My mom started shopping at L.L.Bean when we moved to the US 24 years ago and one of her first purchases from L.L.Bean was large red Bean Tote which. We still own it and it has moved with us to different continents, been used by everyone in the family and still is going strong! Definitely proof of the amazing long lasting we L.L.Bean is famous for. I own two boat totes myself, having recently just ordered a medium short handle one monogrammed which I absolutely love. The L.L.Bean tote is a classic and amazing quality and a great price point. Adding a monogram gives a personal touch and I find that these totes also make excellent (Christmas) presents. I highly recommend.
I love these bags and I love having things monogrammed for free using my LL Bean credit card. A local shop which mends and creates all sorts of tents and luggage and other stuff added a pocket on the outside so the bag slips over luggage handles. They put velcro across the bottom of the pocket, so I can use it as a pocket when it's not on my luggage. I would like a place to stand a water bottle but I had already spent almost as much on the alteration as I did on the bag. The person who did the "alterations" was impressed with the quality of the bag. It would be so great to be able to have a bag available with a few customized features, rather than just the outside pocket which one can order in a custom bag from LL Bean. Now I want a super lightweight rollaboard on which to place the bag..smaller and lighter than the medium carryall, which has served me well for several years.
Love these totes! I got these totes in medium, large and extra large. Now I'm getting one in small. I hope the small one is just as useful. The totes are perfect for all occasions, especially for school, beach, laundry, etc. VERY versatile & durable.
These totes are fantastic. I have 3 of them - two large and one small. All of these totes are durable and hold everything you could need. I have used mine for travel - I have two large dogs and it holds everything I could think of bringing for them on a trip. I love all the pockets are inside. This is a must have bag!!!
