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

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My 4th Boat and Tote bag!! This is my fourth Boat and Tote bag! I have a small that I use for knitting, I have a medium that I use to carry all my things for work & a large to store all my knitting yarn & accessories ..this time I got the extra large to carry my laundry & anything else that needs to be distributed in the house! So many good features but my absolute favorite is the upright standing handles!! I’ll be buying more, I’m sure. Fill it up with all kinds of goodies and it makes a wonderful gift!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Boat and Tote bag Great solid sturdy bag. Great for travel as it holds all the extras that don’t fit in your suitcase! I have 3 different sized totes and one I’ve used for 25 years as a bag for our beach towels at the lake!
