I have this tote in the large size in the navy blue madras from a few years ago. Bought the pink madras in medium size to carry "stuff". It's so cute and preppy! And the pattern hides dirt better than the plain canvas bags.
Cute pattern, standard quality LL Bean construction. I would have given this a "Great" rating if the straps had been slightly larger. Given the size of the bag, it warrants being slung over the shoulder which one can do ... just barely. An extra inch or two would make this an excellent bag.
I bought this bag in the pink shades for spring. I carry it to work every day and have gotten quite a few compliments on it. It is sturdy and handles quite a load. I am addicted to LLBean tote bags!
