Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love BnT's BnT's are the best. I've bought many over the years. This one is just the right size for every day. It holds all the essentials and can even accommodate a tablet/iPad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from In Person Choices Rule Perfect size for travel, and everyday use. Love the strap option! ! Great carry on ! Was glad I went to your Grand Opening in Erie , PA Seeing the difference in bag sizes first hand was a real plus. You really can appreciate the workman ship before making your choice. I’ll be returning to the store for more shopping fun!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Turns head bag I love this tote. I was roomy, easy to care for and not heavy. I love that it has a shoulder strap. I highly recommend this tote not to big and goes well for an everyday bag

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Convinces. I really like the bag, I will say it was hard getting used to since I’ve used mini backpacks since 2020. It does hold a lot, I rarely use the zipper mostly because it is a little stiff but just when I push the thing in. I think the only complaints would be the random strings even though I had already cut the random stings they still appear and the zipper pocket has kindof come off the stitching from where it was attached. I really do like the bag and holds a lot.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exceeded expectations, GET THIS BAG It is the first bag that I have been grabbing all summer. It is so cute, but also very functional. I love what it can fit: wallet, two good size pouches, sunglasses etc. It could fit more, but not much more I need. The navy on white is a good look. Looks great crossbody. It has softened up a lot and I am so glad I got it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect versatile bag This is the perfect versatile bag. I use it as a purse but it fits so much in there when in a rush.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My new “summer” purse!!! I absolutely love it and have gotten so many compliments on it already!! I’d read several reviews of folks who complained about the “stiffness” of the tote. Obviously, you never owned one of the Bean totes!! That “stiffness” is what makes the Bean totes so durable, lasting!! I know this will be my “summer” purse for years to come!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect everyday summer bag! This bag is the perfect size for an everyday summer bag. I’ve gotten more compliments on this than any other bag I’ve owned and it’s been so fun to decorate with charms! I love LL Bean and as always, this was so easy to get monogrammed in store.
