'Maine' is a upscale department store brand in Europe. It is like a Ralph Lauren or a North Face would be here.

Probably because Maine's namesake comes from a defunct French province.

"From Maine" or "Living in Maine"?

Tragic_fallKittery•

Definitely from, though I don't know where he lives now. I think he still calls Maine home. I know the rest of his family does.

Maine aside, is that modern? Looks like an 18 year old boy from the 80's. That is a level of shame on so many different levels.

"Maine Men..." is only the first part of that sentence. The rest is: "...beat up summer folk that dress like this."
