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

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Holds everything (and maybe the kitchen sink too) so very pleased with this. I am petite and I thought this would be "too much" for me, but it works great! It holds a lot without feeling too heavy. The only change I would make on my next large tote is to do regular handles.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sturdy and functional I bought this tote bag because I carry a small cross body bag and I use the tote to carry the cross body as well as other items like tissues, books, sunglasses. I can leave the tote in the car when shopping and use my small bag. I have tried other totes but appreciate the sturdiness of Bean totes. It stands up to repeated use. It keeps its shape and it just looks so very nice. It is easy to carry and the smaller size is perfect for my needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super Durable! I jumped on the bandwagon and now I'm hooked! These totes are as durable as they say. I love that it holds itself open. I may also order with long handles, because the short handles are better for short carries.
