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.

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

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the bag! I love the new color. Wishing they add that color to the zip top bag. I used it this weekend for a getaway to Maine. You can surprisingly put quite a bit of clothes in this bag when you roll each piece. I have several different styles of these bags and enjoy every one of them in different ways. I would highly recommend them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is SO big! I've had LLBean totes in the past but never one this big! It's well made in the LLBean tradition - this thing is rock solid. I expect to be able to put lots of "stuff" in there!
