears full-line stores coast-to-coast featured Lands’ End best-selling merchandise for the entire family.
