Before Noah Kahan makes his first-ever appearance on Saturday Night Live on Dec. 2, he’s helping you prepare for the “season of the sticks” with his first-ever collaboration with outdoor gear brand L.L. Bean.
As we ditch our swimsuits for puffers and parkas, this exclusive line of apparel will help keep you comfy and warm using the clothing brand’s insulating material. The collection, which is fittingly titled “Stick Season” — just like Kahan’s 2022 breakthrough album and its top 40 Billboard Hot 100 title track — features a mix of apparel and accessories to help keep you bundled even after the first snowfall hits.
Kahan took a pause from his world tour (which you can snag last-minute tickets to here) on Friday to do an unboxing of his favorite pieces from the cozy collection, which includes a quilted sweater jacket, flannel and anorak.
“A big part of my music and a big part of my philosophy with making music is … nostalgia and L.L. Bean has always been something that’s nostalgic to me,” the “Northern Attitude” singer said in the official campaign video.
That’s not the only thing that’s been keeping the Grammy-nominated artist busy either — he performed a cover of Olivia Rodrigo’s song “Lacy” on BBC’s Live Lounge on Thursday (Nov. 23). This comes after Olivia Rodrigo’s cover of Kahan’s single “Stick Season” received such high praise.

Maine Guide Lightweight Merino Wool Field Shirt
