TRUE QUALITY TAKES TIME

Our totes take a little longer to make because they’re handcrafted, one tote at a time, by a small team of expert stitchers in Maine. We’re working hard to get them out the door to you!

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.
  • 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).
