It seems like I am forever collecting tote bags. There are some specialty bags that I use based on my particular travel needs, but there’s nothing like a well-crafted, all-purpose tote to pack everywhere you travel. A tote should be the work horse of your travel bag wardrobe.
The classic Boat & Tote from LL Bean has been around for over 64 years, so you know they’re doing something right!
Maybe it’s the heavy-duty cotton canvas, with double-layer base and handles. This tote is sturdy enough to stand up all on its own, and with double-stitched seams, you won’t have to worry about anything breaking. The bag was originally designed to tote ice, so you know it will taking any beating you can give it.
With a great tote like this, you can use it as a carry on bag on the airplane,pack up your beach gear, make it a road trip bag, take it shopping, let the kids have it for their toys, keep it on the boat, or just stash it away for when you need it. When you’re not traveling, these totes are perfect for the working in the garden, packing groceries, or toting anything around town.
The Boat & Tote bag comes in a natural color, with contrasting color handles in a 10 color choices. You can choose handles in regular or over-the-shoulder length.
