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

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome bags! I love these bags! I have all sizes, many colors, long handles, short handles, zip top and open top! Love how sturdy they are, and they last forever! Or so far anyway!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I will forever love boat and totes Absolutely love this L.L.Bean Small Boat and Tote with long handles. The quality is excellent, sturdy canvas, strong stitching, and it feels like it will last for years. The small size is perfect for everyday use without being bulky, yet it still holds more than you’d expect. The long handles make it so comfortable to carry on the shoulder, which is a huge plus. Classic, practical, and beautifully made. Definitely worth it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The BEST bag! I bought this for my son and daughter in law and monogrammed their last name on it. They LOVE it! I have two sizes of the Boat and Tote, myself, and they already have one. So, it was a no brainer! The best quality, love how it stands up and holds its shape. And, black is super stylish and looks great monogrammed. Large makes a perfect beach bag for them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Best Gift I would buy an LLBean tote for any gift I could possibly get. Sadly, I've bought so many, no one needs one anymore but I've bought back up ones as well. GREAT product

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best, most versatile bag ever I bought this bag for a friend and we both couldn’t be happier. It delivered in 4 days, the colors and the embroidery came out perfect, and the design of the bag is so so nice. The only thing that could make it better is maybe some pockets or more color options :) buy this bag and you won’t regret it!
