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

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Roomy but stiff Was not expecting it to be as stiff as it is. Guess I didn’t read the description closely. Much stiffer than I expected. But still a great bag.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome tote Bag is made well and fits all items for traveling. The zip top is a plus for travel. I use it to carry my fur baby’s food, toys, blankets and all dog things for car travel. I like that I could monogram her name as well, and personalize the tote!
