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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Behind the Design: Boat and Tote®

Known for its legendary longevity, our iconic tote has been setting the standard for over 80 years. Watch below to learn more about its legacy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Boat and Tote Bag great as a reusable grocery bag! Was looking for a replacement for flimsy grocery store reusable shopping bags that have split seams with straps snapping and can't take the weight. The medium size Boat and Tote bag was the perfect similar size. It is extremely sturdy and has worked well so far. Ordered a total of four in different colors. If you fold it flat the way it came shipped, it is easy to stack & store (rather than trying to bend the stiff bottom like some shopping bags).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect in every way! This boat and tote is very well made and sturdy. It is quite large and perfect for market errands, beach trips, or road trips. I purchased my first boat and tote a couple of decades ago when I started teaching, but I sadly lost it during one of our many moves. I was very glad to see that the quality of these totes has remained high. Also glad to see that they are still made in Maine. Definitely recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Large tote is so versatile Love the large boat totes, bought 2 as gifts and engraved them with their initials. So sturdy, holds a lot, looks great, and a terrific item that is useful. We have used these totes for years... so spread the joy.
