Introduced as Bean's Ice Carrier way back in 1944, the Boat and Tote was billed as a bag made of builders' canvas for hauling ice "from car to ice chest." Today you can spot our iconic tote doing heavy lifting everywhere - from the grocery store to the beach, to the library and commuter train. Tested to hold up to 500 pounds, it'll carry more than you can carry. We promise. Available in four different sizes with a secure zip top, it also makes a fantastic travel bag.

  • Spot clean.
  • Double-layer base.
  • Overlapped seams are double-stitched with nylon so they won't rot or break.
  • Heavy-duty 24 oz. cotton canvas.
  • Handles tested to hold up to 500 pounds.
  • Reinforced flat canvas bottom.
  • Add a monogram for a personal touch (or the perfect gift).
  • Handcrafted in Maine since 1944, one tote at a time.
  • Natural color with contrast-tone handles in your choice of lengths.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not the quality it used to be I have one of the LL Bean Old totes, and the new one fails in comparison. 1. thinner material/less body -The tote constantly collapses (the old one stands firm. 2. no pocket (was it so hard to add one?!). 3. Stitching doesn't seem as tight and or as strong as before, but time would tell about that part. Positive - it is big (got the largest) and it does have a zipper. Overall - disappointing.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect size I bought this about a month ago and I’m so glad I did! I was debating between the large and medium for my every day diaper bag and at first thought the large was too big when I got it but after using it and it being full all the time it’s the perfect size! It doesn’t hurt my arm to carry and fits under my stroller perfectly!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Long handles for the win I was in between handle lengths and went with the long. I love the long handles for toting around my tote! The medium size holds the perfect amount of stuff and is a perfect everyday bag

Rated 3 out of 5 by from No pockets ☹️ Well constructed bag but very disappointed that there are no pockets inside the bag. I have another nearly identical zip top canvas bag from another company that has 1 pocket on outside and multiple pockets inside, much more useful and functional.
