Why We Love It

Since 1944, we've been making our iconic Boat and Tote in Maine. The same way. Our only way. First introduced as "Bean's Ice Carrier," it's proudly stitched by a dedicated team from high-quality American cotton canvas, with a reinforced canvas bottom and rugged overlapped seams. When it's finished, you'll be able to tell it's an L.L.Bean original by the signature "V-point" detail on both sides. We make your tote one at a time here in Brunswick, Maine. Then it's your turn to make it your own.

Fabric & Care

  • Spot clean.

Construction

  • 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.
  • Double-layer base.
  • Heavy-duty 24 oz. cotton canvas is made in the USA.

Additional Features

  • Add a monogram for a personal touch (or the perfect gift).
  • Secure zip-top makes it a great travel bag.
  • Handcrafted in Maine since 1944.
  • Handcrafted in Maine since 1944, one tote at a time.
  • Natural color with contrast-tone handles in your choice of lengths.
  • Wonderful gift!

    I bought this as a gift after watching the video on LL Bean’s website that showed the making of them. The quality of the tote lived up to the narration and was much appreciated by the person who received it. It’s very well-made and stylish, including the personalization, and is very much appreciated when received.

  • Perfect !

    I am very happy with this purchase. It is exactly what I was looking for. The option to get my name engraved on it at no extra cost to me made it an even better purchase. I will continue to shop at L.L. Bean because I know that I may depend on the quality.
