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. Available in four different sizes with a secure zip top, it also makes a fantastic travel bag.

  • Spot clean.
  • Heavy-duty 24 oz. cotton canvas.
  • Double-layer base.
  • Handles tested to hold up to 500 pounds.
  • Reinforced flat canvas bottom.
  • Overlapped seams are double-stitched with nylon so they won't rot or break.
  • 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.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I love the look of the bag Love ❤️ both my orders! My friend loved her birthday tote had it personally embroidered with her initials and I got one for myself. Made so well, durable and very spacious.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great bag! I bought this to take to ball games and days when I’m constantly on the go. It’s perfect. Love the longer handles and that I can zip it.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not any more I bought 2 of these and ended up returning one. I kept the blue bottomed tote because it can serve a purpose - for a while. These bags are simply not as well made as they were when I bought several of them years ago. The finishing of seams was amateurish, especially the binding on the top of the bag where the fabric was simply left unfinished and will fray sooner rather than later. I do recognize how hard sewing can be,especially with this type of canvas. Unfortunately, the details just aren't as well done as they used to be. It will be a long time before I buy more of these totes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Swim bag and more Short handles are good for hand holding the bag but I found the longer handles fit better on the shoulder
